"I feel like he makes plays with his legs. I feel like he's comfortable using his legs."
"They fly around. They're relentless," Maye said Wednesday. "They're great up front, and great on the back end. They've got great linebackers. They're great all around. They have great coaching. So we've got our hands full, and we know it's going to be a tough game."
Drake Maye enters the divisional playoff game as a rising second-year playmaking quarterback who uses his mobility to extend plays. The Houston Texans defense has limited opponents to 277.2 yards per game and generated 47 sacks this season. Edge rushers Will Anderson (12 sacks) and Danielle Hunter (15 sacks) anchor a pass rush that has pressured top quarterbacks, including eight sacks on Josh Allen in one game. The Texans rely on zone coverages (Cover 3 and Cover 4) while allowing their defensive line to attack the quarterback. A fast, physical linebacker group and an anchored secondary with Derek Stingley Jr. add to the unit's disruption.
