So it’s official. Rob Gronkowski is yet again done for
another season. Reports are he tore his ACL and if you never thought Gronkowski
was injury prone, you can now label him as so. I wish he pulled his groin so I could call him
GROINkowski…okay that’s not funny. Now my question is was this intentional?
Look here.
It's hard to believe that players intentionally try to injure other players, but Ward looked like he went straight for the knee though which makes you wonder. He clearly had room to run a bit further and tackle him by the waste, but instead he chose to go straight for the bare knee. Despite what the truth is, Gronk is now out for the year. Hooman, Develin, and Mulligan will have to carry the load for the TE's. Mulligan can play some ball, and I wouldn't be surprised if he has at least 5 touchdowns with the last 3 games coming up. With Collie back, and Dobson coming back, we'll hopefully get some kind of production going.
Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to watch all of the Patriots game. I was at a family birthday party for my cousin's son, and I was sharing my Sunday Ticket with my cousins so it was back and fourth. Jason Campbell was looking good from what I saw, I also noticed Brady threw 50+ times. Edelman had a few drops this game that could've been bombs.
The Questionable Call:
Watch the tiny gif here in the article
So after watching it closely I don't think it's a pass interference but that's only because I watched the gif about 20 times. I can totally see how it may have looked like a pass interference because for a split second it looked like McFadden was grabbing Boyce's jersey which any ref will call a pass interference if there's a hand that looks like it's pulling a shoulder. I think that call will go no matter what game or stadium you're in because that's just how blind some refs are. Forget the team, forget the players, it just happens. These calls happen, and will continue to happen. It's hypocritical of me to like the calls when they're in favor of my team, and hate them when they're against it but this was questionable at best.
We'll take the win, but it's gonna be a tough couple of games coming up. I don't like playing the Dolphins because they have the potential to to beat us. The same thing goes with the Ravens and Bills. We need to keep playing hard. I can't give up on my team because Gronk is out. No fan can. Keep faith people. If those guys are busting their ass on the field every week and not giving up then the fans should be right there with them cheering them on til the last second.
