You’ve heard it said many times that the NFL season is a grind. You’ve heard the NFL season described as a marathon. And while both are true, coaches will tell you that the NFL season is a process. They seek to develop chemistry in their roster. They will continually self-scout while refining technique, the goal of which is to get the players to play their best football in December and January. Without effective processes, teams will fail to reach their goals.
But that’s not as simple as it sounds. Bodies take beatings throughout the season. A healthy roster doesn’t mean that everyone is 100%.
