EDIT: And not only that, you point out one team of the three prolific rushing teams and point out the losing record.
Tell me Kansas City's record has been dismal, therefore we should adopt their rushing philosophy.

No. It's not a terrible argument, it's an oversimplified (and entirely intentional) absurdity that may be supported by a result -- kind of like suggesting that recruiting 290 lb guys instead of 315 lb guys will fix our running game.
Buy a sarcasm detector. Don't you have some whiney letters to write to ESPN about where GameDay is scheduled this weekend?
