Cliff Bars are Working, Packers Healthy

[pbmax]

In the first year of his dive into sports science to increase the health of his team (2014), McCarthy's team was the third healthiest in the League by Football Outsiders metrics. In 2015 they fell to ninth, which is still their second healthiest year of this decade.

Two players made a dramatic impact on that number: Nelson and Barrington.

It’s a remarkable two-year switch considering where they were in 2012, when then they led the league in most adjusted games lost (108.2), according to Football Outsiders. In 2013, they ranked ahead of only two teams (with 104.1). They ranked 16th in 2011, 30th in 2010, 12th in 2009 and 23rd in 2008.

The other major adjusted games lost to injury last season were by tackle Bryan Bulaga (4.44), cornerback Sam Shields (3.07), safety Morgan Burnett (2.46), center Corey Linsley (2.14) and receiver Davante Adams (1.99).

In my own life, Clif bars have been powerless against non-contact ligament and tendon ruptures.

Try strapping them to you knees with duct tape for extra support.

No, no, no,no. The most dramatic therapeutic effects are seen when they are used as a suppository.
