On paper, it feels silly to say that the third game of a seventh-round rookie's career should be a coming-out party. But that's just how desperately the Kansas City Chiefs should be to make something happen in the backfield.
The Chiefs sit at 0-2 headed into a Sunday night showdown in primetime against the New York Giants. The offense was the culprit in the team's Week 2 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, and the team has asked way too much of Patrick Mahomes this season to keep things sustainable. That was already true of the Chiefs' offense over the last two years, but 2025 has taken that dependence to another level.
