I’m saying when they’re healthy and with the talent they have, it shouldn’t matter what defenses do they should be able to just overpower them |

Call plays within the context of the game. You can’t just force the pass game because it’s our philosophy. Our running game is massively improved over last season; there’s a reason the team focused on this. Teams are selling out to stop the passing game, and leaving light boxes, and we are rightly exploiting them. I don’t give a shit if we passed the ball all over the yard last year or against the Ravens, that doesn’t mean it’s ALWAYS what we should do. Yes, we should want our passing game to be the ultimate strength of our team, but it doesn’t have to be the reason we win every game.

You seem to be overly concerned with margin of victory or something. |

8 defensive backs in zone can cover the entire field pretty tightly. There's just not ever going to be very many wide windows. Pat and company are great but they can't defy the laws of physics. You basically want them to throw the ball even if there's nobody open and that's just not going to work at a high percentage. They can't create openings where none exist without forcing the defense out of their alignments. And you do that by running the ball. |

Once they get to the AFC champ game and super bowl against other elite teams is all I care about anymore. It’s 1% problems for sure. They could run the wildcat and beat a lot of these teams they’re way more talented. |

If teams run this zone defense for another 5 or 6 games and the Chiefs win every single one of them, what do you think is going to happen in the playoffs? Do you think teams are going to sit back in that zone and let the Chiefs run the ball down their throats just to "keep the game close"? At some point, the strategy has to actually prove that the Chiefs can be BEATEN, not just get close. Close in the playoffs is still going to send you home for the offseason. |

What conclusion can we come to from this? Even if a defense KNOWS your passing the ball it still yields more yards per play and points expected than running.

Sustaining a dominant running game is the ultimate counter punch to the way teams are scheming to limit Pats ability to take games over. We probably have the most talented set of RBs in the league, I’m sure Andy intends on using them.
I also think that plays to the strength of this OL. These guys seem to want to run block and are better at run blocking over pass blocking. At least at this point, that seems to be accurate. |

I love watching Mahomes sling it more than anything but it might not actually be the best way to win games. We're undoubtedly better taking a more balanced approach. I have no doubt there will be games where we finally face some tough competition and may need to rely on some Mahomes magic but it would be great if we could make the load as light for him as possible. |

Weve done this the last 2 games in shit weather without arguably our best lineman when healthy and Watkins. Not many teams would be able to put up points on the board without those 2.
