00:00I just wanted a question. I know Dan Campbell's a relatively new coach in the league, per se,
00:05and he puts these guys out on practice very hard during the whole week, and it's very curious to
00:12me that there's twice as many injuries on this team than others, and I'm just wondering about
00:16the fatigue factor in all these guys. Maybe he's working them too hard, and maybe in years
00:21in the future he's not going to go to that system, but right now it seems like he's working
00:25these guys way too hard. Okay, it seems like that, or that's your theory? I believe. How
00:34do you have twice as many injuries as other teams? These guys are fatigued. First of all,
00:40I'll start with this. He's not relatively new. In fact, he's the 11th most tenured coach in the NFL
00:44right now, which is hard to believe. And he actually played the National Football League,
00:48and many of the injuries, because one of my daughters asked me the same thing, or my wife
00:53said, do they need a training thing? I said, no. Hutchinson and Anzalone broke bones during play,
00:59that's, I mean, and most of their injuries have been like that. Yeah, I mean, Davis has a broken
01:05jaw, McNeil and ACL, Montgomery and MC, I mean, these are not like, you know, high ankle sprains
01:13or, you know, hamstring injuries that take place in practice. There's some weird ones,
01:19like I'm not quite sure what's up with Derek Barnes, that's another player that could come
01:22back. But if that's the case, then I suppose they'll adjust. But going back to, is Dan Campbell
01:32perfect? Probably not. No. But the net net of what Dan Campbell has brought to this team is so
01:39overwhelmingly positive. It's a damn good thing they're deep. Yeah, absolutely. And the fact that,
01:45you know, when you look back and think, oh my lord, they hired Dan Campbell and then hired
01:50Brad Holmes, and the two of them work so well together, you know, at least it seems that way.
01:56You know, it's amazing what they've been able to do. It's, you know, incredible. The roster that
02:02they've put out there is it's true. It's really good. And, and, you know, that whenever a team
02:09gets hit by injuries, invariably a portion of the fan base goes strength and conditioning coach
02:14that comes up all the time, too. I don't know that there's any correlation there either. But
02:19no, it depends on the injuries, too. I mean, when guys are getting hurt, break. That's one thing.
