Not enough information to make this assessment.

Yes, the pods could have contributed to the chains popping off, but thats not proof. Many teams (mine included, without tensioners) ran chains to the wheel pods without a chain ever popping off.

Can you give us more info about your chain routing/tensioning? maybe even a picture?
