I've seen a few poke at Mahomes' average air yards last year, especially on TDs. Part of that is the offense evolving to handle the 2-deep safety looks, but some of it is also the offense evolving to cover for Wylie and Brown.
That's exactly what the Bengals did last year. The teams mirror each other in consecutive years on how they needed to adapt.
