I personally have always felt it was bad luck. Peak physical conditioning can't prevent broken bones and ligament tears.

Mixed with bad coaching. It always helps when your center isn't being taken out of action for the season on the first offensive series of the year by one of his own teammates. I noticed a serious decline in OL injuries in general after Munchak's arrival and I don't think it was a coincidence.
Re: so much for blaming our conditioning coach
I still say that a REAL strength and conditioning coach could dream up a drill that would prevent the star running back from hyperextending his knee right before the playoffs. Maybe have the backs stand in the middle of the field as a truck with a lift gate that's at knee level backs into them and chops them down time after time so the knee gets used to hyperextension? I dunno.
