We didn't lead the league for 4 years in a row. It was 3.

It wasn't just that the Giants led the league 3 years in a row

It was that there was a huge gaping gulf of difference between the Giants and the 31st team those years in terms of injuries.

Giants were also 22nd or worse something like 5-6 straight years.

But 4

sounds better than 3.

It was brutal both ways but

This has been posted multiple times on here and it just simply isn't true. It is nice, however, to see the team healthy again and, hopefully, McAdoo's new approach was the reason why.

The change

is no coincidence, whether it was 3 years or 4.
Less injuries is good.

Precisely.

Chicago last year is hard to believe.

As far out there as the Giants were the last 3 years, the Bears were far WORSE last year. I can't imagine how a team could be that injured.

we are assembling a younger roster

i think that has a role to play in our improved health.
