    We should bring that dude back.

    When he was in charge of conditioning we really didn't have all that many injuries.

    I am still scratching my head about signing Cro. You want a tough, physical defense and the image of Cro jumps into your head?

    If anything, the rash of injuries shows how important it is to have A LOT of good players all over the place, including the bench. The Jets don't have a great QB, but we have good to great players galore, which is a big benefit. Of course we could always use a few more good players, no doubt, but we're in fairly good shape.

    I feel bad for teams that put all their eggs (cap dollars) into one basket. Think Vikings when they lost Peterson. How good would NE be if Brady lost a thumb?

    So keep stoking the team top to bottom with as many good players as possible and ride out the injuries. About all we can do.

    Why didn't the Jets think of that?

    So what you are saying is we are dealing with the same problems the other 31 teams are having because we are playing a contact sport that regularly involves a lot of injuries.

    And no, we wouldn't have won with a health team. We would have lost because Antonio Cromartie was playing cornerback for us.

    Maybe Mac and Bowles are on here under assumed avatars lmao

    They prob have interns spying the Board heh

    I definitely agree the team needs some Muscle Milk in their diet as part of conditioning, it will help teach them tackling skills and how to slide

    I'm sure there have been plenty of Jets players/coaches/front office people on here over the years.

    whatever happened to that strength and conditioning coach that used to trip opposing players as they ran past him down the sidelines? Sal something or other? Get him back! If tomlin can do it in Pittsburgh why can't the Jets ??? Who's with me? No one? Again?:cool::mad::(;):oops::D

    Yeah, other teams injuries for some reason skyrocketed when he was on the sidelines.

    I've often wondered about this.
    Then I think, "Wow, they must think we are complete buttholes".
    But yes, almost certainly players and staff on the forum if you ask me.

    Who cares about that one incident if the guy is good at his job otherwise?

    Bring him back.

    Hamstrings don't just go away while you are playing. He had a chance to bust it outside once or twice Saturday and he just did not take it. I figured he was hurting.

    blame it on the current NFL players/owners agreement: Lots of money and reduced training

    Brady Quinn definitely knows something about HGH. He probably wouldn't have been drafted without it.

    So you're saying you should try to build a team with as many good players on the roster without exceeding the cap?

    Ground breaking philosophy.
