Blocking for the OTHER Joe

While that is a true statement, it also seems like teams that are competing for the big one are also able to run the ball, as well as stop the run.

Case in point, Kansas City.  Their OL let them down, due to a pair of key OL injuries.  What did they do about it?  They proceeded to release two premium talent Tackles, and then went on to completely overhaul their OL with younger, better talent.  Everyone notices the flash of Pat Mahomes in the passing game, but fails to remember that Andy Reid also likes to pound the ball.
