3rd/4th and 1 Conversions

[Shoes]

A lot was made in Sunday's AFC Championship game about the Chiefs inability to convert in 3rd & 1 and 4th & 1 scenarios. If I remember correctly Romo said the Chiefs are hovering around 50% in conversion percentage in these short yardage situations. The Chiefs are 2nd in the NFL at 48.7% in all 3rd down scenarios which makes it seem bizarre that Mahomes & company are not converting 3rd/4th and short with more regularity.

So I turn to the prolific armchair offensive coordinators of Chiefsplanet to answer these questions:

1. Why do you think the Chiefs struggle in these situations?
2. Any adjustments you would make vs Philly in the Superbowl?
3. Gun to your head, 4th & 1 in the Superbowl, what are you dialing up?

I think in that case he would or Patrick would do it himself even if it's not called. At that point,you have to just throw all caution to the wind and do what you have to do.

Remember him taking that huge hit in the SB against the 49ers? That scared the shit out of me, but he ****ing killed Jimmy Ward instead lol. It looks like he's gonna try to slide, but starts too late.
