PrintThere is an interesting article on Pro Football Weekly:

I am sick of seasons filled with injury being the downfall of this franchise.
Do the Seahawks experience a greater number of "talent killing" injuries than the rest of the league?
If so, why? Poor conditioning, perhaps?
And then, why do we still suffer? Is there no depth?
Is there any statistical analysis out there that compares injury impact on season success? Any info would be greatly appreciated.

At first I was like wtf
Then I realized your graph is wrong.
If life gives you lemons, keep the receipt
Shoulda asked this differently
Of course injury has an impact on the season, BUT, how do we rate vs. other teams in the category of critical injuries per season?
Example: we lose 7 starters for a total of say, 65 games in a season, vs some other team losing 9 starters for 80 games.
According to FO
Seattle has a three year rank of 29.4 games lost per season, 10th. This year is an exception.
