Saw this in a newspaper today:
_____
The last 10 Super Bowl champions lost an average of 30 man-games by starters because of injury, but if one takes out the Patriots of '03 and '04 (who combined for 142 lost games), that figure drops to 19.8. That makes clear how remarkable those two Patriot championship teams were.
______
That's right, the Pats averaged 71 lost games to injury during those two years when the avg non-NE SB Champ over the past decade had 19.8.
.........and there are those who would criticize this organization's method of stocking the team with depth over high priced frontline talent.
