I've been pounding this drum since Hunt was released. The running game has not missed a beat IMHO.

Hyde absolutely loves our offensive system. From what I’ve heard he’s never been this excited with any other team.

I posted in another thread that I thought he was going to have a huge year. Our running game will be able to pound the ball if defenses are going to play a safety deep all the time so Reek won't burn them. Hopefully, the O line will be a lot better than last year and smash some good running holes for him. Should be some open ground to that second level since teams have to respect our passing game.

I personally am down on him but only in fantasy because I think Darwin and Hyde are going to contribute a lot and the incredible wide receiver group are going to need to eat.
But yeah. This offense regressing is so unbelievably hilarious. Watch Mahomes throw 5 tds against Jacksonville week 1 and then search "Mahomes" "regress" "wrong" in twitter that day. It will be delicious to drink it in. |

I'm not as high on him as others. But luckily for us we have the best offensive coach in the league so almost any running back will do. He can make them work. In his entire time at Miami he couldn't muster 4.0 yards per carry. in a four year sample size. That is FRIGHTENING. Let's be honest, it's easy to run in this offense. Defenses prepare to stop Mahomes. Running lanes are open.
We should almost NEVER run the ball. Period. I'm talking 90% of the time pass the ball. There is a great Athletic article about this. Even when they KNOW you are passing, it's STILL way way more effective than running the ball. STOP running the ball unless it's 4th and inches, or the defense is just giving you an easy 10 yard gain. |

Last year the WORST team in the NFL had a 3.8 yards per carry average.
Prior to coming to the Chiefs last year, he had a 3.5 yard per carry average. In four years. Let that sink in a moment. |

Funny thing is that all the Jags fans are laughing at us for picking up Carlos Hyde....would be funny if he ripped off a 200 yard day against them

Andy Reid has made so many running backs look better than they are. Look at Brian Westbrook. But really, running back doesn't matter much in an Andy Reid offense. So that is cool. We should throw everytime. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. |

So if running lanes are open- why would you not pound the ball and control the clock? ![]() People were not impressed with Priest Holmes before he came here either. Williams is going to be a big weapon for us. |

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. |

His running style reminds me of Marcus Allen - so smooth.
