So with Reid's tendency towards getting guys healthy and then giving them ANOTHER week, I'd say that means we don't see them this week or next.

I wouldn't be surprised to see NONE of them return until the Raiders game after Thanksgiving. With the shorter week coming off the Panthers game, that's a good time for reinforcements. And we shouldn't need them for the Carolina game.

Would love to see Pacheco back as Hunt actually showed some signs of being human yesterday.

This Buffalo game is so important it would be great to get JuJu back.

He's great at finding the soft spots in their zone defense.

Juju's hamstring wasn't IR

100 total yards says otherwise.

Just fight through this one.

You all can rest after a win against Buffalo.

Man, I know that's SOP for Reid, but this may be the closest you get to a playoff game in the regular season. Win and you've given yourself what is effectively a 4 game buffer over our stiffest competition remaining for the #1 seed. Lose and it's down to 1.

With all the guys who have gotten banged up, winning this is huge.

Hell, we could probably give Mahomes a few extra weeks to get that ankle right instead of throwing him out there against Myles Garrett and TJ Watt shortly.

With JuJu and DHop on the field together our passing game should pick up. We just need Morris to improve a little so Mahomes has the time.

The line was getting dominated yesterday and Hunt still had 100 yards. Pacheco isn't doing better in that game.

He looked downright beat up. Just watching him get up after he was tackled made me hurt

But Pacheco can keep hunt fresh. I kind of envision a Clevelandesque usage of hunt. Let Pacheco get them down there. Then let hunt do its thing. Hunt’s problably also the third down back.
