wrong I know you think that's funny but the way they've been playing there's no quit in this team 18 true injuries some very long this is 2020 all over again it just can't be adjusted for it there is just no way to overcome it I don't care how well Jerry would have done if we had Howie Roseman on this team in the offseason he would not have been able to overcome all these injuries it's just too many yeah some of those are just nagging injuries but we've lost a lot of players for multiple weeks like 4 to 8 weeks some for the season they're real yes all teams have a long injury list at this time of the year some of them are they'll just play through they're nagging injuries but this team has gone through attrition and there's no denying it but I haven't seen any quit this isn't a deante Johnson there ain't one guy on here that pulled one of those things have they they've been true soldiers..

POOR play is much more the reason for our record than injuries
Absolutely. Its not like this group played all that well to start the year when they were mostly healthy.

If this team were legitimately in the playoff race a lot of these injuries wouldnt lead to missed time or at least as much missed time. Lamb would not have been on the sideline last week, Martin probably chooses to fight through the pain, etc. In a year like this though it does make sense to play it conservative with injured players though.

You have zero proof any of that is true. Our injury list looked nothing like this the past 3 years, so the staff didn’t magically get so bad that they are even perky to blame for that injuries.

The speculation that occurs on the Fan Zone devolves into the obtuse so regularly that I can’t help but feel that our fan base just isn’t that smart.
Imagine that, a forum where people voice speculation and opinion! GASP! The audacity. Oh wait...forums are MEANT for such things and discussion, not just "Rah rah we're the best!" Rather than insinuate the stupidity of fellow posters, how just give your dissenting opinion or do you feel the need to attack other posters to make yourself feel better?

Specifically which injuries are you blaming them for?
I don't have a list of each injury but I would say the majority of our starters have missed time with something. Obviously our offseason programs are crap. I don't know if these guys are new or not but they need to find another job.

We had a lot of injuries in Campos final year because a lot of the players just wanted to collect a check and that's why Parcells made it very uncomfortable in the training room turning the air conditioner way down, but I don't think we had this many. This is inexcusable.

6 are full participants, and 4 of the “limited” were designated Not Injury Related/Rest”. The list isn’t really that big.

Injuries are about happenstance.

No one complained about the strength and conditioning coaches when they (except for Diggs) were about as healthy as could be expected for the playoff disaster last season.

Most of these guys have their own trainers anyway.

When a leg gets twisted in a pile I don’t see how you blame it on training.
