Bill Barnwell at grantland.com wrote a column commenting on the free agent signings this weekend. In it, he provides a quote that is complimentary to the Vikings training staff that one can't help but also see as an indictment of the Packer training staff.

The quote is the following:

"The bumps and bruises that have bothered Jennings over the past couple of seasons are also less likely to reoccur in Minnesota, as the Vikings have one of the best training staffs in all of football."

The Jennings portion is about 2/3rds of the way down.

magical vitamins and savs might be the difference.

Never knew in the world of Pro Sports today especially the NFL, a team could be so far ahead of another in technology and application.
Take into account that 1 team has dominated another and the well-trained team
is and always has-been labeled as losers.

They just po folk in Wisconsin that don't know nuttin about nuttin except titles ...

I didn't know those required surgery.
Clever use of the word reoccur. The groin tear isn't likely to reoccur unless the surgey was't done correctly.

IIRC, A Raider safety rolled over Jennings while he has being tackled and twisted his knee. If the Vikings training staff can keep that from reoccurring, then yeah, they are really good.

I dunno, maybe the Packers staff errs more on the side of caution regarding sitting injured players than other teams?

Only three teams have won Superbowls in the last three years. It is more than luck that the Packers were one of them. Coaching, medical, and traning staff all need to be held accountable.
Its obvious its the size cleat they are wearing and the guy taping ankles before games ... the dude's got'em too tight.
They set the foot, other parts/joints give ... knee, groin, hammy ... Smiler
