That's the quandary their offense puts you in. Hunt is a major running threat which requires your LBs to plug the gaps quick. But at the same time be mindful of Kelce's speed up the seam. The LBs have to avoid biting on the fakes yet be quick to read and attack. Not easy.
The key for us might be Nicholson. Dude is big and rangey. Maybe you shade him to Kelce and let Brown worry about Hunt.
I'd like my chances there, we'd just need to make sure our corners handled Hill without giving up the huge play. That and keep containment on Alex Smith. He'll get out and run if the rush is undisciplined.
This opponent deserves a lot of respect but for once it seems like we might have the talent to hang defensively.
