The Chiefs threw to their backs out of the backfield a lot last night and had a ton of success doing so. Hopefully the Bengals get Mixon/Evans deeply involved in the passing game. I also think this could be a breakout game for Tyler Boyd out of the slot as well.
I honestly think this is a good matchup for the Bengals. The Raiders defensive line is pretty mediocre and in the middle of the league in pressures.
Chiefs had a good game plan, the Bengals have the personal and ability to copy it.
Actually the Raiders play a ton of cover 3 and they were fighting their urges to get back into it throughout the night and got caught a few times. Do not expect the Raiders to play much two high at all as Abrams is not a good cover safety and they tend to use him as more of a robber/enforcer. Every team in the NFL right now is trying to play the Chiefs in two high with four man pressures because others have had success but that doesn't make every team in the NFL is a two high team that doesn't blitz.
