Statistical evidence? Let's compare units: "Front" players (not a 1x1 since we're comparing a 43 to a 34 base scheme) Bosa, Ingram, Tillery, Joseph vs. Campbell, Wolfe, Judon, Williams This is a nod to the Chargers at this point, and it really wasn't close. Joseph is still a run-plugging machine, and he and Williams are similar. Bosa is better than Campbell at this point in their careers, Judon and Ingram are equivalent, with perhaps a slight edge to Judon, and Tillery is better than Derek Wolfe is, was, or ever will be. LB Again, we're comparing different fronts, but let's use this grouping: Murray, Perryman, Kyzir White vs. Queen, McPhee, Fort I give Murray the edge here over Queen (bigger, drafted higher), and rest are equivalent... good scheme fits who execute well. Secondary Peters and Humphrey are an outstanding CB duo and better than the Chargers' best 2 CB (Chris Harris and Heyward), but the Chargers have major advantages beyond their top two corners. Their 3rd CB is much better than the Ravens' current options, and they're stronger at safety with Adderly and/or Desmond King back there. |

And to build onto your point Duncan, while I think Peters and Humphrey are a better duo too, they are not as reliable when it comes to staying assignment sound as LA’s corners. In that stagnant scheme where preventing big plays is the #1 goal, you can count on Harris and Hayward more to do that IMO.
If we’re assuming the Ravens try to replicate a zone heavy game plan. |

I find it hard to believe the Ravens are going to drastically change what they do.

The Ravens really just don’t match up well with the Chiefs. Watching them and I don’t see any difference from last year on both sides of the ball. If the Chiefs don’t make stupid mistakes they’ll win. The Chargers match up better with us than the Ravens.

I really think our secondary is going to be lethal by mid-season.
Breeland, Ward, Fenton, and Sneed at CB. Mathieu and a healthy in-shape Thornhill at safety. That’s gotta be a top 5-10 group. |

I actually think Fenton has been okay out there so far. Yeah he technically gave up that TD but Sorenson left his man and totally ****ed him there.
I like him against possession type receivers. Great value for a late round pick |

I especially like him as our 4th best corner. We’ve had PLENTY of teams in the past where he would’ve been our best.

Fenton did his job there. That’s also a ridiculous throw that I’m sure Fenton just didn’t expect Herbert to attempt.

We have 29 missed tackles in the league so far. Second worst. Only team worse than us is the Jets with 40

Nothing he said refutes my post.
The Chiefs were in a 3-deep zone. The slot WR got separation in his zone and Fenton bit up instead of staying in his zone. EDIT: Nevermind. Later in the analysis he said the DB is definitely trying to hedge. So he absolutely agrees with me. |
