Chiefs are second highest in the league with a 63.3% conversion rate when rushing on 3rd and short (3yards or less in that analysis). This is arguably the best interior o-line on the NFL. Pacheco is not afraid of contact and smart/agile enough to pop out of the pile if it is too clogged up. There is no need for rugby scrum or anything fancy. If Reid/Nagy really want to pass on 3rd and short, it should at least be off play action.
