Kenneth Walker was a standout on the ground, racking up 128 rushing yards and adding a critical element to the Chiefs' offensive strategy. Jeff Caldwell contributed significantly as well, catching four passes for 72 yards to keep the chains moving. Defensively, the Chiefs were able to apply pressure when it mattered most, with R Mason Thomas recording a key sack that disrupted Miami's rhythm.
