Time of possession. Ball control.
Big break off runs are nice and Charles is certainly capable, but if you can't move the ball at four yard chunks and eat clock and smash it in while in the Red Zone and protect your quarterback in the process, you ain't gonna win in this league.
You also have to remember that the Chiefs were #10 in the league in sacks this past season. That's not too shabby. We are pressuring the opposing quarterback. However, we aren't plugging the run or protecting our own QB.
Trenches. Start digging.

I agree. We have several holes that need some attention. And we can all argue which one is the biggest need. But for my money the most glaring weakness this past season was the inablility to convert on 3rd/4th and short, and most of the time not even come close when we ran the ball.
