So without the injuries we've had, TT has put together a fine team. Got it.

The Te'o injury hurts. But at the very least we covered Ingrams and Williams spots with capable players. I personally think Freeney goes off this year. And i say that because what i saw in pre-season was a player on a mission. He was dominating what was in front of him. He was driving guys back like he did when he was in his prime. We need to keep him healthy. DX will be missed but at least TuTu has some chemistry with Rivers. Its an opportunity for our Rookie to get more snaps and show his talent.

The Gehlk: Manti Te'o not practicing today with foot injury suffered Aug. 8. Hasn't practiced since. Was sidelined in opener.

@sdutCanepa: @UTgehlken Probie, is there anyone who can tell us exactly what's wrong with this guy? "Foot" is weak.

If you're not a hall of famer after week 1, there's no hope for you.

And that's relevant to the topic?

Directed more at Canepa's tweet suggesting that there's more than meets the eye.

I have been saying thete is smoke. The smoking boot will turn into a hot foot for McCoy.

Even if we don't IR Manti, this is already shaping up to be a lost season for him (and us). He essentially missed all of pre-season; and now, the first 2 games of the regular season, at least. That will put him about 6 weeks behind when it comes to being in game shape...and counting.

Wasn't it already a lost "rebuilding" season for the Chargers according to the Doom Patrol months ago?

EDIT: Having said that, it is certainly disappointing for Telesco's 2nd round pick that we gave up a 4th rounder for also. Not a good start with Te'o, let's hope he can make us forgot all of this sooner than later.
