Only TWO games since Kareem left!!

[UChieffyBugger]

Has a Chiefs running back rushed for a hundred yards in a game. Sunday's 145 by Damien was the first since his 103 at Seattle last season. Honestly I know Andy hates running the ball but that stat is utterly pathetic tbh. I think finally replacing Kareem's production is vital for this team moving forward so we can take the pressure off of Pat, give opposing defenses something else to worry about and also compete for time of possesion. We all saw how weak against the run the Pats were on Sunday and what a good running game can do...so I hope Veach has plans to land a quality RB In the offseason. Most teams have their number one back so the draft could be kind to us tbh with Taylor, Swift, Harris, Dobbins, Ettien etc all there to be had.

Chiefs cut bait. Deal with it. Im so sick of hearing about Kareem ****ing Hunt. Andy's terrible play selection putting everything on Mahomes early in the year, and the complete lack of o line play has been the reason there is no run game.

We never missed a ****ing beat when he left last year, and were an offside penalty from being in the superbowl.

Williams just showed hes a threat to score from ANYWHERE on the ****ing field against a monster defense. Try giving more carries than what, 12 has been his max this year?

Draft o line, not hb.

Lol we can't run the damn ball to save our life and put everything on the shoulders of Pat which has seen him get banged up this year...plus we lose TOP almost every week which cost us against the Colts and Texans...and this guy thinks we don't need a quality RB? SMH

They have a few quality RB's. They don't need an elite one.

They need to invest heavily in the OL.

Andy will find someone. He always does.

Not this season though. KC misjudged what Williams could contribute. I mean it was a nice run, but he's been extremely ineffective most of the season.

I still think KC is capable of having a good running game, but you have to try and run the ball to do that.

That's the hope. I thought Daryl was going to be that guy.

Unless Ettienne is there. Then I'd take him.

There's a reason why Williams was a back-up for all his career before Hunt got cut...time to get s real stud. Hunt prospered with our current O-line so that's no excuse imo.

Shady and Darwin need more carries.

KC is ranked 13th in Yards per attempt and 24th in attempts.

Most teams below KC are awful teams who are getting blown out a lot. Falcons, Bengals, Jets, Dolphins, Bears, Redskins, Browns...

It's not that they can't run, it's that they're just not doing it.

So Shady can fumble more? Hard pass

Say it with me friends...

Andy Reid + Patrick Mahomes = passing team.

We will NEVER pound the ball in a game. NEVER

This.

I don't really know why theres an obsession with running the ball and running backs around here. Sure, get a good one. I'm still going to prefer to have my MVP all timer at QB throw the ball.

Watch any of his highlights against the donx. Dude was always a beast against our rival.

JFC, nobody is asking to run 50/50.

This 'drop back pass every play with no creativity' stuff Andy was doing for weeks was getting Mahomes battered. It's not how Mahomes threw 50 TD's last year either and it was causing the offense to struggle.

JFC, do people not understand how much danger that kind of gameplan puts a QB in? Play action. Misdirection. Draws. Screens. Mixing these things up is more effective than "Hey, let's drop back and throw deep" on every play. It also does more to keep your QB from taking a dozen hits in each game.
