As an athlete yourself, do you feel that the Colts have suffered an unusual amount of soft tissue and muscle injuries over the years ??? I have always wondered about their strength-and-conditioning programs. At times, I’ve gotten the impression that we’ve been deficient in that area.

Although I'm a lifetime long-distance runner and a recent tower-runner, I'm not an expert on sports injuries ...... I just selfishly deal with my own situations, and am not overly concerned with others' situations, save for hoping that my favorite sports teams don't sustain a lot of major ones to their key players (such as Bert Jones, Peyton Manning, and more recently Daniel Jones.)
I am particularly biased toward the slender-and-athletic types of athletes (wide receivers and defensive backs) over the larger, bulky types of athletes (offensive and defensive linemen.) That's why I admired Jimmy Johnson's coaching philosophy when he would often turn defensive backs into linebackers, and linebackers into defensive linemen ...... I love the Nebraska Cornhuskers and I hate Miami-Florida, but I believe that he was one of the greatest head coaches ever in both college and pro football.
