Apparently, Vance Jospeh must have thought coming into the Chargers game that his defense would be able to stop pro Bowl WR Keenan Allen’s patented motion out passes by having one of the CBs chase the motion through traffic in man coverage.

The Chargers’ first easy 3rd down conversion of the game featured Keenan Allen motioning to his right with CB Antonio Hamilton trying to chase him through the second level.
