Taylor scored twice on pin-pull concepts exploiting Chiefs' edge-setting.

Taylor scored two touchdowns against the Chiefs on pin-pull concepts in Week 2. On both touchdowns, Indianapolis used pin-pull concepts to create a wide edge, and the Chiefs struggled to set the edge. On the first touchdown, the center and right tackle pulled around the edge, with the tackle easily widening linebacker Tranquill, and tight end Tyler Warren sealed rookie defensive end R Mason Thomas inside. On the second touchdown, the Chiefs didn't travel the corner with motion, keeping Kristian Fulton in the run fit, but Fulton got pancaked by Quentin Nelson, and the Chiefs' edge defenders couldn't shed blocks.
