Agreed.To some...I could see that. But still, quite a leap to from disappointing to potentially cutable.

If he can DX lewis's injury by looking at a video, what would he have said about Tre Jacksons knee after watching it get bent? There have been other players in the past that looked like they would be out for the year looking at the video of their knees bending sideways, but they have gotten up and played. So i call BS.
No credible doctor would would diagnose the extent of the injury by watching a video and not examining the injury personally. Before this goes any farther i don't know if chow said that "its an acl" or that he "thinks it Could be an acl"I am not defending Chao but the main difference here is that Dion injured himself without any contact. Look again at the replay and you will see that he grabs his knee immediately while still in running motion. I hope for the best but given his immediate reaction I don't expect to see him again this season (and maybe at all).
With all of the injuries we've had I've been thinking about where the roster spots can come from.
Without mentioning any safeties, since that is an obvious area that is dependent on how BB values their ST value, we've got:
Sealver Silinga
Aaron Dobson
Keshon Martin - IR?
James White-wouldn't be a shocker.
Scott Chandler -Poor production, but unlikely due to depth.
Any others?

As fast as this announcement was made by the Colts, I find it bizarre that the Patriots have released no updates on Lewis' injury (especially if it's season-ending as we all suspect)
On the positive side, I learned why it's called a Lisfranc from that article! Cool historical information! Thanks, Chao!I really hate hearing that. Tough break for Steelers and Ben.
Scott Chandler has not been disappointing at all. He's a TE2 behind the greatest TE of all time, so you shouldn't expect his stats to be off the charts. His blocking, however, has been very good. A lot better than most of us expected.

chandler's blocking hasn't been that good...there's a reason michael williams plays more snaps.
bill is still searching for the perfect #2 to gronk. heck, tim wright was more productive than chandler.
chandler put up decent numbers with garbage qb's like fitzpatrick. strange that it doesnt translate with the GOAT
I think so. As tight as Pats are with injuries, they usually announce an IR pretty quickly to help manage the roster and fill the spot ASAP. Fingers crossed for severe sprain that has Dion back for playoff push.No news is good news imo
I think that many severely overrated what Chandler is. Probably because he got so much of his yearly stats against the Pats. As a starter he's a 500 yards 3-4 TDs kind of guy. He's a pretty average TE. Now obviously he's behind arguably the mest dominant tight end ever, and that will limit his numbers a lot. But I still like what he gives us as a backup TE. There's not that many good TEs in the league, so having an average one for a backup is nice.Chandler's been disappointing.
