I thought we had this posted here already.

The Cowboys had the third most games lost to injury in the NFL, according to data compiled by Rick Gosselin. But the two most hurt teams -- Washington and Green Bay -- made the playoffs.

This chart lists the games lost by starters due to injury during the 2012 NFL season. It lists the team, the number of games lost (Games), players placed on injured reserve (IR), the number of 16-game starters (16g) plus the key injury and his games lost:

I got to disagree with "Key injury" player being Bishop.

I think the injuries to Bulaga, Benson, Stark and Perry were worse for the Packers.

Losing Bulaga meant they needed help at both OTs in pass protection, until Newhouse stepped up there some in the end. Though Barclay did step up and look great in the running game, and I still wonder if he could win the starting RG job. Of course it seems like the Packers rated Lang ahead of Newhouse and all the focus is around RT including some of the coaches comments. But I think Barclay prefect fit is RG. But if he's the best RT the Packers have then he's starting there and they'll give him some help in pass protection.

Benson and Stark because I think they had potential to make the running game a threat which the others didn't.

Perry because he was a much better player than Walden other than in coverage. And some think the Packers might use him as a spy against the 49ers because he has the speed to keep up with very fast guys.

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.
