I think Haley kind of set this question up to be asked by repeating the weight loss and conditioning stuff so much. The slightest rough patch (one preseason game...lol) and people look at it. If the conditioning is strong and the weight room work is there, I would rather have that power and stamina over 5-10 extra pounds. If a lineman is benching 315 for a bunch of reps and squatting like a mad-man he will be able to move guys out of his way regardless. I don't think the weight loss is a problem. With all the camp work they can all eat like crazy now anyway to keep up the power. If anything, my belief is that Haley avoided talking about many other things by talking about losing pounds and conditioning.
