The Redskins have twice been the most injured team in football. Is that bad luck or bad planning?

Redskins players are getting injured because they aren't prepared for hitting.

They've had the most injuries over the last 2 seasons and I'm willing to bet they've done the least amount of hitting in practice.

Gruden babies players when they get a minor injury. By the time they are healed, they haven't hit anyone in weeks and get tossed out into a game without being ready.

People just need to accept that a lot of this is bad luck and move on.

Thing is with the latest CBA nobody hits like they used to in practice. They simply can't do it anymore.

I wonder if part of it is not being properly stretched and warmed up before practice and games. Back in my day the big guys seemed to not be overly fond of stretching and if coaches weren't watching them would make half ass efforts if that.

Opponents play one game a year at most at Fedex. If it is a bad field, and we know it is, our guys play on it 8 games and parts of 2 preseason games.

It's the season long grind on the field that is the concern, not one week's 60 minutes.

Always keep QB's cause it's the most important position on your team. Probably should have kept Sudfeld or at least drafted someone instead of signing scrubs like Sanchez, Johnson and the guy from Stanford.

Hopefully these guys have learned from their mistakes. Look in the mirror and use common sense, instead of hiring "consultants." lol.
After 2 years of this I'm glad they're turning over every stone possible looking for solutions.

Overall we were less injured than Philly, Indy, and the chargers.

According to the third chart our injuries were extremely one sided.

We were the most injured team on offense, obviously at the most important position.

On the flip side, we were the least injured team on defense.

Yes the injury bug has haunted us recently but if you are prepared as a franchise you overcome. Depth, depth n more depth. Next man up mentality. Look at the Yankees this year. Craziest injuries ive ever seen. Literally almost their entire lineup and best reliever, couple starters. Yet they got a bunch of guys stepping up and taking advantage of the opportunities.

I've said it to some of my friends. Certain jerseys make you step up even play better we use to have that years ago we need to bring it back.

At some point you have to wonder. How much bad luck is a legit problem?

Reuben Foster being carted off with apparent knee injury as I type this.

Players usually know when their ACL goes, and he was heard crying as the cart took him away.

Mason Foster and Shaun Dion Hamilton are now your starting MLBs. Sigh.
