Here's a fascinating take by McGinn on what could potentially solve our injury issues: http://www.jsonline.com/sports/pack...or-rash-of-injuries-b9985208z1-221490581.html
Essentially, institute live tackling during training camp, which in theory conditions the body to it more and gets them playing full bore, rather than less than 100%. I'm not sure if it's coincidence that the teams he talked to that do live tackling are also healthy (and he may not have referenced/cited those teams that do live tackling and still have injuries for purposes of furthering his argument) or just luck. But, his point that we've continually been among the most injured teams does call into question our M.O. At this point, what's the harm in trying the new approach? I think I'd be for it - plus, he can (hopefully) further utilize the live tackling to toughen our team for facing the likes of 49ers and Giants.
