2. Pressure up the middle. You have to generate pressure with 4. Use stunts, twists, fake pressure and drop outs to bring pressure up the middle of the Oline. Pressure from edges will cause Mahomes to leave the pocket, which can be problematic in and of itself. Pressure up the gut is more difficult to escape. Additionally, the Chiefs Oline is weakest in the middle, so this strategy makes sense in a couple ways.

Also need to either have a lot of DL depth or keep him off the field with a solid offense. DL's run a lot v the chiefs.
