One move and go routes.
Those are more viable now that we have a guy who can win those cuts in Brown. But what you don't have are those really good zone breakers that create confusion on the back end. The drags that require the WR get to the other side of the field, for instance. The deep crossers.
Corner routes? Yeah, you still have those. You can use smash concepts and wreck a cover 2 for instance (can get cover 4 as well). If Kelce turns it back up, you can really do some work on that corner route. Worthy could get it done from the slot.
But those get chewed up by Cover 3. So then you want to go to like a Y Cross or something to get downfield and you just can't do that with these short drops.
I think we'd see a lot of cover 3 looks (which also allows that safety to come down and play the run better) and with the short drops, we have less and less that can attack those.
