"On the other side of the ball, the Chiefs are stopping the run. Their run defense is sixth in the NFL and is only allowing 80.5 yards per game on the ground. They are 27th in the league in passing yards and yet they lead their division. The Chiefs know Matt Cassel is no Peyton Manning, but they way things are looking, he doesn’t have to be. How does KC’s strategy stack up around the NFL? The top ten rushing teams in the NFL have a combined record of 31-17. The top ten passing teams in the NFL have a combined record of 21-23."
