These guys are gonna focus on stopping Kelce first. Having speed like Worthy/Hollywood forces the defense to act quickly passing off since they are in zone coverage. And bet your ass that Andy will use the threat of Hollywood/Kelce deep push LB’s and DB’s back which opens them up to be exploited by speed.
We saw Andy dice it up already. He knows. There’s a reason he laid off Worthy after one drive. He was showing too much.

You run the Steelers game offense.
We lived on that stuff that attacked the edges of the zone. That's how we were able to push the ball downfield without actually having to hold the ball at all.
Houston saw it and adjusted (I was a little surprised they were able to do so -- I didn't give their DC enough credit). Will Buffalo do the same?
They really should. As I said in the Humphries thread - it isn't a secret why that stuff worked for us even with the quick drops and fast developing plays. Is Buffalo going to try for the Cover 4 kind of stuff that makes us switch it up? Will they go with the Cover 3 stuff that I think we can get to a bit? Cover 2 that I think we can absolutely shred?
Gonna be interesting to see. Like you, I doubt they go man heavy like Houston did. If for no other reason than they simply don't have the personnel to do it well.
