Turner still not practicing, Jackson might be

Why are we surprised by the injury bug? It’s 2018. Don’t know what it is about even years, but on offense we are now without 4 of the original starting 5 OL and one of our FA backup G/T, our starting pro-Bowl TE and 2 of the 3 WRs who looked the best in preseason. On special teams we are missing our best kick/punt returner. On defense our starting CB who replaced another FA CB and one of our starting Ss. Oh and we're missing a suspended LB.

Everyone groaned at the early bye week but the NFL knew...

Pretty much this. This team has been getting hammered by the injury bug every other season seemingly forever. It's played a huge factor in our inability to ever put together back to back winning seasons.

I feel we should fire all medical staff and get new ones lol, I can't help but feel like we're one of the worst teams in the league every year for injuries.    Madden should give our whole team 20 injury rating.    I have no numbers to back up these claims.

Yep, it will be nice, but all those injuries and we are only 2 games in. It’s like a copy of 2016 where the OL was just injury after injury. Thank god we drafted Moton otherwise we’d be completely fuged on the outside. 3 of our starters were backups last year and 1 was sitting on the couch. The other 1 is a shell of his former self. How we only gave up 2 sacks (one was a CB blitz) against Beasley, McKinley and Jarrett is amazing. 

We don't have the privilege of other teams like NE or the eagles to where our own division is a cake walk either.
