Originally posted by zonkers:I think circa Harbaugh, a lot of players were taking extra vitamins (not saying Harbaugh started it), but the style of play and playoffs battles really wore them down fast. Post-Harbaugh, seems like they started leaning towards well-conditioned players (that might be lacking a bit of extra power).
As for consistency, maybe it's just that all the coaches had very aggressive styles of play.
Unless . . . the style is no different than anywhere else and it was the S&C staffs that didn't properly prepare the players.
Unless . . . the S&C staff only implements the blueprint from the GM.
Unless . . . the GM only created the blueprint with input from analytics (Paraag! )
Unless . . . Paraag is only using analytics to help Jed save money.
LMAO...this is terrific!
