Factor in injuries eh? That sounds like a coaches and GMs job to me. Can't sing this song every single year and expect fans to hum a long.
Players get injured. Good organisations adapt and have a plan in place. Our starting offensive line was bandaided in place and couldn't sustain a single injury. That is a Loomis and DA issue. There were no good guards or centers added to this roster the past 3 years and they let Peat leave.
Furthermore, no one is injured on the DL what is their excuse? I'm going to go with just slow and weak.
