Kansas City’s Third Down Woes
Opponent Third down att. Third down conv. Final score
Baltimore 2 10 L, 38-24
Kansas City 5 15 L, 13-10
Philadelphia 0 11 L, 34-14
NYG 2 15 L, 27-16
Want a reason why Kansas City’s offense has been so putrid this season?
The Chiefs, ranked No. 31 in the NFL in offense (only Oakland trails), have been horrendous on third down. Kansas City has converted just nine of 51 third-down plays. That’s a scary 18 percent, is the worst in the NFL.
How can this team even think of winning a game if it continues this horrible average on third down? If you can’t sustain a drive, you are not going to score, thus, you are not going to win.
