Phoenix, AZ - A scare late in practice Friday caused the
Seattle Seahawks to place strong safety Kam Chancellor on
the teams last injury report before Super Bowl XLIX on
Sunday. The veteran, who is expected to be instrumental
in the Seahawks plan to stop All-World New England tight
end Rob Gronkowski, fell on the penultimate repetition of
Fridays session and exited the practice with his left
knee wrapped. Chancellor was listed as probable on the
injury report and coach Pete Carroll expressed optimism
after Saturdays walk-through that the Pro Bowl selection
would be fine by kickoff. He looked pretty good today,
Carroll said. We will make sure we test him in pregame,
but he remarkably looked great today, and so thats all we
have to go on. The Seahawks completed their Super Bowl
preparations on Saturday afternoon with a light walk-
through inside the Arizona State football practice bubble
for the third-straight day because of the
uncharacteristic rainfall in the Phoenix area. Everything
is done, Carroll said. The hay isnt in the barn ever
around here, but everything is done. Seattles walk-
through lasted 47 minutes with most players wearing
sweats and baseball caps while enigmatic running back
Marshawn Lynch decided to wear slippers. A pool report
indicated Chancellor looked comfortable while tossing
footballs with wide receiver Doug Baldwin then cornerback
Richard Sherman on the sideline. The Patriots, meanwhile,
skipped their Saturday walk-through but received some
good news of their own on the injury front when starting
center Bryan Stork, who is dealing with a balky right
knee that caused him to miss the AFC Championship Game,
was upgraded from questionable to probable for Sundays

. Samir Nasris 88th-minute equalizer at Etihad Stadium
will be of little consolation to City, which is now six
points behind league leader Liverpool and four points
behind second-place Chelsea. Third-place City has a game
in hand but the surprise result against Sunderland,
coupled with Sundays 3-2 loss at Liverpool, may be a
setback too far in its bid for a second championship in
three seasons.Last weekend was a memorable one in the
Premier League, but in between Arsenals collapse at Upton
Park and Leicesters latest triumph at the Stadium of
Light, there was a significant moment elsewhere that went
largely unnoticed, writes Nick Wright. With their 2-1 win
over Aston Villa, Bournemouth surpassed the 40-point mark
with five games to spare. As they approach the end of
their maiden season in the top flight, Eddie Howes side
are in 11th place and just three points behind defending
champions Chelsea. They are closer to the European places
than the relegation zone.Perhaps the greatest testament
to the achievement is that nobody is talking about it.
Bournemouth were supposed to be on their way back to the
Championship by now. Instead, a run of nine wins from 18
games since the start of December has given them the air
of seasoned Premier League campaigners. Their survival
hasnt looked in doubt for months. Howe hails landmark
tally Eddie Howe declared himself delighted to reach the
40-point mark with victory at Aston Villa. And yet the
circumstances could hardly have been more challenging. In
the space of a few weeks between August and September,
months of planning went out the window as club-record
signing Tyrone Mings, £7m winger Max Gradel and top
scorer Callum Wilson were struck down by knee ligament
injuries.It was a nightmare scenario equivalent to
Leicester losing Jamie Vardy, Riyad Mahrez and Christian
Fuchs, or Spurs having to cope without Harry Kane,
Christian Eriksen and Danny Rose. But Howe adapted
without complaint, and even an eight-game winless run
before Christmas wasnt enough to shake Bournemouths
spirit. Bournemouths win over Aston Villa took them past
the 40-point mark in the Premier League If you look at
what theyve done in isolation or compare it to what
everybody else has done in this league, it has been quite
a remarkable feat, former England striker Luther
Blissett, who spent three seasons at Bounemouth between
1988 and 1991, told Sky Sports.When they picked up the
injuries they were written off and people were saying
they were going to go down. They went through a period
where they couldnt buy a victory but they kept plugging
away. Youve got to give credit to the manager. He
believes in his methods and the players, and they believe
in it too.Bournemouths success owes a lot to good
coaching and hard work, with Howe demanding maximum
dedication and effort from his players at all times.
