I agree here.....but I think the injuries hurt us worse.
Flo
Crayton
Dat
Singleton
Henry
Julius
These were not injuries that took a couple of weeks to get over. These injuries were catastrophic. They were scheme-changers. And one or two catastrophic injuries a team can live with. We had mulitple injuries.....at critical positions (LT, RB, WR, and CB).
and before the season:
Rivera
Spears
Rogers
While these injuries weren't season-ending, they affected how we approached the season. Rivera's injury really hurt. We went from having two PB guards, to having just one.....and Rivera was never the same.
Spears injury hurt his development. Reports early from camp had him playing very well....up until the injury. He missed around a month of camp, and only played in one PS game.
Rogers was slated to be our starting RT. While his injury may have pointed out supposed weaknesses in character, it had a ripple-effect on our whole OL.
I think the talent was there for us to contend this last year. Another good offseason, and we're there......
