This is becoming too regular to be coincidence.

The medical staff is overly cautious, when there isn’t a misdiagnosis, and the coaching staff has a “next man up” mentality. Thus, the results.

Well, the Vikings have Percy Harvin, who I believe has been questionable to play in every game he’s ever been in.

From this graph, does it seem to you like more teams running a 3-4 base defense have more injuries than teams running the 4-3? Maybe I’m just seeing things, since many of our IR victims were on the offensive side of the ball. You might notice a small trend that many of the “power” teams have fewer injured than the “finesse” or “passing” offense teams as well. Maybe I’m reading the graph wrong…

Went and looked at the breakdown on Deadspin and on one chart they listed the teams that had the highest percentage of players that actually played on Sunday after being listed as questionable all week.

Guess who was #1 in telling lies?

You guessed it – the chili-eating mouth breathers to the west.

Skol Vikings!

I noticed that the 49ers and the Falcons are in the top 5 for healthiest teams..

Right Doug. Is this a coaching/trainer issue?

Any data going back a few years? I know all teams have injuries, but it seems like the Pack has been leading the way in that regard for a few years now. Is that consistent bad luck, or a medical or strength training staff that doesn’t get guys prepared or of the sidelines effectively enough?
