Week in and week out, it's the same injury. Either groins or hamstring pulls. Today it couldn't have been more evident. We lose two starting offensive lineman to groin pulls.

Marcus doesn't suit up today. ARE and Moss both aren't 100% either.

What's really going on?

It's damn near impossible to determine why a team is injury-plagued. Is the training staff not doing their job? Is the training staff doing their job but the players are just being slack? Is it just a series of "bad luck"? The only person who can answer the first two questions are Redskins insiders - the staff or players. We're not going to see that ourselves, it's all taking place during the week in the gym and in practice.

Sometimes things just don't go your way no matter what you do.
