Great find by gm because this guy played behind a terrible OL at rutgers. He ain’t lyin!
Pacheco color commentator comment
- Thread starter bethlehemfan
- Start date
GM saw he was "stopped over and over again behind the line".
Pretty brutal to hear if you're a recruit
Funny thing was Duron Harmon made a goal line stop the play before

Pacheco made that drive and finished it with the TD!!!
8 carries 64 yards 8.0 ypc and 1 TD.

Agee but that was ash. Let’s hope for the best. I trust Greg personally
Weird thing to focus on something that happened 2-5 years ago under a different coach.
830 yds rushing on 170 car (leading team in both categories as the TV graphic stated) for 4.9ypc average is a darn fine rookie season. Great job IP!
Btw. If you are watching this game then you’re heard duron Harmon compliments all game long. #greg
Driven out of bounds on that long run by Duron as well, despite strong stiff arm by IP.
It’s just a great kid (man at this point) too. Loyal to ru. Hands the ball to the refs. Just very impressive
Truth is RU running sucked under Ash and GS.
Pacheco's worst avg per carry was 3.9 in 2021
You have to really split hairs between coaches

Well maybe the scouts should look at YAC in addition to YPC. He probably would have been close to 3000.
All his hard work paid off big. He landed in the perfect place. I'm pretty sure Schiano alerted NFL friends about Pacheco, Matt Millen picked up on it and gave him high praise when Pacheco was playing at RU.
He did play half his collegiate career under schiano .
Ash deserves credit for recruiting him to rutgers
IP overcame a lot of life’s challenges and became such a great person. Glad he is doing well and able to help his family. Well deserved success.
But experts here said is running form is unnatural. I still haven’t see any of them own it yet.
He was forced to run sideways running for his life. 😜
He was talking about a GM trying to project what kind of pro IP could be. Said he only avg'd 3 YPC at Rutgers but was being hit behind the line. The point seemed to be that KC saw something in IP that the rest of the league didn't even after he blew everyone away with his 40 time.
Yup...MM really was all over a cocknosed Pacheco every time he ran the ball.
Are there still league bonus payments to rookies who vastly exceed expected contributions?.
O line was a mess for sure. But it’s clear this kid was under/misutilized. We did a terrible job of getting him involved.
his catching yards would be awesome too if Mahomes ever thru him the ball. He was wide open first first downs + all game but instead they forced it to Kelsey on several plays.
Coaches did try
They used to run him down the line looking for a crease since usual plays were futile
It was kind of a variation on an option play
No dive or pitch but the stretch was there
Truth be told, even Schiano expected Pacheco to be a special teamer in pros and probably a FA sign.
Pacheco's superb combine got him drafted and still late

I remember that comment. I think it was because he used to have a lot of head motion as he ran. Pacheco
Millen's comments too that I recall were always special teams related, not starring at rb.
I tell you how. RU football gets no respect. Pacheco should have been a 2nd or 3rd Round Pick. This perception will change. Go RU!
If the offense continues to go the way it's going, that will change.
Certainly hasn't been for lack of reps.
If you bothered to watch the chiefs, his form has changed since he's become the primary back for Kansas City. He doesn't do the feet shuffle that hurt him at RU. He hits the gap and has improved his vision to find the hole instead of running into the OL, as he did here
