Walker's run threat opens play-action passing lanes for Chiefs offense.

Kenneth Walker's presence as the Chiefs' running back has forced defenses to respect the run threat much more than in previous years, which has opened up Kansas City's play-action passing concepts. The Chiefs ran a quick-boot formation to the flat for Walker on critical plays, including a third-down conversion in overtime, attacking linebackers who can't match Walker in space. This improved run game is a key component of the Chiefs' offensive evolution.
