Isiah Pacheco plays angry but Patrick Queen is angrier

Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco should know that Baltimore Ravens linebacker Patrick Queen plays angry on defense.

Queen recorded 133 total tackles and 11 stuffs this season on a defense that allowed just six rushing touchdowns all year. 

Pacheco did not reach 1,000 rush yards this season but did average 4.6 yards per carry. Regardless, Queen and the Ravens will be looking to pummel Pacheco in the AFC Championship.

Stopping Pacheco as a rusher is only half of the battle. Queen will likely match-up as a pass defender on Pacheco out of the back-field on passing downs. With a 40-yard dash time of 4.5 seconds, Queen is well-able to go stride for stride with Pacheco if needed.

Kansas City will probably try to pull blockers and use counter schemes to create rush lanes for Pacheco. Pacheco better run his angriest if he thinks Queen and the Ravens are going to lay down in the AFC Championship.
