ESPN: Andy Reid has had QB Alex Smith drop back to pass 70.9% of the time this season, tied with the JAX for most in the NFL
And that is a huge problem. Run the ball Andy and then utilize play action. That's literally what this team did last year when it played well... |

PIT TD 8-0 Possession #2-ware fumble PIT 15-0 Possession #3-We run the ball for 8 yards on 2 carries. 3rd and 2 with your running game going? Let's throw a screen pass. It was always pass first. |

Maybe they've figured out that they're running into eight/nine men in the box and are trying to loosen up defenses to allow the screen game to operate.

Thought the whole point of the WCO, especially Reid's, was using the short passing game as an extension of the running game but also an opportunity to use mismatches to get TDs or at least big chunks of yards with the deeper passing game existing to keep defenses honest or to make up scoring deficits.
The weakness in this is in shutting down both the run and short passing game you must rely on deep passes to keep the chains moving... |

I think the lack of actual running plays has been a big part of the problem with the offense, which is strange considering we've actually done pretty well on yards per carry. The Chiefs rank 8th in yds/carry & 23rd in yds/game, 29th in runs attempted. |

3x2- bubble should net positive yardage. Defense slides a defender out, or goes man for a 3x3 look, check to run because there are less in the box. Spread offense is pretty simple, but they need to execute. |
