Unfortunately, the NFL rules don't allow the Youtube video to be linked here. But you should look at it there. The blockers opened a lane -- but credit goes to Pacheco, who ran over three players to get the first down.
Did you see Pacheco's run to clinch the KC-Denver game?

The young man is a wrecking ball on a mission to knock down everyone and everything in his path.

Mahomes seems like a great teammate as well. Pacheco couldn't have landed in a better spot.
I watched it live from the 50yd line 20 rows up. 😊 Great run
“He runs like he’s hurting the ground.”
Forget who said it but great line.

I have noticed they usually bring in McKinnon in passing situations and very rarely throw to Pacheco.
I would guess a wheel route to Pacheco at a key point in a playoff game has a real good chance of being successful.

We will watch KC in the playoffs and when it happens we’ll all say, “@krup you magnificent bastard.👍”
I think they value McKinnon's pass protection more at this point in Pacheco's rookie season.
He seems so much better in the pro game. Was he underutilzed or poorly coached at RU? Maybe he had such a poor O Line that he couldn’t do much?
Saw this from a Chiefs fan about Pop:
Plus he’s like a rabid weasel and a honey badger had a kid.
Kansas City has a lot more offensive weapons and so teams can't key on him the way they did here. Maybe he was poorly coached, but it seems to me the ability to break tackles like that is born, not made.
KC has more offensive weapons for sure, but his YAC statistic also does not begin 3 yards behind the line of scrimmage.
Yes, it helps to have a quality offensive line, something that has been a problem here for a *long* time.
The offense was poorly coached and conceived when he was here. A familiar refrain.
The talent differential in the NFL is tiny. A good team to a bad team could be the result of a couple star players in key positions and chemistry and coaching Xs and Os. But the talent on OL vs DL, for example, shouldn't be that great compared to what Rutgers faces in many games. Hopefully.. eventually.. we will reach middle-of-the-pack Big Ten talent and guys like Pacheco will shine more brightly while here.
The key question here (and I don't know the answer is this): is our offense so limited because the coaches aren't making the right design decisions, or is our offense so limited because we don't have the personnel to do anything but we're doing? Either way, the coaches are at fault -- either for not using the weapons we have, or for not getting and developing better weapons. But they're different shortcomings and they have different solutions. My guess is that the problem is some of each.

“Some day our consistency will be as good as their consistency.”
He wasnt the only former RU RB who scored yesterday

HIGHLIGHT: Raheem Blackshear caps run-heavy drive with TD
Raheem Blackshear punched it in from eight yards out to cap a 10-play drive.
Hahaha. The Broncos fans are jumping ship for the season. Tickets are easy and cheap. Everyone around me except 4 fans were either neutral(like me) or Chiefs fans. Ha
And how about lineman #62! Was a great play. Looks like Pacheco will literally run through brick walls for his team, they have to be conservative playing him to keep him healthy.
I thought he played well, with the offensive line RU had. Anyway, Rutgers now has a 'Ron Dane' for a running back in Sam Brown, it will be fun watching him progress.
Thought it was "he runs like he is angry at the ground". But yeah either way great line.
He’s a better runner running downhill/ straight ahead instead of running side to side like he did at Rutgers.
He'll be a Ron Dayne if they put together an OL as good as the ones he had at Wisconsin.
