Last year, Mike McCarthy went about making some major revisions to his offseason program when it came to the health and wellness of his football team. From hiring nutrition expert Adam Korzun to implementing very different practice schedules, which lead to a 42 percent decrease in missed training camp practices, McCarthy was on a mission to try to reverse the havoc injuries had played with his team over the last few years.
Well, taking a look at FootballOutsiders' annual Adjusted Games Lost for each team during the 2014 season, a formula they came up with to attempt to quantify how teams are affected by injuries, it would sure appear that McCarthy is on to something.
