This move doesn't do anything to fix the problems exposed in this offense the past 2-3 seasons.

Actually, I’m pretty sure the Chiefs ended the year number 1 in the NFL converting 3rd and 1 or less. I know it felt like our short yardage game sucked, but we were actually doing really well at it. The last stat I saw for it was during the Miami game where we were #1, converting 89% of 3rd and 1 or less attempts. They showed the stat as we attempted and converted another 3rd and 1 so it got a little better after that. Interesting and surprising, isn’t it?
