We saw a lot of this sort of chart in the first half of 2020.  Chris Simms quipped it was the "Josh Allen Laser Light Show".  Then it largely disappeared last season - whether because Emmanual Sanders really couldn't fill the "John Brown Speedster" role, or because teams decided to transition to a rush 4/2 high safety/flood the middle look.

 

Compare and contrast to the last 2 weeks

In addition to winning the game, I think Dorsey wanted to make it clear to KC that they'd best worry about the deep pass.

Erik Turner of Cover1 shares the latter view:

 

"I don't think it's a coincidence that Davis cut this route a couple times for big plays leading into the big matchup against the Chiefs."

I think the laser light show suffered from teams going 2 high against us.  Early on in 2020 peeps were still playing man.
