Just to be clear, i have never held the belief that the Seahawks have more injuries than other teams. I do think it's unusual to consistently have players you just drafted miss most or all of the season due to injury, in some cases pre-existing.

Find it he hard to believe patriots are manipulating numbers to such an extent to impact the numbers that much. For one thing they aren't the only team to be accused of it. But who knows, can't find any information. If you search fake injury reports all you get is faking injuries during games which had become a big deal but they weren't involved.

Yeah, given all the injuries to drafted players.........guys stepping on the the VMAC property for the first time with injuries, we have to come close to leading the league in that dept.

This is interesting, football outsiders compiles a lot of injury data.
Of all the data they’ve compiled, the one stat that stands out as being nearly off-the-charts concerns when injuries happen – in terms of player-seasons – to NFL players.

Here are Football Outsiders’ compilation of prior seasons played and numbers of weeks lost due to injury for NFL players:

Rookie: 16,637
2nd year: 2,795
3rd year: 1,855
4th year: 1,183
5th year: 890
That rookies would miss six times more weeks of play than second-year players is stunning. Furthermore, I would think there are more fourth-year players getting playing time than rookies and yet rookies accumulate fourteen times more missed weeks of play

Hawks might not be that far out of line with drafted players

That would make new England being that big an outlier even stranger
Why? hasn't Bill been the HC for all those years....
Tom Brady was on every injury report. And almost always played and was pretty much never limited.

Hearing speculation that Morris' injury may have been a result of the weight he was required to add.

Maybe he enjoys doing cart wheels or hand stands?
