Not even week one and already in disarray. Football is back.

Eesh. 

Can't say I would've done that. Not a right or wrong, I just would've waited to address it until after the game if possible. I hate going into games with a cloud already over us. Seen that too often lately. Then again, it's not like sitting on a wildcard like that is always safe either- Jones pops off again prior to the game (or even worse, during the game if we’re losing) and it stays a massive headache. 

Not ideal either way.

just not much he can say, i believe coaches are required to speak to media, and he knew it was going to be brought up, so hopefully everyone was comfortable with this response. 

def not ideal, but, this is where we need our captains to step up at practice. No Distractions, get back to work, esp now that its game time

Not sure what’s going on with Jones but I’m so tired of these vets cashing out with the Raiders only to make us look like fools. He was unproductive last year and the only positive from him imo was going to be his leadership and showing Wilson and young DL the ropes, but we get this ****. I hope it works out, but we know better.

Man sometimes these things can come out of nowhere, I don't think it's fair to put this particular thing on the front office. Mental health can just be like that.

I know we can’t hold this new regime accountable for anything except signing maxx and adams. Everything that’s not good is just bad luck…

I mean this happens all the time no big deal

Not sure if you have any experience with mental health, but this does in fact happen all of the time. Stick to what you know bud.

Yeah I know he has the family history but still a little shocked. Honestly though, it can happen with anyone so it is what it is. Hope he is ok.

Wasn’t aware of the family hx part. Can you elaborate?

Want to say it’s about 25 in  money if he’s cut this year, and 12 next year. I always figured we’d post June 1 him next year.

I know way too much about bipolar, concussions, schizophrenia don’t get me on the meds they push…even had to visit people at Jon George. Got a teammate locked up for murder cause too many concussions turned him crazy (back when it was smelling salt and what day is tests). You don’t know me or what I’ve been thru stick to chandler.

again if you known someone for years this type of behavior isn’t a surprise. I’m pretty sure that we both don’t know chandler but guess who tf does…

What does post June 1 mean exactly?

You act like all of these disorders are one in the same. My point stands, you don’t know Chandler so it’s out of line to assume he had shown these traits before. Trust me I know about these things all too well so how about we keep it to football instead of trying to assign a developed mental illness that is pure speculation on a front office?

His brother Jon is a fantastic MMA fighter, but dude is an absolute head case to the nth degree. 

I'm not aware of his other brother, Arthur, having much drama outside of a short PED suspension though.

But Jon...it's a cautionary and sad tale. Dude is probably the best MMA fighter to ever walk the earth, but he's basically Josh Gordon and Antonio Brown rolled into one. He's spent about as much time suspended as he has actually fighting- some of it's been acting up without any justifiable cause, some of it has been clear mental breaks out of left field.

His brother has dealt with addiction and substance abuse problems.

Could split the 12 mil in dead money over two years. So instead of 12 for 1 it’d be 6 for 2 years.
