Is Our System Physically Tough On Linebackers?

[mgteich]

We seem to almost always have at least one linebacker injured, sometimes out. This has affected Hightower, Collins, McClellan, and Freeny. It is good that we have additional depth in Roberts and Mingo (and Ninkovich).

So, GM Belichick is prepared. We have lots of depth.

This is NOT a problem, other than how much to pay LB's that are often injured. However, making believe that we will have three healthy top LB's at any given time seems unreasonable.
