Joe Burrow had 25 yards rushing against the Chiefs.
Pat Mahommes had 19 yards rushing against the Bengals.
I said before the game that Burrow will be "pulling out all stops" and if the Chiefs only rush four and there are a lot of defenders with their backs turned, Burrow will take off and run to move the chains.
What I didn't expect was Mahommes, coming off a 70 yard rushing effort against the Bills (on 7 carries...10 ypc), to be held to just 19 yards on 3 carries.
Incredible effort by Burrow and by the defense.
To be fair, Mahommes had opportunities to run for positive yardage but decided to do his best Johnny Manziel impersonation and run around in the backfield hoping to make a big play instead of taking what was there.
