Inordinate = Unusually or disproportionally large. Excessive. We haveclearly not had an "inordinate amount of injuries" no matter how you attempt to spin it.
This stat isn't "#of injuries". It takes into consideration value of players. We have not faced an "inordinate amount".
McKinley Jackson, Kris Jenkins, BJ Hill, and Sheldon Rankins never all missed the same games.
Jackson: Missed weeks 1-4
Jenkins: Missed weeks 1-2
BJ Hill: Missed weeks 3-4
Rankins: Missed 3-5 & 12-15
For the 1st two weeks, we had our starting DTs. Week 3-4, we're missing 3 of our top 4, and week 5, we missed 1 of our top 4.
