That switch from keys to zone coverage is what I feel the official's manual does a poor job of emphasizing. We have man-to-man coverage at the snap based on our keys. We may even have two eligibles that we need to watch but that once the ball is snapped and the initial contact is done we need to switch to zone coverage. So that even if, as a wing, our key is not the receiver right in front of us we will probably have him in our zone within seconds. It is not so horribly difficult for us to make sure he didn't step OOB during his route even when he wasn't our key because BJ can't see if he was OOB.
