Without a stud running back, teams can just rush the **** out of Mahomes and force him into poor throws. They don't need to load up the box because they're unafraid of the running back.
Mahomes needs a Top 10 running back in order to make this offense work at its highest levels, which adds a layer of protection due to the fact that the linebackers and safeties NEED to account for the running back at all times.

No it's not false. Chiefs won a crap ton of games without a running game. Nothing I said was controversial. You seem to want to argue for the sake of it. Whatever man.
