Logan Ryan (who was playing NCB all night) is the only guy that I think can defend that play and that's where the confusion between him and Ward comes in. It looks like Logan took one little false step trying to see through the traffic and that was all she wrote.
So I guess that's the answer - your NCB has to be Trent McDuffie and power through that traffic without missing a beat to bring him down as he makes the catch. But it looks like Ryan takes just a half a heartbeat when Kelce looks like he may be throwing a block and that was enough to let Kelce get to Ryan's outside, forcing Ryan to go inside and around Kelce and create the space needed for Hardman.
All that could've stopped that play was Ryan completely selling out at the snap to get outside, coming over top of Kelce and into that space. Warner never had a chance (and appeared to maybe be spying Mahomes anyway) so it came down to Logan Ryan.
