We have had horrible injury luck as opposed to Seattle the last two years.

This is what happens when you draft/sign injury prone players... Too late to bring John Lott back? WTH!!!!????

Oh no...he won't be missed, I remember many here saying that. Lol

Let's start by firing Roger Kingdom, then go on from there.

Yes the hamstring injuries does create a strong argument that BA needs to have the players stretch as part of practice and maybe even our current S&C coaches are a possible problem. But to include ankle injuries into that argument is stretching things.

I'm fairly confident that Buddy Morris doesn't have a history of his players having above average injury results.

Isn't stretching mandatory in a common sense type way?

There is a whole body of research that indicates that stretching doesn't prevent injuries.

oy... I think back in FA, I called most our Atlanta signings boom or bust (lots of guys with injury histories) and now we've seen our first bust from them... while the second guy hasn't even stepped on the field yet. That sucks. Luckily, the D-line is one area I think we have solid depth. just wish we weren't delving into that depth already.

any word on how Weatherspoon's hammy is doing? i'm pretty much expecting nothing from him this year.

Now that sucks.

Corey Peters was looking pretty good at nose.

Getting Xiaver Williams as a UDFA is turning out to be huge for this team.

Totally agree on both counts, RM. Feel bad for Peters---such a spirited guy. Hope he comes back strong.
