Chavous out for Good

**VikingsTw** · 01-03-2005, 01:55 AM

This sucks. I like Chavous, more personally than on the field. He saves alot of TD's by his good tackling. He's been somewhat of a disapointment to some of us. Maybe i've been a little harsh on him. I feel bad for the guy, hes been here for 3 years, the whole three year plan that has been a strugle. We finally make the post season and the poor guy gets injured, got feel for him

.

Offord will most likly start, hes been the backup for three years now and its time to find out if we totaly wasted a 3rd round pick on him. I know he studies with and works with chavous alot, i hope he can step up for at least this game. By the way he did not blow the bomb to that kid on the redskins, it was winfields fault.

I hope he can be of some help to Offord.
Even though he is done for this season,he should be o.k. for next season.There are worse ways to"fracture his elbow"than a fx radius.An MRI should show any other damage.He will be sore for a long time,the tendons around the elbow don't heal too quickly.Good luck to him on his recovery and GO VIKINGS!!KILL PACKERS!!

Can you say screwed next week. OFFord is a lot worse than chavous and is very comparable to a derk ross type player. I hope im wrong but i wasnt impressed at all with offord at saftey the past few years.
