It's a good breakdown but I don't have the same problems with it as you
The first play on 3rd and 1, Zayne is covering for blitzing linebackers and he needs to be able to cover both the h back on one side and the slot on the other so he fell off. Warner could be up a little but on the 25 the last thing you want to give up is an easy home run. To prevent the slot from getting the 1st you have 2 chances, Pili getting a pd or 32 getting off his block from the corner, neither happened so they converted a 3rd and 1, not a big deal.

The 3rd and 3 at the end. 2 guys were in great position to make that play but they both lost their 1 on 1 ones, you mentioned Butch, but Zayne needed to shed his block and make the play. The safeties being 11(not 15) yards off the ball still allows them to make a play behind the los if they read it right because they're able to attack downhill rather than laterally. I'm not sure I could find clip of a team with all 11 defenders being no more 5 yards off the ball in that scenario, I will pay attention to some other games as I watch to see if any other coach plays it like you're suggesting because I could be wrong
