Film Room

While the Bucs' rush got a lot of the headlines after Tampa Bay's win in the Super Bowl, Derrik Klassen shows how linebackers Devin White and Lavonte David deserve just as much credit for what they did in zone coverage against Kansas City's most dangerous receivers.

Tampa Bay did not have much luck shutting down Patrick Mahomes and Kansas City in their first meeting. Derrik Klassen breaks down the film in search of answers for defensive coordinator Todd Bowles and is left scratching his head.

Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady is, of course, good, but his coaches have made his life much easier by using motion to expose defense's coverage schemes, and with play-action schemes that make for simple throws like his touchdown to Cameron Brate.

Though Kansas City defeated Buffalo in Week 6, they showed that their heavy usage of man coverage schemes left them vulnerable to Josh Allen scrambles. Derrik Klassen shows how the Chiefs defense has adjusted since then -- and why the Bills offense may still have the advantage.

Yes, there's more to Baltimore than Lamar Jackson. Derrik Klassen shows how Wink Martindale's defense shut down Derrick Henry and the Titans in the wild-card round -- and how they might do the same to Buffalo in the divisional round.

Derrik Klassen shows how Bills offensive coordinator diagnosed Miami's defensive schemes early in the game -- and how he found and exploited weaknesses in those schemes, making life easy for Josh Allen and company.

Seattle's 20-9 division-clinching win over the Rams was the latest in a string of excellent performances for the Seahawks defense. Derrik Klassen shows how linebacker K.J. Wright was used so effectively against L.A. ... and why that scheme may not be so effective against other offenses.

There are many reasons why the Los Angeles Rams were beaten by the lowly New York Jets, but few were more damaging than the performance of their quarterback.

Why has Josh Jacobs been struggling lately? Derrik Klassen finds that the Raiders -- from interior linemen such as center Rodney Hudson out to the tight ends -- are suddenly failing to win their blocks.

Monday night's loss to Washington showed that Ben Roethlisberger and the Steelers have some serious flaws -- and how Ron Rivera's improving defense was perfectly built to exploit them.
