This is how we need to play to win every week.
Look, the 2019-2020 offenses were a lot of fun, but defenses adjusted. They're forcing Mahomes (and the other young stud QB's) to have to be patient, consistent, and execute long drives to beat them.
Run the ball. Hit the short and intermediate stuff. Execute. Then you'll get some deep shots open up.
It's just the way it is. Good to see Big Red stick with the run, and the quicker hitting runs most of the game. That needs to be the backbone moving forward.
Make them pay for dropping 7 and 8.
If Mahomes scares them so much they're willing to just give up 6ypc, then that's totally fine. It's still 10 yards to a first down. 7 or 8 to a TD.
Football is still football.
