Owen Daniels has been hurt and recovering this season. He's played some but to me hasn't looked like himself yet. Even if he's fully healthy, he's not the threat DClark is. By then, and after dealing with Clark.. I'd hope we have a good idea on how to contain him.
It all depends on DJ and Berry's continued improvement.

DJ hasn't shown that he can cover a TE consistently over the years and Berry is a very young guy just learning about the NFL. If both can make a leap during the next two weeks of preparation, it may affect Clark's ability to get open and score at will.

I'm not suggesting he won't score (he tore up the Giants because of their safety issues) but hopefully, things will become clearer for Berry over the course of the bye so that it doesn't happen repeatedly.

Just to be clear, I'm in no way, shape or form down on Berry, but he's essentially a college senior playing in the NFL. It's going to take at least 10 games or more for everything to click and most likely, his entire rookie campaign.
