I still believe Kareem was the best rb we have had in Reid’s system to date, lets hope we strike lightning in a bottle with him for maybe 6 games or so 6 games? Dream on.

The guy won't play until 2025. He has a bad, bad injury and might not ever be the player he was. Don't believe the pablum being fed to the fanbase. The bug has hit us this year, and a three-peat is out of he question, at least for me. So far, a three-peat has never been done. This is why.

gochiefsgo 380 Posted Wednesday at 09:17 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 09:17 PM I’m anticipating something like this. Steele. Perine. Hunt. No one running back replaces Pacheco. Welcome to the three headed hydra. Each has different strengths. It’s running back by committee with each being ready for specific plays that are designed for them specifically by field position and down and distance. I like this signing. The drafted Hunt for a reason. If he’s turned a maturity corner? Then Welcome back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wouldn't come close to providing what Pacheco does. I'm thinking that CEH will be better than Hunt could be at his age when he gets back from his injury. As Chiefs fans, we all have memories of the Hunt times, but he is not in the same conversation now. We should curb our enthusiasm. His best attribute is his receiving and he still has a connection with Mahomes. I'm guessing Reid will work him in as an outlet receiver and blocker on 3rd downs and nothing else. He's not #1. I doubt anyone expects him to be. He's just filling in. BPA. This is not to say Steele won't get his carries. But I really doubt Hunt will play STs. Whereas not only does Steele play STs, he EXCELS at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not. He's the same age as Mahomes. He didn't do much in Cleveland because, well... CLEVELAND. He absolutely can contribute to our offense. He's good in pass pro, understands the playbook, can catch the ball out of the backfield, and can tote the rock. Is he Christian McCaffery? No. Can he help us in a time of need? Yes. oldtimer and artsy 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as Mahomes is QB and Reid is the coach we have as good as chance as anyone. by the playoffs im confident our rb situation will be fine, might be a mid season trade or something. im much more worried about how we handle the left tackle situation than i am the rb position Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get your point, but 29 year old at rb is equivalent to 50 year old at qb again im just looking for kareem to get a few touches a game, break glass in case of emergency situation, which im sure he can do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know something they are not telling us? Why do you think he will not be back this year? A Fracture of the fibula is not that a serious of an injury. I saw several of them, that same injury, during my career and mostly they were back by 8 -10 weeks. The main purpose of the fibula bone is to provide stability to the ankle joint. There seems to me there is no reason he should not be back in the 6 - 8 or 10 week range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the playoffs, we will be facing only the top teams. Those are always teams with great pass rushers. We have Taylor to protect on the right. We have the rookie, KS on the left. So, we are in poor shape there. I agree. RB is bad, too. Pacheco will not be back this season. It could be a long time, and he may never be the same. The fracture apparently extends into the joint where the tibia and fibula and bones of the ankle meet. When a fracture extends into a joint, pins have to be placed. After healing and the pins are removed, some degree of permanent decreased mobility in the joint is almost assured to some degree. That requires a long rehab, and the amount of decreased range of motion that would be left is anyone's guess. The earlier estimate of 4-6 weeks was made based on a common simple fracture of the fibula, prior to the additional findings. Hunt is 29 and was slow already the last year or two. I really don't know what we have in Perine. I know this combo will give us decent pass blocking and pass catching, but the running seems very questionable to me. I think we are too enthusiastic about Steele at this point. He has a LOT to learn, and we know nothing about his vision or instincts. I'm excited about him, though. He is big and tough.

One thing we do know is that we'll never get the straight story form the Chiefs' staff. That's true. And I don't want to misrepresent what I know. I am not an orthopedic surgeon and have no access to more actual medical information from the same sources as anyone else here does, only what I read. So, IF the information is correct about the broken fibula extending into the articulating surfaces with the tibia at the ankle, and if the MRI shows damage to any of the ligaments in that area of the ankle, then what I wrote is most likely correct. A fracture, like a spiral fracture, that extends downward from the fibula into the articulating surface (joint) with the tibia, then it is a big damn deal that, even if it heals well, there likely will be SOME permanent reduction of the ability of that joint to move without pain. But not even the Chiefs front office would have a full knowledge until the MRI's which show soft tissue, have been evaluated by an orthopedic surgeon who subspecializes in injuries to that area. I'm just speaking about fractures extending into joints in general. Even the source of what I read is not official yet. So, the Chiefs don't know the whole picture probably. For me, it's just an educated guess. Also, yes, I tend to be a pessimist when it comes to injuries in a contact sport like NFL football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
