Offensive coordinator Greg Roman emphasized the need for an improved rushing attack to win against the Chiefs. Despite efforts, the Chargers rushed for only 94 yards, continuing a troubling trend of underwhelming ground performance with fewer than 100 yards in their last three games.
Gus Edwards experienced a challenging start, facing a two-yard loss, while Kimani Vidal's seven-yard gain was negated by penalty. These setbacks forced the Chargers away from the rushing game early on, contributing to a scoreless first half.
In the second half, the running backs found success, with Edwards gaining three yards to start the third quarter, followed by Vidal's eight-yard runs, leading to the Chargers' first touchdown drive. This offensive improvement highlighted the importance of establishing a rhythm.
Bozeman noted the team's growth in the third quarter, stating, 'We started kind of getting to who we are... We just got to start faster in the first half and give G-Ro the confidence for us to be able to run the ball.'
