. . PASS RUSH. F.

Where was the pass rush in this game? With the likes of Justin Houston and Dee Ford, the Chiefs should have been attacking the hell out of that Titans offensive line, but nope. Nada. Nothing.

Marcus Mariota was sacked once, but I’m still giving the pass rush an F because they were not effective at all. It was embarrassing.

D. . . . RUN GAME

The only reason I’m not giving the run game a failing grade is because the two touchdowns that the Chiefs scored were rushing touchdowns.

The first came on a run by Tyreek Hill that went for 68 yards and the second was a ten-yard run by Alex Smith on a third down in the red zone. Those would be the only touchdowns the Chiefs would score all day.

As for the rest of the rushing attack, Spencer Ware managed 70 yards off of 18 carries and continued to be ineffective. Charcandrick West had five yards on four carries.

While the run game went over 150 yards rushing, that only happened because of the run by Hill. Otherwise it’d be another terrible outing for the running backs and it’s getting old.

I miss Jamaal Charles.
