A. . RB. Kansas City Chiefs. KAREEM HUNT

Kareem Hunt is the difference maker for the Kansas City offense. When he’s going, the Chiefs offense is nearly unstoppable. He owned the Raiders on Sunday and had his first 100+ performance since… Well, week seven against the Raiders.

Hunt hadn’t had much success in the recent games, but he got back to being effective in this one. The offensive line helped Hunt in the run game and he ended the afternoon with 25 carries for 116 yards rushing, three catches for 22 yards, and a rushing touchdown.

That touchdown was Hunt’s first since the week three match-up against the Chargers. It had been a long drought for the rookie running back and it was definitely a good sight to see him get his mojo back. Hopefully this is a sign that he and the offensive line are gelling again and he’ll go back to being that stellar running back we saw at the beginning of the year.

When Hunt is making plays, the Chiefs are a better football team. That’s a fact and we need to see more of it moving forward.
