Also, the Eagles have quite a few players on the IR again.
Aren't Wilson and Seau the only missing starters? And Miller I guess.
Harrison was gone for awhile..Hobbs was gone for a bit.
Graham has been hurt this year..Neal..
not just about IR..missing time hurts us
Some of the "big" names on Jacksonville's IR:
-Dan Connolly
-Jim Davis
-Brent Hawkins
-Brian Jones
-Elton Patterson
-Chris Roberson
-Nick Sorensen
-Tony Williams
there is also mitchell, tebucky jones, gay, and pass - not starters or stars but all solid players that could contribute at ST and add depth
add in geno and seau thats a decent sized IR
could certainly be worse
Make no mistake about it. If the Jags had stayed healthy this year, they might be good enough to win it all.
The Patriots consistently have tons of injuries as oppossed to having one year of bad injuries.
Harrison is not a bad injury? Ty Law is not bad injury? Losing your center isn't a bad injury?
what consititutes a bad injury?
i think going to the IR is bad
You're misunderstanding. I said the Pats don't just have one year where they get pelted with tons of injuries. EVERY year they are among the most injured teams in the league.

so what is your point behind your statement? are you saying bad luck or conditioning as mentionned above?
maybe they are just an incredibly physical team and that takes its toll, not too mention they played in a ton of games in their back to back superbowls.
I'm not saying anything about the reason one way or another.
My point was just that during the game the announcer said Jack Del Rio won't feel bad for the Patriots injury situation because he has a butt load himself. And my point was that on any given year there are teams with a lot of injuries, but every year the Patriots are near the top of the list of most injured teams, so I don't think teams like the Jags can say they have it as bad as them.
But I don't think it is a conditioning problem. Kraft cuts no corners and brings the team the best facilities and meal programs. I don't think the medical services and conditioning would be any different.
In fact, I believe the team has the same conditioning coach as the great Cowboys teams of the 90's, and during one of the Pats games Troy Aikman went out of his way to say how great he is.
If this is really true, then the conditioning program should be questioned.
