Mcdaniels gave them the two minute warning by not running.. Fucking total idiot who also hot Gronk injured.

 

[LJ11]

I think the rule changes may cause more leg injuries. Players aren't looking to light players up in the same way. Going low and at the ball. Leg shots instead of headshots. Gronk is tough to tackle high as well.

You have a point, but to be fair, if you're going high you're not tackling Gronk unless you knock him the fuck out, always have to go low or he's bouncing off of you.

 

[Megalosaro]

I am legit sad, sucks we lost our best offensive player . Fuk man, our SB may be over :'(

Yup. Such a sad day.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Gronk

 

[PBY]

This NFL season has made me totally lose faith in the future of this sport. Trash year.

 

[XenogearsX]

Plenty of players looks ok and walk ok with acl injuries. Putting pressure on the leg doesn't really mean much unfortunately.

Yea Lewis walked off with a limp and he's done and not nearly as beastly as gronk.

 

[VeryGooster]

It's a Christmas miracle.

DT grew his hands back.

Way to leave out the other religious denominations!

This cracked me up good.

 

[KaYotiX]

Damn, poor Gronk.

Dislike the Pats but gronk seems like a cool guy

 

[LiK]

might not be the perfect season but we'll still win SB

 

[GashPrex]

looked like he dislocated his knee and they had to put it back in place

 

[TheFatOne]

lol does this game even matter anymore

pats season just ended 2 plays ago

Pretty much how I feel right now.

 

[friskykillface]

this is all on Bill x Josh, they really wanted the "lets pass instead of run, they won't expect it"

so dumb

 

[squicken]

There is no way the patriots are doing anything if Gronk is out for the year. Really need that to be a minor injury

 

[Kiryu]

 

[Trey]

So instead of milking the clock, they went to the pass every down offense. It's a bold move lets see if it pays off.

They went for first downs.

 

[Hunter S.]

Damn, poor Gronk.

Dislike the Pats but gronk seems like a cool guy

This.

 

[Milchjon]

And now we lose.

Terrible night all around.

 

[Cornbread78]

The first image I see after turning on the TV is Gronk on a cart...

Season over, the death toll is too high, fuck everything.

 

[Griss]

football is a bad sport

fuck it

People blow out their knees in almost all contact sports. Soccer, rugby. Dude gets paid millions to run those risks and will recover just fine and will walk just fine after receiving the best medical treatment money can buy on this earth.

Brain injury is a different kettle of fish, but I don't give a shit about someone tearing their MCL or whatnot.

 

[JABEE]

You have a point, but to be fair, if you're going high you're not tackling Gronk unless you knock him the fuck out, always have to go low or he's bouncing off of you.

Yeah. Players are going to just bounce off Gronk if they try to go high on him.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Welp if Pats lose who's gonna make thread next week?

 

[boiled goose]

This NFL season has made me totally lose faith in the future of this sport. Trash year.

The amount of injuries this year is insane. The sport can't continue like this... it's like a fucking gladiator arena.

 

[XenogearsX]

Ughhhhhh the pain

 

[greatestjediever]

Plenty of players looks ok and walk ok with acl injuries. Putting pressure on the leg doesn't really mean much unfortunately.

Yeah ACL/MCL tears you can still walk. Some people never get it repaired after tears and can walk just fine. But it will prevent certain movements.

 

[brentech]

Yea kinda looked like he was walking and putting pressure on his knee. Dude is a beast and won't be out long.

While there is always a chance, someone always comes in here and says this about a knee injury. People can walk on torn ACLs or MCLs...hell, some guys have finished games with them.
Means absolutely nothing that he can put weight on it. Wait for actual news.

 

[VeryGooster]

How much stock does one put into "ProFootballDoc ?"

 

[Allforce]

Don't have a horse in this race but can't help but think that's a totally avoidable injury if you just coach smarter. 1st and 10, 2:50 left, defense has 1 TO. Run the ball! Worst case scenario is you wind down to the 2 minute warning and punt to a shaky offense.

 

[LiK]

Welp if Pats lose who's gonna make thread next week?

a Panthers fan

 

[Pepiope]

Chip and Bradford gonna put that work in AT Foxborough.

 

[greepoman]

The announcers day knee but it's his left arm that they put in a cast

That's the apparatus he wears every game since he hurt his forearm?

 

[Starphoenix]

Stop. Feeding. Thomas!!!!!!!

 

[WesternHeretic]

It's a Christmas miracle.

DT grew his hands back.

As you were saying?

 

[unknownstranger]

LolThomas

 

[XenogearsX]

Even if pats win which they won't it's still going to feel like a loss. Don't even care about the outcome of this game anymore

 

[TheFatOne]

might not be the perfect season but we'll still win SB

If you mean the Pats then I have to disagree with you on this one. Can't win without Gronk. He's too critical to the success of the offense. If the defense was elite I would say they have a real chance. The defense is solid, but not great. No chance without Gronk. They would have to get some real luck in the playoffs.

 

[The Albatross]

Yep the finish of this game is irrelevant.
Flashback to Deion Sanders saying that the Pats are unstoppable unless he gets hurt... To him.

 

[darkside31337]

Is DT drunk?

 

[Salaadin]

How much stock does one put into "ProFootballDoc ?"

Isn't that the guy who thought Roethlisberger had a lisfranc 7 days before he torched Cleveland?

 

[ActStriker]

Welp if Pats lose who's gonna make thread next week?

I'm not dead.

 

[Kiryu]

What a fucking throw.

Wow.

 

[crazyprac]

Fuck this night. Fuck everything.

 

[AbortedWalrusFetus]

Damn Brock is crushing.

 

[Griss]

It's happening!!! Go Broncos!

Will Manning ever get back in this team?!

 

[FTF]

Un fucking believable
