The Chiefs are the fourth-most explosive offense in the NFL

According to Football Data Scientist Sam Hoppen on Twitter , the Chiefs have been generating explosive plays at the fourth-highest rate in the NFL.

An explosive run is an attempt that gains 10 or more yards, while an explosive pass is a 20-yard gain through the air. The Chiefs rank fifth in explosive run and pass rates, combining to sit behind only the Buffalo Bills , Baltimore Ravens and San Francisco 49ers in terms of the league's best at executing big plays this season.

The Chiefs have hit on the explosive plays in many different ways, whether it was a fourth-and-one handoff to running back Kenneth Walker that scored from 60 yards out in Week 1 against the Denver Broncos or a play-action pass to tight end Travis Kelce that gained 48 in Week 3.
