Patience against zone coverage
What I’ve seen on tape: Teams are teaching Zone Defense 101 against Mahomes and the Chiefs right now. Align safeties deep, play with zone discipline and limit the explosive ability of Hill, Kelce and the Chiefs’ weapons. Plus, with more defenses playing 2-man (two-deep, man-under), we’re seeing aggressive, grabby coverage underneath — especially against Kelce — with two safeties putting a tent on top of the secondary.
