  1. That sucks. I know he’s gotten a lot of hate here, but it’s been pretty clear watching the last few weeks that they’re even more hesitant to give touches to the position without him eating up like half of them at least. Even if you think he’s a replacement level player, it’s pretty clear they’ve been approaching the run game differently without a guy like him who they trust.

  2. Hunt is the better back this season anyway. Id rather he rest up and make sure hes 💯. Besides…. we arent going to run the ball more than 15/16 times anyway

  3. Run the ball under center with Kareem and play action off that. Throw in some of the old pistol formation stuff he ran way back. Severely limit the RPOs. In fact, don’t even try to run out of the shotgun.

  4. Fuckin awesome….we’re going to run the ball 7 times this game and average 8 yards a carry.

  5. I feel bad for the guy and hope he heals up, but does it really matter? We barely run the ball, even when Hunt or Pacheco are getting 4-5+ yards a carry. At this point, I hope Pat just starts running like he did early in the season.

  6. Welp. that means you know exactly if the Chiefs are running it or passing it based on who is in the backfield.

    Kareem better get that ice bath ready.

  7. They just have to run more I don’t care who is doing it! They are getting over 4 yards a carry. That’s ok. It’s ok to lose a yard sometimes. The D needs to know that that a run is possible

  8. I don’t think Pacheco is ever going to be the same after the Bengals injury last year. And especially after this knee injury. And that sucks, because he was fun to watch.

  9. Some good news, but I fear it won’t be enough without the D line getting pressure and Mahomes snapping out of his funk.

  10. Unless Steele has better ball control don’t upgrade him from the practice squad. Give Hunt, Mitchell and Smith snaps 🫰

  11. Activate Steele and let him eat! And by “let him eat” I mean put him in for 3 plays and throw a bunch of dropped passes to Worthy instead of running the ball. As is tradition.

    I just want some redemption for riding the Carson Steele hype train two years ago 👀

  12. Its so annoying to see hunt thrown in bad situations when he has a high value role as an elite short yardage rb

  13. Not gonna lie, going from “not trading a third for Breece Hall” to “missing 3 weeks of Pacheco” feels real bad. Hopefully the team can step up, they need this win big time
