I think Anthony will be good, don't know if he's chaisson good but he's not chopped liver. Seen a video of him abusing Campbell and Savage.

Not only is KLC a huge talent (best combo of smart and athleticism according to Dave Aranda), but it cuts into the depth. He is our best "disruptor" as they say, so that hurts more than anything.


It's football and every team will deal with this every week/season. Some will be key players, some won't. Hopefully you've recruited well enough to not lose too much production. I feel horrible for ALL Athletes that have to go through these injuries...It's a painful process to go through and takes extreme dedication to get back to where you were before the injury.

Chassion is an awesome player. With that said he won’t be the difference between a loss and win.

Sorry Tex, but this is stupid. Without Chaisson we are incrementally worse. Who knows when that difference will change an L to a W? If the answer is never, then let’s eliminate Logan. Would that make a difference? Then, keep eliminating them, one at a time, until you’ve eliminated all the starters. THAT won’t make the difference between a win and a loss?

If Chaisson doesn’t affect our win-loss record why did we bother recruiting him?

You’re saying that our DE/OLB is going to be the difference between us going 8-4 compared to 10-2? 11-1 to 9-3? He’s not a QB dawg. I know what I am talking about, and apparently 25 people agree with me compared to only 3 that disagree. Of course if you take multiple starters out it will effect the game. However this is 1 defensive starter. Chill out, and think before you speak. We recruited him to come in and play defense, and dominate. Just because we recruited him doesn’t mean he effects our win loss record. You honestly think our defense is way worse? Yeah right we have depth. Sorry, but you are wrong.

Okay, let’s play. I’ll take this real slow since you didn’t understand it n the first place.
If we lose Logan would that make a difference in our record?

BTW, just reread your post. My God, how do you function in day-to-day life? I clearly stated that we don’t know if Chaisson will make a difference. That is in opposition to the poster who said it would not make a difference. You then accused me of saying it would make a two game difference. Holy shite, can you read?

That was not a great analogy. Are you asking if we lost Logan on top of Chassion would it effect our record? Or just Logan? My answer to both would be no.

My point is that as I keep adding players any reasonable person will eventually say yes. It is a point that I made above, but it was too sweeping for some, so I decided to make it in slow motion.

The larger point, as I implied in my original post, was that we became an incrementally inferior team when Chaisson got hurt (this is undeniable), and we don’t know if this will be the difference in wins and losss.

no way to hide it, its a substantial loss, we don't have anyone else with that length and speed. the drop-off in the , already inconsistent, pass rush will be felt

Andre Anthony time. Would have played last year had he not gotten injured.

Tiger nation will like what they see. That position has a ton of athletes.

Chaisson isn’t replaceable. But not expecting a huge drop off.

They are the same size, but Chaisson looks bigger than Anthony on the field for some reason. KC seems to have longer limbs and torso

Chaisson was a guy who theoretically could have made this defense even better.

Right now, I think we are going to have a problem getting pressure on the QB consistently unless we are bringing an extra guy.

I was more worried about Ingram. Only losing him for 2-3 weeks is great news




Ingram? Do you mean Magee?

That's one of the dumbest posts I've ever read on here...and I agree that losing Chaisson is a big deal. But, your "reasoning" is retarded.

You know what the funny part is...after last season there were people calling Chaisson overrated. There were some who predicted Travez Moore was gonna come and take his spot.Check the archives if you don't believe me.

Tells us how much you know. The majority never voted for Hitler. He came to power in a coup. Even with election fixing and shenanigans and never had a clear majority. Actually 36.8% LINK Castro was a revolutionary and set up a one party system for an island nation. Majority....??? Tell that to the current generation of Cuban-Americans whose ancestors left Cuba over 50 years ago and then the second wave in late 70's residing in South Florida and throughout the rest of USA.

As far as majorities, yes they can be wrong or right. But I am not sure this place is necessarily a popularity contest. Chaisson being out hurts and so does Ingram. But this is when depth comes into play. Chaisson won't cost us one game along. It forces the next man up to raise his level of play and Aranda to become more creative. The D will survive and is still a force.
