I'll spare a lengthy opening post about this, because most Zoners already have a baseline opinion one way or another, but I'm interested to see where the thoughts lie now.

Question is in the title: are we as the fans good to go with Woicik with the continued hamstring injuries? Yes or no, and why?

Mods - a poll would be great too if you still do those.
 
I don't think Woicik is in charge of stretching before practice. And the majority of the hamstring issues have been minor. I think they've been pretty healthy this training camp overall.
 
i mean its hard to say because i dont really follow other teams enough to say hamstrings are a big problem everywhere but its become comical how hamstring injuries always hit our players....every year without fail.
 
Keep in mind that it's been the rookies - who are adjusting to the NFL and have worked with Woicik the least - who are having these hamstring issues.

And I firmly believe that the Cowboys are being overly cautious in bringing them back when the games don't count.

That said, on a related note, I think the entire NFL can do a better job of physical training. A huge focus on the weight room, but little to none on yoga, Pilates, or a dedicated stretching program. The first team to take that seriously will have a distinct advantage in my opinion.
 
This team so extra cautious with these players.

We are going into the season with only one significant injury. Virtually every player besides Hitchens will be available week one.

That's good news.

Tom Brady has made this a huge part of his training program, for what it's worth.

Yoga does nothing for muscles stretching does. Yoga is about spiritualism, stretching is about physically stretching ur muscles. You can stretch muscles without wasting any of your time on the spiritualism of yoga.

And that's part of the reason why he's an iron man who rarely if ever gets hurt who's playing at a championship level into his 40's.
 
Matt Johnson, greatest safety that hammied out.

Miles Hamstring..

We need a list going...

Ever since Yogi has starting doing yoga with Yoda, he's more flexible than the average bear.

I think there is something in the water in Oxnard.....Switzer had never had a hamstring injury before. Maybe it is the cooler temps there!
