Because Mckenzie has been fantastic.
I feel like once they are playing from behind, they have a tendency to feel like they have to throw the ball. With the lead, they are able to lean on Mckenzie more. Defense has to step up and get a stop.

Surprised they went for it there. Maybe they didn't feel comfortable kicking it from that angle.
Either way, the playcall actually seemed to work. Would have liked to have seen Kasim hand that one off instead of keeping it and trying to follow the RB.
