I can understand that, but you guys still have the main piece of the puzzle, aka Rodgers.
Draft and develop is always the key, but I'd have to wonder about your strength and conditioning program. Considering you guys are always injury ridden, something has to give. Why/how are you guys always dealing with so many injuries? Obviously it's just apart of the game and that shit happens. Maybe I'm wrong, but don't you guys usually lead, or are within the top 5 or so of injuries during the season, year after year? It simply can't just be bad luck, over and over.
How many different things is Pettine bringing to the Def? Are you guys staying a 3-4 base front? How much (obviously it's a small sample size so far) is changing from the previous scheme, to this new scheme that Pettine is bringing?
We usually have the average number of injured players each year...sometimes a little worse. Unfortunately we usually spread that number across extremely critical positions a la offensive line, cornerbacks, outside linebackers. Many a season where the top 1, 2, 3 options go down at one spot which just ends up being too much to make up for.
