A good mix of run and pass, but, in particular, the play calling in the passing game is going to be what makes or breaks their chances of success. 

Lawrence basically has to play perfect in this game and our defense and/or special teams is going to have to make a play. Don't care if it's a forced fumble, an interception or a sack or two that results in 4th and long. SOMEBODY has to make a splash play or two. 

Mahomes can put points on the board in a flash and in a pinch. Kelce drives the whole thing over the middle as you pointed out but it's the deep passing game when he starts to scramble around that terrifies me. 

This is the game where, if I am Pederson and Caldwell? I pull Allen & Walker aside and tell them both privately. You both need to step your [BLEEP] game up this Sunday if we want to win this. You cannot allow Mahomes to sit back there uncontested in the pocket. You just can't. Almost getting there isn't getting there. It doesn't cut it. You have to put his ketchup eating on steak [BLEEP] into the ground.

Chiefs defense is much better against the run than the pass.  If we can block Jones I think Trevor can have a break out game
