Why are the Giants killed by injuries every year?
Here's a Daily News article that gives an overview of the Giants injury situation in Fassel's final year and in Coughlin's reign. Clearly Coughlin hasn't eliminated injuries like he said he would but the bigger question is what can be done? One doctor in the article says the Giants need a better field and more yoga / pilates.
The Giants say there's nothing more they can do; they've studied it from every angle but it's just plain bad luck. Every year.
I would like to see a comparison. They tell us how many Giants go on IR, but let's compare that to other teams or to the league average.

Have you been in a cave for a month? He is in fact retiring and they've covered every angle of it on every show (countdown, match-up, live, etc). There should be about 100 aticles on it on google. He's no Tiki, but I think BJ will do a very good job.
