So what you get with the Chiefs are guys like Jackson who are asked to read and diagnose plays, and then asked to get off blocks to make plays.
Meanwhile, JJ Watt is asked to attack a gap, forcing O-Linemen to react to him.
Read and react is an atequated idea that was designed to stop the running game and put teams into third and 6 or longer situations.
Then, when we do get teams into third and long situations, we get into this ridiculous 2-3-6 scheme that only sends 3 guys after the passer.
So what we do is try to stop the run in a passing league, and then try to defend the pass rather than attack the passer.
It's just a ****ing abortion.
