[QUOTE="PFanCan, post: 741269, member: 1989"] IMO, I disagree with the notion that the Packers are "the most injured team in the NFL" or anything of this notion. I live in Houston. Try to tell anyone here that GB is worse off than the Texans, especially after the last game... Ok, I went here: [URL]https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/injuries.htm[/URL] and built a pivot table from the data, using only those that are either "Out" or on IR: BAL 18 DET 14 NOR 13 NYG 13 CHI 13 NYJ 12 HOU 11 CAR 10 SFO 10 MIA 10 SEA 10 IND 9 CLE 9 NWE 9 KAN 9 WAS 8 PHI 8 GNB 7 LAC 7 TAM 7 DAL 7 DEN 7 CIN 7 MIN 6 JAX 6 ARI 6 TEN 5 BUF 5 OAK 5 LAR 4 ATL 4 PIT 2 Grand Total 271 Of course, this doesn't show criticality of who is out, but it is a start. As you can see, GB isn't the worst in terms of raw numbers, in fact is in the better "bottom" half. Now, let's look at some details, starting with GB's list of seven: [ATTACH=full]3946[/ATTACH] Not a starter on the list, save our long snapper. Let's look at GB's doubtful and questionable list for next week: [ATTACH=full]3947[/ATTACH] That's more substantial. Let's look at just a single other team, say, NYG, starting with the IR/Out: [ATTACH=full]3948[/ATTACH] Oh my! Yes, this list got much worse on Sunday with Beckham's injury. But it was bad prior. Also, questionable and doubtful for NYG: [ATTACH=full]3949[/ATTACH] Some pain on this list, too. Longer and plenty of starters missing for NYG, too. So, at least ONE team looks to have been bitten worse by the injury bug this year thus far than the Packers. I would guess that we would find more evidence of other teams worse off if I continued to mine the data, namely Baltimore, Carolina, Detroit, Houston, and Seattle. Oh, Indy, too, with bad "Luck" of over 6 on IR. And, don't forget New England with Eldeman and quite of few other key players out on IR. Wait, KC, too... Achille's tendons seem to be their, um, achille's heal this year. Ok, one more, Philly is pretty banged up and missing starters. There is the data. No real evidence, IMO that GB is worse off than all or even most other NFL teams right now. Edit: Minor typo [/QUOTE]
