Ravens bread and butter was man coverage, with 2 high or 1 high against Buffalo and it kept them to 10 points scored. [Reply]

The Chiefs will play a lot more zone than the Ravens but they're going to disguise that pre-snap and give them a lot of man looks. [Reply]

Yes, as long as we disguise it.
How much zone do you expect? I agree that we will play more zone than Baltimore but hopefully not too much. [Reply]

I was watching a video KChiefs1 posted the other day and he said part of the reason the Bills had some success later in the game was because the Chiefs weren't being as coy with their blitzes. They started to telegraph a bit, allowing the Bills to move the ball. [Reply]

I honestly don't know - Spags is a master at mixing stuff up from one game to the next.
Our D coverages employ both. We have the bodies to run man a lot and I hope we do.
Fine with zone as long as it is not obvious because if Allen sees it like Indy then Buffalo fans get the QB they have been telling us about.
If we do play more zone I hope we also employ some of what Tennessee runs. It is terrible against most QB's but very effective against Allen. [Reply]

Yes, Sorenson kept bailing right away and Allen keyed in on the fact it was zone. That allowed him to go right up the field. [Reply]
if Alabama was playing Northwest Missouri State at home for the National Championship, Skip's job would be to argue how NWMSU has a chance.
Not sure how much of his own BS he actually believes in, but I guess it gets clicks or else this is what would be on at 11pm on a Saturday night and not NFL Matchup (if that's even a thing now). [Reply]

He's just a butthurt contrarian douche who has managed to out-Kornheiser Kornheiser. Takes a lot to make Shannon look like a genius, but Skip manages to pull it off. [Reply]
