Nix's 59.2% completion, 5.8 YPA, 80.7 rating from pocket; Chiefs plan to contain his 110 rushing yards.

The source emphasizes that Kansas City's defensive strategy should be to keep Bo Nix in the pocket, as the threat comes when he escapes. Nix has 110 rushing yards and two touchdowns this season, including a 62-yard touchdown run against Arizona last week when he finished with 73 yards on seven carries. However, from inside the pocket, Nix has completed 59.2% of his passes while averaging only 5.8 yards per attempt, with seven touchdowns, three interceptions and an 80.7 passer rating. The Chiefs should make him beat them by consistently throwing from inside the pocket, suggesting his pocket passing is a weakness to exploit.
