The goal isn't necessarily to force Drake Maye into an interception or some catastrophic mistake. Sometimes Seattle only needs him to hesitate. A half-second spent trying to identify the coverage can be enough for Leonard Williams, Byron Murphy II, DeMarcus Lawrence or the rest of the front to arrive.

Maye faces Seahawks' coverage confusion scheme designed to create hesitation.

Drake Maye faces a Seahawks defense designed to create hesitation rather than force catastrophic mistakes; even a half-second delay in identifying coverage rotations allows Leonard Williams, Byron Murphy II, DeMarcus Lawrence and the front to arrive. The Patriots have had seven months to study Mike Macdonald's disguises and coverage rotations, but Seattle has equally prepared for New England's adjustments, making this a chess match where Maye's decision-making speed under pressure will be tested.
