any damage to our offensive line is worse than the majority of other positions right now. Losing Chaney is huge but we have the players who can take over at LB besides him. Offensive line we are struggling mightily wihtout Brown.
No comparison. Brown was a sure-fire NFLer, while Chaney was a probably. We actually have several talented LBs, but we were already thin on Oline. The only defensive equivalent to losing Brown would be losing Pegues, and even he has better backups.
I think the point that Mike Brown was a lock for the NFL and Chaney has an outside shot of making it says a lot.
I also think that the fact that Chaney can play again and Mike's career is over at Mississippi state is a big difference.
I bring it up because I think the fall out over Chaney getting hurt may be over hyped as far as impact to our season. I hate if for Jamar he is a good guy and a hard worker.</p>
