I think the New CBA and pratice restrictions....

Really hamstrung the NFL, careers may now last longer or not, the lack of full pad practices may allow for faster recovery from injury, but lack of that type of practice will ultimatly cause more injuries (like hammies).

The seasons will be filled more with careless mistakes all over the field and the truly dedicated players will thrive.. Just my opinion. I think the players hurt themselves with these restrictions.

Union contract negotiations are about two basic things;

1-Management and labor trying to get more financial gain.
2-Managment trying to get labor to do more for less, while labor
is trying to do less for more.

The players got what they wanted and it looks like you are right. Alot of nagging little injuries seems to be happenig every game to multiple players.

Pretty soon its gonna be the players getting paid tons of money for playing flag football. Go tell Jack tatum or Lawrence Taylor that they cant plow someone for going across the middle.

We are probably getting ,more issues because guys are just not in shape because of lockout, i doubt the new practice setup will cause any more hamstring issues during a regular season. These guys just did not stay in shape like they said they were doing in the off seasson and with a shorter camp they are not at the normal level.
