Kind of a wash with Pacheco for me. Damien ripped off more big ones but got stuffed a lot at the LOS. Pops is almost always good for some forward progress but doesn't go for more than 10 nearly as often. Playoff Damien was so good people forget that he was pretty bad in the regular season. IDR if it was 19 or 20 that he was dealing with an injury and was just flat out meh as all hell. [Reply]

Yep, Pacheco is definitely a superior pure rusher and Williams during the regular season was just pretty good.. but fuck me, in the playoffs that dude turned into a fire breathing dragon. 10 TDs in only five playoff games with us. That’s absurd. [Reply]
