Hats off to the Strength and Conditioning Coaches....

[DarrylS]

In the past there has always been an tendency to blame the Strength and Conditioning staff for untimely injuries to Pats players on this message board .. now maybe it is time to reverse the trend and acknowledge them leading the NEP to a healthy Superbowl..

Up to this year, not verified, always seemed that there were a rash of injuries in the subsequent season after playing the extended schedule that accompanies SB appearances..

Gotta think that maybe the influence of Brady/Guererro and their emphasis on pliability may be part of the ingredient that has led to the good health of this team..

Moses Cabrera:

Moses Cabrera enters his third season as the Patriots head strength and conditioning coach after five seasons as the Patriots assistant strength and conditioning coach. Cabrera took over for Harold Nash, who he assisted in the team's year-round conditioning program for five seasons. Cabrera joined the organization on March 31, 2011, after one season as an assistant strength coach at the University of Colorado. During his time in Boulder, Cabrera was responsible for the implementation of strength and conditioning programs for the school's football team.

Deron Mayo, Jerrods Brother.. did not even know there was a connection:

Deron Mayo enters his first season as assistant strength & conditioning coach with the New England Patriots in 2018. Mayo joins the organization after playing linebacker for the Calgary Stampeders of the Canadian Football League for six seasons. He assists Moses Cabrera in the team’s year-round strength and conditioning program.
