With his defense facing a Kansas City Chiefs offensive attack with myriad weapons, Green Bay Packers defensive coordinator Mike Pettine did what he loves best: he put a lot of defensive backs on the field. The Packers went heavy on the nickel and dime alignments on Sunday night, and although they struggled mightily in the second quarter, Pettine ended up getting a largely solid performance out of his group.
Matt Moore is no Patrick Mahomes, that much is sure. But Chiefs head coach Andy Reid did a great job scheming players open for him in that second quarter, a 15-minute span that saw the Chiefs to from down 14-10 to up 17-14 at the half.
