Regarding the man v. zone scheme the chargers have played Mahomes 4 times:
213.75 yards per game
62.71 comp pct
7.2 ypa (career average 8.6)
8 TDs
2 INTs
100.1 passer rating
30.3 PPG
They run the most cover 3 in the NFL - a scheme designed to limit the big play but can be shredded underneath through the short passing game. Brady's owned this scheme for years including multiple superbowls & the chargers themselves.
A cover 3 defense with an elite pass rush is an interesting matchup for Mahomes. He will need to be patient & take what the D gives them - Reid as well. He hasn't shredded his division rival that runs an inferior version to this point either. The only QB to really torch the 49ers this season is Brees which makes sense.
