Damn, you don't anything about football or the Chiefs . . .
In the six seasons Andy Ried has been HC, we've had three 1,000+ yard season rushers.
2013: J. Charles 1,287 yards; team rushing for 2056 yards on the season.
2014: J. Charles 1,033 yards; 1918 yards
2015: Charles gets hurt, but the team rushes for 2,044 yards on the season
2016: Spencer Ware rushes for 921 yards; team rushes for 1,748 yards
2017: K. Hunt rushes for 1,327 yards; team rushes for 1,903 yards
2018: K. Hunt rushes for 827 yards in 112 games; team rushes for 1,855 yards
2019: team rushes for 1,569 yards.
So the Chiefs running game has been averaging right around 2,000 yards/season since Andy took over, except this year when our whole OL got hurt and so did our three starting RBs. Four if you count Spencer Ware.
