Training Camp Reports

From another Tandler report:

And, every year around this time I tell them that most NFL teams suffer from injuries this time of year. Here is a quick look through the last 48 hours of camp injuries reported in our corporate cousins at Pro Football Talk:

Vikings TE John Carlson suffered a sprained MCL.
Chargers RB Ryan Mathews injured in a car accident.
Colts OL, LB suffer torn ACL’s.
Jaguars G William Rackley is on crutches with a sprained ankle.
Lions RB Javid Best is still suffering from a concussion that ended his 2011 season early.
Pro Bowl Eagles DE Jason Babin will miss 2-3 weeks with a strained calf.
Cardinals starting QB Kevin Kolb has a thigh bruise.
Giants CB Terrel Thomas has re-injured the same knee that cost him all of last season.
Ravens tight end Dennis Pitta broke his hand in practice.
Eagles WR Ron Johnson suffered a “gruesome” leg injury.
Broncos RB Knowshon Moreno is still limited by last year’s torn ACL.
The Jets were suffering so many muscle pulls that Rex Ryan pushed back practice time to allow for more stretching.
Packers WR Greg Jennings is out of practice with an elbow injury.
Chiefs S Kyle McCarthy was carted off the field with a knee injury.
Broncos S Quinton Carter is out of practice with a hamstring injury.

Again, those are just the more significant injuries reported in PFT since Monday morning. It’s hard to look at that list and say that the Redskins are significantly worse off than the rest of the NFL.
 
Our OL is a known area of concern and so it's likely that injuries there will be perceived as more threatening to team performance. I haven't checked into the impressions of other teams fans and media about their respective injury statuses so I'm just offering what I think is a possible explanation for Redskins fans reactions.
