The 4th down play the Chiefs used to win the game against the Browns was the same play the Bears tried on 4th and 1 against the Green Bay Packers in Week 17
Slightly different formation, Bears in a 2x2 instead of a 3x1
Biggest difference is Tyreek Hill running a quick out versus Allen Robinson running a quick out. Packers slot defender plays it much better than the Browns did too
