Protecting the sidelines in four minute situations where a team is trying to climb back in it late. Their handling of the final drive in that game was a textbook example of how not to play prevent defense.
When you prevent the key is making the offense burn clock in exchange for yards. So yielding 20+ yard sideline throws is the one thing you cannot do. This is because then the offense gets the field position without the exchange of clock plus they get a reset. The secondary needs to work on this and get it down, because with this offense they are probably going to be in a lot of close situations late.
And that is right--The still I posted showed Kendrick too far inside. He simply blew it by formation.
