Whole defense needs an overhaul. I don’t think the defense was particularly awful today, but there were still a lot of serious WTF moments that just make you wonder what on earth this old man is thinking. [Reply]
Ravens have only scored under 20 points once this year in terrible weather vs. Cleveland. We held them to 24 points with a 14 yard drive after a punt return. Our D wasn't great, but wasn't 2003 awful either and stepped it up late. [Reply]
I noticed the Ravens had LB CJ Mosley covering Tyreek Hill multiple times today. It’s like this is the new NFL.
Steelers had a LB covering Keenan Allen 9X last week and got killed. TJ Watt got killed by Sammy Watkins when we played them.
Von Miller has been in coverage noticeably a lot.
"Chiefs fans are really, really mad that the team is bringing back Bob Sutton". This was the headline last year on Jan 27..dude needs to retire at the end of the year. [Reply]

Colts had their LB’s covering a WR today too.
I guess this is just how it is now.
It's called 'zone coverage', and it's apparently a brand-new concept for a lot of people... [Reply]

This is man coverage
Patrick Mahomes missed this one badly. Sammy Watkins had easy 39-yard TD. Dusted total mismatch OLB T.J. Watt in coverage. Watkins still rebounded big yesterday with 6-100-0 on 7 targets after a predictably sleepy Week 1. #Chiefspic.twitter.com/fIHTDZVE2H

It depends on the coverage call. Lots of zones use pattern matching principles where if certain receivers press vertical, a LB has to try to match to take away easy seam throws. [Reply]
The Chiefs unveil their new defensive scheme on Thursday night!
Houston-Nnadi-Bailey-Jones with Speaks and Ford, spelling DE on passing downs/rotational, Jones popping inside with Williams in rotation inside keeping everyone fresh. Passing downs would be Houston-Bailey-Jones-Ford
