We still need to primarily be a passing team, because Mahomes/Kelce/Hill. Some effective counterpunching with the run would be nice though.

Yep.
Look, you have to make people pay for not playing you honest. There will be games, particularly early on, where we probably shove it down their throats. That won't mean Andy's changed his stripes, and by the end of the year I'm sure the run/pass balance will still skew heavily towards pass.
But you've got to force defenses to play you straight up. If they want to drop 7 you absolutely steamroll them until they stop doing that.
