To your second point, you don't want to control the clock if you are a superior team. If you are a better team, you want as many possessions as possible. That would be a valid argument if you weren't better than the other team. That is why you see especially in college basketball and college football the inferior team slow the game down all the time. For some reason it works for Virginia (basketball) but that is one of the only anomalies. Slowing the game down and giving PATRICK MAHOMES & FUTURE HOF ANDY REID LESS possessions instead of more allows more luck into the game.

Yes and he will be playing with these guys the next two years as well. So if he averages 5.1 yards a carry again that gives you a Lot of flexibilty.
You are wanting the Chiefs to be a 1-dimensional passing only team. In bad weather and Playoff time- you Have to be able to run the ball. And control the clock to close games out which we were terrible at last year.
I really don't care what he did on all those shitty Miami teams- he looked pretty explosive for us during the playoffs and will be a big weapon when teams try and blitz Mahomes. I think you will be happy with his production this year- not just running but catching the ball as well.
