[THE PISTONS]

Good teams deal with injuries better than bad teams, but I can post plenty of examples of good teams that had their seasons ruined by injuries. The Bengals were not a good team before they got hit by all these injuries, but they would definitely be a much better team without them.  

Anyone who claims injuries don't effect other teams is clueless about the NFL.

So you think teams stay 100% healthy ALL season?

The 49ers this year seems to be doing just fine without BOTH of their starting Tackles.

The Saints were 6-0 without Brees.

The Packers won the SB a handful of years back with a lot of starters on IR.

The Steelers have won a few games without Roethlisberger.

Yet...Green gets hurt and we're 0-8. So we shouldn't have won a SINGLE GAME WITHOUT GREEN?
