The Chiefs running game is usually inconsistent. It's never been a big strength because they'll always pass first with Reid. They rarely run behind the FB and frequently run out of shotgun. Much of their yardage comes from reverses and Mahomes' scrambles. Short yardage runs are the most frustrating because the interior OL is supposed to be good.
Regarding Sunday night, my impression was the Bengals stacked the box, as they should have. Whenever KC tried to run, it went nowhere.
