Scooby's Hubby Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 (edited) With the league wanting to expand to more regular season games, I began to think of teams seasons ruined by injury, who this year has suffered the most? I was thinking Detroit. Their defense was keeping them in games, but when Stafford went down immediately, not to mention Best, their season was done. One could make a case for Indy with Dallas Clark, et al, or Dallas with Romo (although I think Dallas was already done). AZ has had their share, too and being in a weak division could have been the most effected. Green Bay is another ... What team in your opinion has been most effected, for the worse, by injury this year? Edited December 5, 2010 by Scooby's Hubby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdrudge Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 One could make a case for Indy with Dallas Clark, et al,My vote would be for Indy...and not just because their my team. While Detroit's record is worse due to their injuries, I don't think anyone thought they were contenders this year in their division. Indy has lost more games this year then they have since 2002, and if they lose one more they've tied that mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T_bone65 Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 Indy by a landslide as far as number and the level of importancy of the players Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chinatown dragons Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 Indy by a landslide as far as number and the level of importancy of the players I'd throw San Diego into the discussion as well....revolving door at WR.....Matthews in and out of the line up....Gates banged up.....Rivers is having an incredible season, with no clear 'go to guy', as it changes every week...

I was thinking San Diego, too. Injuries all over the place. But Pitt, if you count Big Ben suspension, could be a candidate b/c of O-Line injuries alone. What about TENN?

STL Fan Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 Homer alert! As with Detroit, the expectations were low, but the Rams lost about 75 wide receivers to injury this year as well. Indy probably has it worse, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Colts or Chargers I think, Pack gets consideration too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
