Jason Marshall Jr.

So yeah, You see the flashes, and it's everybody being on the same page.

There was a number of times where kind of the spacing, and I think Rasheed Rice had another one that Jason Marshall looked like he was going to pass off he was making a call as this route was coming across the middle and it looked like whoever was on that side I couldn't tell you from the TV copy in real time I couldn't tell you who it was but those are the kinds of things like expecting and understanding where you can help and drop somebody off and let them get picked up by playing somebody with better leverage and That's a part of this experience, and certainly I think as you look at just what the defense did from a performance standpoint and a yardage standpoint and a points allowed standpoint, they made good strides in that regard, and I think that was sorely needed with how things went last week against San Francisco.

The defense adjusted and made stops.

The Chiefs finished the game's biggest sequence.

Yeah, they

got cornerbacks Jason Marshall Jr.

We all know who he is, of course.

Don't even have to...

Oh, we all know Jason Marshall.

You know Jason Marshall Jr., of course, yeah.

Juju Brents, of course.

Juju Brents.

He's got the third highest yards after catch.

He runs almost half his routes from the slot, and he's gonna match up against slot corner Jason Marshall.

Jason Marshall's allowing a 100% completion rate in his coverage so far, including a touchdown.

The passer rating in Marshall's coverage is 149.

Rashee Rice, A grade.

And in an offense where Patrick Mahomes is showing that he has the ability to go downfield and attack, that's going to open up running lanes too because as you said it's a pick your poison situation with Kansas City right now in both the running game and the passing game

yeah and that's where for Miami coming in with all the inexperience that they have on the back end they have a second year starter at safety in Dante Trader their other starting safety is a fifth round rookie uh Chris Johnson's a rookie corner is a first round draft choice and has done some really nice things but is still playing and starting in his third career game and Jason Marshall was a fifth-round rookie from last year who's the other starter in base.

So all kinds of inexperience that if the Dolphins choose to play it similar to how they did San Francisco where they're going to stay in base and they'll have three linebackers on the field and kind of go with the heavier boxes, you think about, okay, with the chemistry that Pat and Travis have, what a tall task for those players plus a rookie Mike linebacker and Jacob Rodriguez to try to combat that chemistry with.

And I think that is one of the tallest tasks of this game is having that answer when there's already been a lot of space that you've had to deal with.
