I fully understand the notion of continuing routines.  But with the longest season ever—and the wear & tear on the players (especially with this unprecedented grind through 4 playoff games in succession)—do you think there is some kind of modification to allow the players’ bodies to heal?

And, if so, how do you think one strikes the balancing act between that and maintaining a top level of conditioning?

Finally, if there might be less time devoted to the physical aspects of practice, does that mean perhaps more time devoted to film study?  

Please excuse my ignorance here because I never played organized football.

Thanks.
