Question of the Week: Can the Chiefs find explosive plays with offensive injuries?

When the Kansas City Chiefs assembled this team this offseason, the thought was that the offense would be more explosive.

By adding players like Hollywood Brown and Xavier Worthy alongside the developments of Isiah Pacheco and Rashee Rice, there was optimism that the added speed of Brown and Worthy would open more space downfield for vertical shots. It would also stretch the field to allow Rice and Pacheco to win with their physical running style.

The results have not been there for four weeks. I looked at the play-by-play data since 2023 to find how many explosive plays—a 15-plus yard run or 20-plus yard pass—the Chiefs have generated.
