Brown started the season as the primary nickel back who played against any three-receiver set.

And since the Colts use many three-receiver sets, Strait knows he may have a busy night defending Manning's passes.

We expanded it from a three-receiver set to a four-receiver set to a five-receiver set.

The Giants like to run three-receiver sets.

"I'm not going to go with a three-receiver set," he said.

That three-receiver set has 412 career catches, 402 by Toomer.

Soon after, he was employed as the third wideout when the Jets used a three-receiver set.

When we saw them in that three-receiver set, that's when we called the blitz.

Imagine, for example, the Giants opening a game with a three-receiver set instead of the usual run-based formation.

The proliferation of big-play receivers has spread to the college level, where more teams rely on the pass and use three-receiver sets.
