I agree with Beicheck on this. Less team organized off season work, and less contact during that work is quietly leading to MORE off season non contact season ending injuries. Coaches are given less and less time to do more and more work. These guys are trying to go full tilt from a dead stop in alot of cases. 10 years ago how many players did we see lost for the season without taking a snap in a contact drill?? And the rash of season ending leg injuries speaks directly to lack of conditioning.

Here's my take on why so many players in the NFL go down with injuries. No more steroid use. Steroid use is still a major problem in HS and Colleges all over this country...and that is a cold hard FACT.

Decision coming soon for the NFL and TB, possibly today.

I firmly believe Brady orchestrated the deflation, the text messages make that pretty clear. But I'm rooting against the NFL in this lawsuit to further damage Roger Goodell. When was the last time you said to yourself "yep Goodell got this one right"? Worst commish in any sport ever. I want him out and hopefully this will help. But the dude is Teflon and even with the loss of one of his biggest supporters in Kraft he will probably stay and continue to dole out punishment randomly.

Needs to happen.

NFL owners to discuss changing Roger Goodell’s role in disciplinary process — www.washingtonpost.com — Readability

Excerpt

Owners of NFL teams plan to discuss the possibility of changing Commissioner Roger Goodell’s role in the player disciplinary process, several people familiar with the situation said Friday.

Although it’s uncertain whether Goodell’s authority would be reduced, the decision to reevaluate his role resolving appeals is the first solid sign the outcome of Tom Brady’s court case could have a lasting and significant impact on his position.

“There will certainly be discussion about that,” one owner said, speaking on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the topic. The owner said he is “not sure where it will lead.”
