3 headed rushing backfield
I am intrigued by our new 3 headed power rushing backfield with Pacheco, Perine and Steele. However, I worry that Andy just will not stick to a power rushing gameplan.
In 2023 CHIEFS 1784 TOTAL RUSHING YARDS OPPONENTS 1925 TOTAL RUSHING YARDS CHIEFS RUSHING ATTEMPTS 417 - 4.3 PER ATTEMPT OPPONENTS RUSHING ATTEMPTS 432 - 4.5 What do you think our rushing yards, attempts and per attempt will be this year? In 2024 CHIEFS ______ TOTAL RUSHING YARDS OPPONENTS _______ TOTAL RUSHING YARDS CHIEFS RUSHING ATTEMPTS ____ - _____ PER ATTEMPT OPPONENTS RUSHING ATTEMPTS ______ - _______ |

I'm assuming what is meant by power rushing gameplan, that when it is 2nd/3rd and 1, everyone would be confident that the run game could just drive straight forward and pick up the first down without the need for a bunch of strange formations, movements, or gimmicks. I'm all for it.

Oh, well yeah...I cringe in those short yardage situations when I start seeing a ton of shifts and movement, then it gets blown up in the backfield (or a false start). I know it's blasphemy after what happened that game against Green Bay, but I'd like to see the sneak put back in the playbook *runs and takes cover* |

I don’t see Steele getting a lot of work. Realistically this is probably a 2 headed attack.

I doubt we average 20 rushes per game this year.

Andy has not, will not, and should not go with a power running game plan. He's got Patrick Mahomes. Also I want no part of a "3 headed rushing backfield". I want Pacheco to be the RB on most drives, Steele should get a couple of drives to give him a breather, and Perine can have a few 3rd down plays. Snap distribution should be like this
Pacheco gets 65%-75% Steele gets 20%-25% Perine gets 5%-10% Pacheco needs the bulk, because he eventually breaks a long one and I think he does better when he gets a feel for things. |
