The Kansas City Chiefs were down by nine points against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday Night Football in Week 13 when Isiah Pacheco took matters into his own hands.
After scoring a touchdown earlier in the contest, Pacheco took a carry late in the third quarter and managed to push a pile nearly 10 yards in pursuit of his second score of the game.
A video of the impressive play was posted to Twitter by the NFL’s official Twitter account which lauded the effort of the second-year running back and his offensive line:

Pacheco has made a huge impact on this game, and this run was emblematic of the gritty effort he brings to the field in every game he plays.
Without his hard-nosed running to lead the way about Green Bay, Kansas City wouldn’t have stood a chance against the Packers’ up-and-coming defense, which has impressed through nearly three-quarters of the primetime tilt.
