Think Any NFL DC's Will Consult with Chief

On how to defend spread O's? With the increase of spreads (esp zone reads) in the NFL it seems like their DC's are kinda stumped. Chief seems to have a sound approach.

Chavis is pretty awful versus spread O's.

The Denver Broncos consulted with him on the prevent defense.

The reason we do well against the spread is not so much scheme but how physical we are as compared to Oregon, West Virginia and Texas A&M and we forced a lot of turnovers in those games with our more physical and aggressive athletes. Plus those games had significant garbage time production after Miles took foot of the pedal.

Chavis' philosophy on spreads is pretty simple: keep it all in front of you, don't over pursue, and take advantage of mistakes. As a result, A&M and Oregon went apeshit in the yards category, but didn't post too many points and got waxed in the turnover category. And before you say "Oregon put up 27!" The last 7 was in garbage time when our 2nd string was in there.
Chavis' scheme against the spread has improved every year. We couldn't slow down the freak that was Cam Newton. So what? No one could. And it's not like Auburn beat the hell out of us. We were in it the whole game and lost by 7 on a late score in the 4th.
