According to PFF, Deebo is one of the best WR vs. zone and one of the worst against man.
Against man Deebo catches 33% of attempted passes to him for little damage.
Against zone the number skyrockets to 77% with big damage as we’ve all seen.
This is across the league vs. good and bad DBs.
Knowing this, the choice with Deebo seems to be - allow him to run free in your zones and then run over your defenders/make 1st downs/score TDs or man up on him and reduce his/the niner’s effectiveness.
