Training Staff

[SDogo]

Who the heck runs our training staff? I have never seen so many injuries and not just serious ones but little nagging injuries pop up during a season? Is this some thing that has followed Wade Phillips around or is this a staff we have had in place for some time?

its not training staff fault...it lies at the feet of marshmallow man for his weak training camps and lack of conditioning.................

I hate to be cliche....but it's the NFL. Like Forrest Gump even figured out, **** happens.

We were extremely lucky last year with not having to face these type of situations. How teams deal with it is what matters most.

It sucks for sure, but I think we can and will overcome this "bug".

Even though the roster looks like it - this isn't Madden. More expensive training staff's do not prevent injuries and improve recovery times.

What if our players eat mushrooms like these: http://img242.*************/img242/3136/mariomushroomvp7.gif, will they increase in size?

Bug? 19 friggin athletes injured at one time or another. 19.


You're right. It's how teams deal with the injuries. We don't. Wonder why?

Bad luck as in 19 injuries or we don't have jack for back-up's? Super secret double bad luck?

Bad luck on injuries, no question.

As for the lack of production by the backups, not many teams could sustain all the losses we have to key guys and still be really good. When you combine that with atrocious special teams and a general lack of quality coaching on a week to week basis, you get what we see.

The same staff that was vaunted when we had 2 years of relatively free injuries. Besides pulls or sprains players roll on each other, smash themselves to a pulp, get chopped, flipped, sliced and diced. Maybe you should make your beef with the Creator.

Yessir!

And a coach that was dead serious concerning conditioning. All the way down to you're fat, you don't play. You run.

I said it in another thread, I think the problem lies with the team doctors not the traning staff. Look at Koiser, Newman, possibly Roy(biscut) and Felix. I think they were cleared to come back too soon, which while the training staff may have input, it is proabably the team doctors who have final say whether a player is cleared to fully come back.

Over the 5 years I would be willing to be we have been one of the healthiest teams in the league. It's a contact sport eventually injuries were going to hit us.

Nothing is wrong with the training staff, every team in the NFL suffers injuries, part of the game dude... It's up to the remaining players to man up and still win!

Human beings are so fickle. Always looking to blame someone. Gotta be someone's fault right?
