Tonight we get to see the hardest runner in the NFL Rutgers Isiah Pacheco perform, the guy is a legit beast. A great burst with tenacity, what a great combo for a running back.
When the old AFL first came into existance back in 1960 the first "star" of the new league was a Dallas Texan (Chiefs to be) Abner Haynes out of North Texas State where he had become the first black to play college football in Texas. Haynes was quick, shifty with speed and did it all.
The second best RB was a Charger Paul Lowe a former Cali State hurdles champ and a former Oregon State Beaver. First time he touched the ball a 105 KO return.
Both teams having a long long line of runningbacks way too many to mention, other than fullback Keith Lincoln another Charger out of Washington State. Keep in mind he was the fullback to Lowe's running back. Lincoln scored.......passing, rushing, receiving, punt return, KO return, field goal and extra point. That's a first for a fullback.

As far as tonights game goes, I do think the Chiefs were totally embarrashed in that SB beat down, here is their chance to make things right, BUT.............the game is in Brazil, so both teams are road teams, so how will the trip effect these teams, we don't know.
Will pass on a pick because of that....???
