Just as soon as Nixon provides a huge special teams advantage, down he goes. Its a recurring problem, that is why it has nothing to do with bad luck. Did Hill or Waddle go out of the game? The Packers always seems to lose key players while the oppossing team rarely suffers a key injury. The Packers have a systemic problem with injuries. Until they wake up to that fact and make changes to diminish their epidemic, they won't go very far in the playoffs. I think they have issues with strength and conditioning because it shows up when they get stoned in short yardage situations. The Packers continue to be a finese team and get physically beaten which also contributes towards their injury epidemicGute could also do a better job of adding players with a history of staying healthy. Ignoring the injury epidemic and chalking it all up to bad luck is a recipe for failure.This is one of those posts that sounds like it makes sense, but is based on no empirical evidence.  I would be very surprised to find out that the Packers’ strength and conditioning program was significantly different than those of other teams.</blockquote>
