Two of the top 3 healthiest teams last season went to the Super Bowl. The NFL is a game of attrition. We can spend all our time discussing this coach and that player but it generally plays out that the healthiest teams are the successful ones. Incidentally, the Patriots, Rams, and Seahawks were the top three healthiest teams last year.

And, incidentally, they all had far superior coaching than we did.

So is there a correlation between good coaching and health?

Not insinuating that there is/was.
Simply saying that the aforementioned teams had SUPERIOR coaching to ours.
And, that was the bigger reason for them making it to where they did.
The 49's had about the same amount of injuries as the Bucs. Yet they went 12-5.
If you don't like Bowles then you see "injuries" as an excuse that lets him off the hook so you say "injuries don't matter" because ... Barton is as good as Wirfs at LT and Heck is just like Goedeke.
injuries were substantial last season. That doesn't mean Bowles is good.
injuries were substantial last season. They had a significant impact on the Bucs because the Bucs were not flush with talent.
just look at the bottom of the roster and special teams.
This season the Bucs are going to get killed because no Mike Evans
But last year Mike Evans missing games didn't matter.
make it make sense.
you can't. Because it's dishonest. See comment about correlation with take on Bowles
The 49's had about the same amount of injuries as the Bucs. Yet they went 12-5.
Exactly.
Better coaching.
The 49's had about the same amount of injuries as the Bucs. Yet they went 12-5.
And lost to the lowly Buccaneers…

Sometimes in very shallow casual football circles you will hear “Next man up”. It’s the dumbest thought process ever. Injuries matter. Period. With a healthy team, would we have won 5 more games last season?? Absolutely.

Yet, finished with significantly more wins and a trip to the postseason playing in arguably the best division in the NFL.
It’s almost as if they have way better coaching.
It’s weird…

With a healthy team, how many more games would the Panthers won?
The entire league had injuries. If we’re being honest, it’s a bitch-baby excuse.
And for the record, the Raiders had the least amount of games missed from injury. They went 3-14 and fired their dinosaur HC.

They didn’t need excuses? Odd.

Bullshit. Injuries, in a game that mostly requires 22 different players with 22 different skill sets, they will always be the biggest indicator of success.
