So explain to me how Taven “plugs the middle of the field to eliminate any crossers or any low holes” on this play in question.

He doesn’t.

It’s not Myles Jack responsibility to do that. It’s Taven’s. That’s why it’s a bad play call against one of the better TEs in the league and Tannehill read it perfectly. The fact that it fails more than succeeds with 2 different teams should be reason enough to toss it from the playbook.
