As the AFC’s No. 1 seed, the Kansas City Chiefs began their playoff run on Saturday in a fitting mid-January way.
With snow falling on their home stadium in the pre-game, members of the NFL’s gold-standard team largely seemed unfazed by the wintry mix as they prepared to earn a fifth consecutive berth in the AFC title game. (Heck, they had already one awesome halftime party planned, too.)
Judging by running back Isiah Pacheco’s specific approach to the light snow, the Jacksonville Jaguars should probably have been a little bit worried. When Pacheco took the field to warm up, he chose to show off his moves, dancing through the flurries quite smoothly and happily:

A bright rookie for the Chiefs’ electric offense, Pacheco’s lighthearted reaction to some flurries made it seem as if he would more than bank on pre-game expectations for him to stuff the stat sheet. Pacheco scored a pair of touchdowns to close the regular season and seems primed to continue finding the end zone for pro football’s red and gold machine.
Something tells me any sort of snow won’t stop him now.
