I know fans say injuries are part of the game, but losing Green and Eifert was huge plus Bernard injured and so Hill tried to play injured but kept getting knocked out of games. Some better luck on injuries helps to turn that 6-9-1 into more wins. THAT AND A KICKER THAT DOESN'T LOSE GAMES MISSING EXTRA POINTS.....Pro Bowl Dalton to Pro Bowl AJ Green and Pro Bowl Eifert and also LaFell and Boyd and Core. Hill healthy scoring touchdowns. This team could lead the NFL in points scored. Plus we still have the draft and Bengals want the LSU running back if he is there when they pick. Bengals player director which is as close to a GM as we will get, says he wants the LSU RB. .......There is more going on here than adding a LB. We did need a LB. Getting this LB and getting Smith back on O Line makes drafting the LSU RB very possible. The hope is he comes on big like Elliot did for Dallas.
We were 3-6-1 in the games Green and Gio played in. Injuries weren't the problem. Yes, Nugent missed some kicks, but if you watched all of last season and came to any conclusion other than "the offensive line is killing this team", you need to get your eyes checked.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
