It does.

But 7.6 yards/play, while fantastic for a runningback, is simply not that good for a QB.

Mahomes had 30 plays (with his rushes) for 295 yards. So roughly 9.8 yards/play. That's 2 full yards/play better than Jackson's BEST attribute - running the football.

Meanwhile, when you factor in the passing game for Jackson, he was under 7 yards/play in total. Essentially 3 yards/play less than Mahomes.

It just further emphasizes how inefficient running the football is. And how inefficient a running QB is. Jackson ran the ball as well as any QB to ever do it and was STILL an inefficient offensive player for them.
