Then you'd have posters like IowaHawkeyeChief crying about touches and proclaiming he will be useless in January.
You act like these football players get paid millions of dollars to actually play football or something with these wild suggestions of feeding your best back the football instead of pulling him at the 1 to watch MEH fail spectacularly. [Reply]
Chiefs got a gift on the late hit on Patrick and then Pacheco couldn’t keep his cool and cost us. Chiefs would’ve had the ball at 35 with 50 secs [Reply]
This play by Pacheco on the right side of the screen is one of the most heads up and aware plays you’ll see. Pat is scrambling, Pacheco sees it, and knows his LB is trailing in man coverage. So he actually accelerates to keep running faster and further draws 45 up the field. pic.twitter.com/7trcBvteXu

“Why [do] I leave it all out there on the field?” Isiah started to tell the Big Ten Network when he was on the Rutgers football team. “You never know when it’s going to be your last opportunity – I never knew when it was gonna be my last time seeing my sister or my brother.
“My brother ended up getting stabbed and [it hurt] me because I didn’t have that same guidance when I would hear him scream my name at the football fields. One year after that, we got a knock on the door by a family member. She says, ‘It’s Celeste (sister), she’s gone.’ I’m just in shock because I didn’t know what to do after losing a brother and a sister now.”
After the devastations, Isiah made it his goal to work hard in order to make his siblings proud.
“I attended my sister’s funeral [and I] had a game that night,” Isiah told the Big Ten Network. [I still played because] I wanted to make her smile.”
Talked to my dad today and he said Pacheco has been calling my little sister (technically my half sister). She's an esthetician and got hooked up with the Chiefs after she met Tyreek when he came into her shop a couple years ago.
She hasn't gone out with Pop yet (supposedly), but here's to hoping she does and I get hooked up with some friends/family suite tickets when I'm in KC. :-) [Reply]
