It wasn't about the downvoting. It was about the pattern of constantly downvoting with nothing to ever actually say. And I clearly wasn't the only person that noticed this pattern.

It's a really accurate comment, his just lacks vision and instincts, you can see it in his Rutgers video, he just misses holes constantly, he lacks feel.
He may have value if you can scheme him into open space or do run plays that just hit that exact gap..but he just isn't natural to the position at all. [Reply]

If his "vision' was that bad so far, Andy and the coaching staff would not have been hyping him up.
He is a rookie- maybe give him some time to develop before you label him Ray Charles.
It's fair to say Pacheco doesn't have the best vision / instincts. He looks like the same RB he was at Rutgers. It's early, so maybe Reid, EB & Co can coach him up. He does seem to have pretty good hands, and the ability to break tackles after a reception, so he's likely going to have chances to contribute. [Reply]

You mean the video where he had arguably the worst OL in CFB, and one of, if not the worst yards before contact?
I'm sure that had nothing to do with it!
And it's not like our run blocking was good in those 2 preseason games either. It's been awful, like many teams across the NFL.
Look if you like him that's fine, he's a 7th round pick with elite speed so I understand the gamble. I personally think he lacks vision and instincts to be a good RB..
Every RB on the team has issues though..CEH is slow as balls, McKinnon is injury prone, Ronald Jones probably has the best instincts as a runner but he sucks catching the ball and in pass pro.

So it is what it is at this point.
I've been skeptical about the hype to begin with. That's not the point.
People are completely overanalyzing a ridiculously small sample size, where the run blocking was objectively bad. It's just laughable. [Reply]
Isaiah Pacheco is literally Robert Turbin and Christine Michael all over again.
Physically talented player who has absolutely no clue what he's doing but placed in an explosive offense so people buy in. Could be wrong, but I never bought into the hype on him. https://t.co/BDlOuHlaI2
