Baltimore, Philly and Buffalo all had over 100 yards rushing, with their QB's as the leading rushers.
The Chargers and Washington were held to under 100 yards rushing as their QB's were not rushing threats and were therefore not their team's leading rusher.
I guess the point is that the Chiefs run defense is "better" (relatively?) against more traditional rushing offenses, with a rushing attack led by a RB rather than a mobile QB.

That's a very interesting point.
