I agree that more McDuffie in the slot, more man coverage, and less cover 2 are all likely and will change the looks the Jags get.
Jacksonville also runs a lot of horizontal passing game, quick screens to the perimeter. KC typically handles that well because the corners are all physical and tackle better than average for CB.

Yeah, the Jags had run 26 plays for 90 yards and had mustered 5 punts and one missed 51-yard field goal (set up by great field position - drive was 7 plays for 21 yards) by the time it was 20-0.
Trailing 20-7 at halftime, the Jags came out and ran a 17-play drive that killed 9 minutes and terminated with a FG to make it 20-10. The Chiefs responded by killing the rest of the 3rd quarter to score a TD and take a 3-score lead into the 4th quarter. Game was effectively over at that point unless the Chiefs did Charger things.
