#Chiefs star RB Isiah Pacheco, who left the stadium in a walking boot and crutches, fractured his fibula based on initial tests, sources say.

More information coming to determine severity and associated damage, but Pacheco is set to miss real time. pic.twitter.com/9xA4hOsMyE

So...what's McKinnon doing these days? I bet he's getting bored with tending his lawn and yelling at neighbor kids.

We already have a McKinnon style runner on the roster.

Let the rookie FB take the snaps and bring in a RB that is a wrecking ball.

I’ll jump in and say I think Hunt probably has more to give at this point than McKinnon, but I’m not sure either are the answer.

Hunt would probably kill just for the opportunity and do whatever it takes to succeed, that’s for sure.

Let's see what Steele is made out of first.

Trust is earned. The only reason Steele got carries after the fumble was out of necessity with lack of bodies.

I was going to suggest trade for Lamar Jackson. He'd be a great RB in this system.

If that were true they woulda handed it to Perine.

He actually wouldn't. He's not smart enough for Andy's scheme.

BS... Andy always gets young RB's legit carries after they have their first fumble.

They'll be adding someone, whether it be a FA or someone like Keontay Ingram.

Of all these things though I just really hope LT can get figured out. Just give Mahomes some good protection and confidence and he'll paper over everything else.

It actually seems like we might miss Gay more than Sneed. I can't believe I just typed that.

3.0 ypc last year and was trending down the years before that

McKinnon looked absolutely done last season.

That isn't being a doomer either.

Doesn't mean we're toast, but anyone thinking there's not significant issues is also looking through rose colored glasses.

This team is not worse than they were at this point last season. That's just revisionist history nonsense.
