This is due to their individual talent as well as having Mahomes under center and Reid calling plays. The Chiefs didn't need to throw a TD to curb stomp the Colts. They didn't need Williams to have a break-away reception to curb stomp the Colts. Reid will crush the Pats defense if they go light. Williams is only one tool in Reid's toolbox. Hill and Watkins are deadly, big play options in the run game. If Williams does what he did against the Colts, the rest of the offense should be in good shape. The real question for the Chiefs will be how the defense performs. Recent changes in the secondary are gelling and the defense seems to be improving over the last few weeks. Arrowhead will be rocking and that's not going to help the Pats' offense. Especially the o-line on passing downs. Brady might need to wear two flak jackets. Should be a great game.

I don't think hunt is better. But Williams fills a gap that actually helps our offense in a way we needed. He's effective enough as a pure runner and very effective when defenses give him too much. But he adds a big element to our short passing game which we needed. We had some very very slight hiccups for a few games but Williams and Watkins helped us develop some quick and short passing options. We may be known for our chunk plays. But we surgically carved indy up with a quick offense.
