This team is soft as butter. The strength & conditioning team/trainers/whoever have done a p*ss poor job year in & year out. My job would can me right away if i routinely displayed these results. IDC that the defense is smaller. The 2002 Tampa D had a lot of undersized players too and never had near the injury problems. Manning’s Colts defenses were on the smaller side too especially on the D-line and i can’t recall these kinds of issues either.
(and the game was twice as violent as it is now. Explain that one.)
Screw character… the focal point in the draft should be iron men who aren’t calling in sick constantly. If you aren’t on the field then you’re worth nothing to the team. Actually, you’re robbing another player of a contract that could’ve been given to them.
