Watching the All 22 tape Rice was open a lot .... just Denver got pressure most of the plays (which also caused so many quick check downs to Walker) & 2 or 3 Mahomes was elsewhere in his progression.
Were missing their LT/Denvers pass rush was really good/Mahomes 1st game back from ACL & LCL tear so had some rust & jumpiness .... like I said nothing but reasons to run the ball.
Also had Walker bust a 60+ yarder & Kelce a 59 yarder.... both of those could have been drives with more targets

All the fantasy “experts” panicking about Rashee will have him as a buy candidate after he drops 20+ this week.

The Chiefs OC came out & said this week they are gonna go with whats working game to game to get the W & that Andy Reid is still there so they will pass the ball still. They had nothing but reasons to run the ball week 1. That will change game to game.
But if they do use Walker even close to that heavy he WILL get hurt. His entire career points to it. Walker stayed healthy for the first time in his career last year..... he also averaged his lowest carries per game of his career. Seattle figured out u cant give him bellcow type usage. And games played doesnt tell the story bc he went out early in games MANY times & also was a shell of himself many times bc he played through injury. Ive owned him in fantasy on some of my teams for years and it was very frustrating lol. Sucks because he is such a beast with the ball in his hands.
And even with that injury history he STILL has never avgd more than 15 rushes a game or 4.5 targets a game (& the year he avgd 4.5 targets was the season he missed 5 games completely) ..... he had 23 rushes & 6 targets Monday night.
Rice wont be averaging 9 targets like before (unless Walker goes down of course) .... but i think he can still average around 6 or 7 most games plus is a redzone cheat code

My theory as a longtime Rice owner is that KC running backs have always been trash, and they’ve been using Rice as a makeshift RB with screens and short passes. Now that they have an RB, Rice will have to work to carve out a changed role.
