F-. . . Kansas City Chiefs. RUN DEFENSE/TACKLING

The Kansas City Chiefs did not have a good day stopping the run. They allowed Chris Ivory to go off at Arrowhead Stadium, erupting for 107 yards off of 18 carries.

Ivory should have had a touchdown, but he fumbled the football before it broke the plain and it bounced into the end zone for a Chiefs touchback. Yet another lucky break for Kansas City.

KC’s run defense has been atrocious all season long and it really showed today.

Blake Bortles ran for 54 yards off of six carries as well. He had a big run for 26 yards in the fourth quarter in what we like to call “crunch time”.

KC’s run defense has been atrocious all season long and it really showed on Sunday. Overall, Jacksonville ran 205 yards on 32 carries. Had they not been down two possessions in the fourth quarter, they’d probably have continued to run the ball and eat the clock.

As for the Chiefs tackling… Where was it? Nobody could make a decent tackle and it was embarrassing.

Marcus Peters missed a crucial tackle on Marqise Lee and almost allowed him to make it inside the five on that play.

Learn to freaking tackle, guys.
