I think this thread needs a poll.

...and a scoreboard.

You know... my take on the whole new S&C coach is no big deal. Sure it's a great change to see if really was their fault, but these are professional athletes here in the most professional league with the most qualified staff out there to watch over them. Overall it's all on the players body. Can he handle falls and hits? Ryan Mathews obviously cannot handle it. Players land on their shoulders all the time, let alone running backs. The high ankle sprain in 2010 I agree was a fluke, but after seeing two broken clavicles the man clearly isn't the option. Mathews doesn't know how to take a hit and fall correctly. This is something LT did adequately well and we were overly spoiled about it.

So you want him to fall down while hes being tackled by 260 pound men and land himself so where he doesn't hit his shoulders?

Or if he watched movies on a tablet at the team hotel, instead of speeding from his home to not be late for curfew...
