Because Jeremy Hill, that's why. Anytime there is a handoff there is a chance of a fumble. And a toss sweep to Mixon that does not connect likely goes the other way for 6. Besides, Mixon wasn't getting across that line either, as we all saw.
I rewatched the game last night. I'm surprised the score was as close as it was. KC can not cover our WR's without holding them, they did it all game long. If we play them in the playoffs and get a crew that "let's them play" we might struggle. If we get a crew that "calls it close" they can not hang with our guys.
