When we get Pacheco back (if he's 100%), I'm almost of the mindset of giving Hunt a week off to rest up for the home stretch. Pacheco is expected back at the "end of November." Is that 11/24 or 11/29?
Let's say we beat the Broncos (11/10) and the Bills (11/17). We'll have a 3 game lead with tie-breakers for the AFC 1 seed.
The next games are the Panthers (11/24) and then a super short week against the Raiders (11/29).
If Pacheco is back for 11/24 in a throwaway NFC game against a terrible team, I'd like to load-manage Hunt for that game and give him the extra time on the short week.
