Bet we'll be throwing some wild new defensive looks as well. There have already been hints of this in camp and during the preseason games. The old defense held on pretty well last time we met, but offensive mistakes pulled that game from the Jags grasp. I dig the Chiefs offense, but if we're honest, it isn't anything new. It's predicated on quick plays, speed after the catch, and capitalizing on defensive gaps. I suspect we'll see a ton of our new 3/4 looks as long as the Jags can continue to get pressure with the minimal lineman. However, the most important thing is keeping their offense off the field — something we just couldn't do with the Boat.

It's not that the Chiefs offense is some new fangled way of doing offense, it's that Andy always has some really different types of playcalls, sequencing and personnel uses when he's given a long time to plan. The Pats game week 1 of 2017 is a good example. He altered the offense with a lot of new plays and made Smith reach new heights as a QB. So Wash will have to be coy of what gameplan he may be hit with.

I'd be surprised if the Jags didn't throw out looks like that. The key for us will be how do we protect the likes of Wilson and Quincy from being exploited by Andy, making sure we make our tackles and screens and of course keeping everything in front of us. 


Defense did play well last year but Andy and Pat have experience Vs the defense now and i have far more faith in their ability to gameplan and adjust Vs Todd Washs.
