The run defense has now gone past the stage of merely being about playing well schematically, but there's a psychological aspect to it now too.
Opposing teams simple believe they can run on 'em, and they'll continue to so knowing that even if they're bottled up a little, they'll start breaking the runs open.
And the Chiefs D is in danger of, or already believe that they can't stop the run. The more this continues the more "Ugghhh here we go again" will set in.
31 Teams in the league believe they can run on you at will and you're no longer so sure you can even stop it. Bad, bad news.
