View Full Version : Is OL a cursed position on this team?

It seems like every year we lose three of them to major injuries.

The whole line except Flo in 2002.

DiNapoli and Al Johnson in 2003 with a hobbled LA and Ryan Young for most of the year.

Things looked to be going okay until DiNap on the PUP last week (stress fracture during the offseason) and now Peterman likely done for the year.

Now think back to how many serious injuries we've had on the DL lately? Still thinking.

The bad part is this is a part of the team we have invested heavily in both in terms of salary and draft picks. Hopefully Peterman makes a good recovery and is ready by next year. In the grand scheme of things he probably wouldn't have been active this year anyway, but I always feel more comfortable with extra depth on the OL after what we've been through lately.