Premier League tracking data shows they cover more
distance per game than any other side, while only
Liverpool and Tottenham record more high-intensity
sprints. Most distance covered - Premier League 2015/16
Team Distance covered per game Bournemouth 117.2km
Tottenham 115.9km Liverpool 112.4km West Brom 112.2km Man
Utd 111.2km The breathless style is epitomised by
midfielder Andrew Surman, who averages 12.1km per game,
second only to Liverpools James Milner in the Premier
League. All our training is high-intensity, he told the
Daily Express in March. The manager has really high
standards. He keeps that intensity high, and he expects
it in return. If you drop your standards for one day, he
is on you.Bournemouth brought in 11 new signings to
strengthen their squad over the course of the season, but
Howe values togetherness and continuity highly. As such,
all seven of their players to have made 30 or more
Premier League appearances had a key role in their
promotion from the Championship last season, and six of
them are British, too. Bournemouths spine The seven
Bournemouth players to make 30 or more Premier League
appearances are Andrew Surman, Simon Francis, Charlie
Daniels, Matt Ritchie, Adam Smith, Dan Gosling and Steve
Cook. Hes predominantly got British players there, so for
them to be in the position they are is quite a feat,
added Blissett. Its become so acceptable to just bring
mediocre foreign players in, you forget that we have got
very good British-based players here.dddddddddddd Hes
given them an opportunity to play in the Premier League
and the rewards are obvious.Not every signing that you
bring in will be successful. So the more you bring in,
the more disharmony you create in the squad, and thats
something that never, ever goes away once you have
started down that road. He needed to keep that harmony
and belief and only bring in players who suited the club,
the manager and the style - and hes managed to do that.
Hes predominantly got British players there, so for them
to be in the position they are is quite a feat. Luther
Blissett One of the most impressive aspects of
Bournemouths survival is the manner in which they have
achieved it. The Cherries won the Championship playing
slick, possession-based football, and Howe has stuck to
his principles in the top-flight. They rank in the top 10
for passes, possession and chances created, and only
Arsenal and Everton have completed more dribbles. Most
dribbles completed - Premier League 2015/16 Team Dribbles
Arsenal 397 Everton 384 Bournemouth 371 Man City 369
Chelsea 369 Saturdays cleverly worked opener against
Aston Villa - where Matt Ritchies drag-back set up Simon
Francis from a quickly-taken corner - was an example of
Howes ability to innovate, and it is no mean feat to have
scored more goals than Manchester United in their first
season in the Premier League.You do have to adapt your
style a little bit the higher up you go, but I think the
ideal behind what youre looking to do should always be
the same, says Bissett. If your players are able to cope
with continuing what you started, then youve got to let
them get on with it. Youve got to show them that belief,
and theyve all done that at Bournemouth.They do play
decent football and they do knock the ball around, and
its good to see that theyve achieved what they have done
in that way. Even the games theyve ended up losing have
been entertaining. They go out with the intent to attack
the opposition and that is a major factor in the success
that they have had. Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe gave
his post-match thoughts to Sky Sports after beating Aston
Villa There have been heavy losses to the likes of
Manchester City and Tottenham, but Bournemouth are no
pushovers and Howe has shown tactical expertise,
too.Along with Arsenal, they are one of only two sides
unbeaten in two games against Leicester this season, and
with their battling goalless draw at the King Power
Stadium in January, they became one of only three sides
to stop Claudio Ranieris men from scoring.Liverpool,
Chelsea, Everton and Manchester United are among
Bournemouths opponents in their final five games of the
season, but they can approach the daunting run knowing
Premier League status is assured. Their achievements may
have passed under the radar, but Howe and his players are
exactly where they belong.Luther Blissetts company Bliss8
