This is misleading.
The Chiefs are THE BEST in the league on run success rate, eg does your run game get you to 2nd and manageable on a first down carry...
Meaning, does it make it 2nd and 6 or less. We are literally number 1 in the league at that and also converting third and short with runs
However......
We're dead last in explosive runs. The longest run we've had all year is 11 yards (by a back).
So basically, we're lining up, and grounding people into beef and no one can stop that, but we're not getting the big runs. Which really doesn't matter if we're basically holding onto the ball for most of the game and the defense is pulverizing the opponents offense.
