With the record the Chiefs have it would be nuts to bring him back if there is ANY question if he is ready.

Maybe they will not be rushing his return to the field, but making sure he'll be in playing shape for the playoffs by gradually working him into the backfield rotation giving him more paying time as the playoffs get closer

Surprised at this. But glad he is able to return.

But I picked up Hunt on a flyer and he turned my ffl season around. Maybe if IP comes back week 17 that would be great…

Unlike a lot of playoff RBs, Pacheco shows-up in tough games.
His stats in 7 playoff games are 510 yds at 4.3 a carry and 4 TDs.
Super Bowls = 135 yds for 4.1 and 1 TD.
Even Rice was stuffed in his only SB

Everything I've read and listened to about him has said exactly this.
