Defenses prepare to stop Mahomes. Running lanes are open.
We should almost NEVER run the ball. Period. I'm talking 90% of the time pass the ball. There is a great Athletic article about this. Even when they KNOW you are passing, it's STILL way way more effective than running the ball. STOP running the ball unless it's 4th and inches, or the defense is just giving you an easy 10 yard gain.

Wiliams is actually at 4.0 YPC in his career and ran at 5.1 YPC last year for us. 8.3 career Receiving- so not so Frightening.
So if running lanes are open- why would you not pound the ball and control the clock?
People were not impressed with Priest Holmes before he came here either. Williams is going to be a big weapon for us.
