Whats up with our Strength & Conditioning Coaches?

[egn22]

Why aren't more questions being asked about this? Miles hamstring, now Sean Lee, Felix Jones was always hurt, Murray's been hurt, Ratliff.... he left to rehab on his own because he had no faith in this staff, Ware's hammy is hurt. Durant's hammy is hurt. Not sure what Claiborne's issue is or Wilcox.

But for 2 years in a row, our team has been decimated with injuries. Is this concerning to anyone else?

clowns like the rest of the staff.. any time I hear of a small injury I expect it to be a month at least before we hear about that person being ready to go again

Players get hurt. Colts seem to be doing good despite missing a significant portion of their offense. Your GM has to do a better job with depth.

Depth is great until you have to use it.

Injuries are quite a bit about luck as well.

I'm not taking all the stuff off our staff but really injuries can't be coach or completely avoided no matter how good you are. I mean Austin has had injury concerns of one form or another his entire career. Lee has had injuries going back to college. Same as Murray.

This really isn't anything shocking.

The thing is with more and more people having to go lower and lower for tackles because of the stupid rules in the league now you can start expecting more and more injuries as well.

Yes, I don't know if its just a statistical anomaly, but the amount of injuries (hamstrings in particular) have been staggering. Not only that, but the timelines for rehab are often wildly optimistic with reinjuries frequent.

 

[Common Sense]

Injuries can also be a result of how you build up a body.

I believe our Strength and Conditioning coach has about 5 or 6 rings...so I think he knows what he is doing.

We wasted relatively healthy years in 2006,2007,2009 and 2011. Now we are paying the price for those years. We needed to make hay when we were healthy but we always seemed to have the attitude of "Oh well there's always next year". It is biting us in the butt now. The window is all but closed on the core of this team.

yeah he's doing great here. never mind, disregard this thread.

I think the new CBA rules the NFL enforced to cut down on practices and such has rendered Woicik useless now

 

[MRV52]

What did guys expect when we have to go to the waiver wire to bring in strength and conditioning coaches every week.

 

[MRV52]

Next years CBA. All players will only be able to practice on Game Days.

egn, I'm concerned with the number of hamstring injuries we have on this team. Before last night, there was Austin and Claiborne. Now, there's Durant and Lee. You can't tell me that this is normal. I think it's time for the Cowboys to look long and hard at their training staff. This can't continue.

I'll just assume he is another one of Garrett's cronies from a bygone era like 90% of the other people involved in this team.

We plucked the guy off the pats, were he won 3 more superbowls.

the players were injury prone before he got here. Its silly to blame him.

 

[Sarge]

There were like 8000 injuries in the Packers/Eagles game this week. They were dropping like flies play after play. Injuries happen.

Clearly he can control muscle pulls.
