You apparently don't realize that part of the reason the running game struggled at times (especially during that mid-season slump) was because teams were stacking the box and keying on the running game. Alex Smith and his struggles and short passing made teams stop respecting the passing game. IMO, Pat Mahommes should make defenses respect the passing game on the whole field. And that, in turn, should open up the running game. It's not just about blocking.
