During his postgame press conference, head coach Andy Reid explained his decision to limit running plays.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe weren\u2019t doing too good with it. I felt \u2013 the way they were playing, they were bringing an extra guy. I felt like we were better off with a short passing game, which was working; we were going up and down the field,\u201d said Reid. \u201cWe just weren\u2019t doing very good in the red zone \u2013 we were struggling with the runs early, so that was a decision I made.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Isiah Pacheco returned to the field after being placed on injured reserve earlier in the season with a leg injury. He had his first opportunity to team with Kareem Hunt in the backfield, as the two combined for only 14 carries on the day.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYeah, that was great. I thought that was a positive,\u201d said Reid. \u201cIt was good to get (Isiah) Pacheco some reps in there. I thought he did a nice job when we had an opportunity to run.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Pacheco broke free in the third quarter for a 34-yard rush to move the Chiefs quickly downfield to the Las Vegas 14-yard line, marking the club\u2019s longest rush of the 2024 season.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kansas City #Chiefs head coach Andy Reid comments on straying from the run game vs. the Las Vegas #Raiders: \u2018We were struggling\u2019 | @EdEastonJr<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":13522,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[108,61,161,916,190,500,917,901],"class_list":["post-13518","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nfl","tag-andy-reid","tag-chiefs","tag-isiah-pacheco","tag-kareem-hunt","tag-news","tag-raiders","tag-running-back","tag-week-13"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
