This confuses me. All I am left to think is that you didn't understand my point.
Coming off the short week and how tough the Eagles game was, I think we had no legs going into the Giants game.
Im not sure, but i think he was suggesting that they weren't conditioned properly during training camp for endurance, which compounds your point that they weren't fresh after the eagles game.

That is exactly what i am referring to. The patriots worked late in the practice, while our guys goofed off. Big surprise we had no legs last night.
The giants had the same short week we did, ffs. Were they gassed?

Short games benefit the home team. Every home team has won so far... except for last night.

Yeah but we're a below average team with 17 players listed in the injury report. Once again, the team's sorry ass performance is inexcusable, but it is hard to ignore the injuries.

I've noticed more injuries all over the NFL. Kansas City has been decimated by injuries, so have the Rams. You can make that argument, but I feel that I've seen more injuries throughout the league this year than any other year.
I think people are trying to get something out of nothing by trying to blame injuries on someone. Maybe if the NFL would allowed for larger rosters, you could rotate players more at certain positions and reduce injuries.

I get it, Giants were on a short week too, but a big brawl like that takes a ton out of you. You can't condition yourself for something like that in training camp.
Besides, by all accounts Gruden had the team doing a lot of hitting so that should not have been an issue.
Ultimately we didn't execute and it was turnovers that were the problem more than anything. But you could see we didn't have the get-off at the snap on either side of the ball.

I agree. More injuries and worse injuries this year.
So if the new conditioning regimes created by the new CBA are not responsible, what is?

They don't bang in practice enough.
Blaming the brawl is a stretch. These are professional athletes and they just pretty much pushed each other for a minute.
it's not like each guy went 5 rounds with Jon Jones.
With a perfectly healthy team, we still suck.
Morris and Haslett have got to go.
