Fantasy football owners thanked Chiefs’ Isiah Pacheco for winning them a title
- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
A late-season injury has derailed championship hopes for many a fantasy football player through the years.
In the days leading up to the Chiefs’ game Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium, it was unclear if running back Isiah Pacheco would clear the concussion protocol.
Pacheco not only got the all-clear to play, he had a huge game in the Chiefs’ 25-17 win. He rushed for 130 yards and caught seven passes for 35 yards and a touchdown.
That included a strong start to the game by Pacheco.
Isiah Pacheco is FEASTING on the first drive ️
4 touches, 54 total yards and a TD

It was that big effort that helped push a number of fantasy football owners to a championship, and they took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to thank Pacheco for helping them win a title.
Here is a look at what some of them were saying about Pacheco.

Fantasy football is so fun because of the losses, not the wins. It makes us tilt. But it’s wonderful.
This year’s big loss in the @EZT_News championship, I was down 2 points w/ Mahomes, Kelce, and Jefferson against just the Freshman’s Pacheco. Lost. Love this game. Congrats, JL— Steve Miller Band (@MillerBadger) January 1, 2024

Played my sister in our family fantasy football league championship game. Was down ~ 25 points, when she had just Travis Kelce and I had just Isaiah Pacheco left. I had abandoned all hope.
Then Kelce choked and Pacheco pulled it off.
What a way to end 2023. pic.twitter.com/ElT1nMCv8F— Grant Young (@GrvntYoung) January 1, 2024
