    Good question that I'll take a guess on.
    Manning has played in 203 NFL games.
    Vince Young Has played in 43 NFL games.

    My guess is hundreds of more times than Young.

    Differs by year Got, that's what I meant. Do you honestly think we can beat these teams with either QB we have?

    This has to be related to flexibility and stretching since it's happening so much with no contact or non-contact injuries.

    Alot of injuries can be reduced/eliminated by increasing flexibility and changing/improving his diet.

    honestly, i would bet it was pretty equal. manning falls down at even the hint of a sack. he throws off of his back foot when someone is wide open. he does a great job of avoiding hits, it's actually pretty impressive.

    To be fair to Vince, The Houston game in 2007 is the only game I think he's missed due to injury. :0

    It's just fluke, he's not injury prone. It happens.

    No. He would sometimes limp off as we all held our breath and then be back in the next series running again.

    Right, but fluke's can be prevented be increased flexibility/diet. Especially things like hamstring/quads/hip flexors/etc.

    I agree with some of the other posters here. Vince never had the quad/hamstring problems in Texas that we have seen in Tenn.

    I also agree that the trainers need to work on his stretching and conditioning. He had this problem his second year which is why I think he stopped running as much and hurt his production.

    Hopefully this won't be a nagging injury this year as well.

    He does seem to hurt his hamstring quite a bit usually after a run but he's never really missed much time. I would say no he's not injury prone but this isn't a good trend because without his ability to run it hurts his game a whole bunch.
