Big game coming up Sunday. I think the Colts and the Pats are about even in ability so we need to play well. As always , its the crunch time D we will be worrying about. Should be a good game to watch with lots of O from both sides.

I'm think SF and H will be tough games so this Colts game could be the difference between 11-5 or 10-6 season. Could be significant at the end.

Anyway , I see the Pats winning 27-24.

Go Pats

should be an entertaining game
I'm a little concerned about some guys that will be missing, namely Mankins and Hernandez.
Welker will play with a sprained ankle

they cut Branch last night, that seems odd to me.

they need a win here, short week next week with a division game coming up Thursday night against the Jets

:pats2::pats::pats:

I don't get the Branch deal right now.

Branch is hurt so they dumped him and activated Salas. I guess they needed someone who can play. Its really dog eat dog now. You get hurt , you get dumped , clear waivers and maybe they bring you back. Tough to be an older player these days.

Big names missing as you mention. Still boils down to Pass D IMO though. I hope Brady doesn't spend the game on his back do to Mankins on the sideline. With Hernandez out , Branch replaced by a new guy , could mean Welcher gets extra attention. I hope his ankle holds up. I think they have been doubling Gronk lately so should be interesting to see where the ball gets thrown.

being old in any business is just tough, some tougher than others, always got the young'ns chewin on you ankles

As much as I like Hernandez, i don't think it really matters if he's in the game or not. Feels like the offense runs much more fluently when they go through/feature Welker.

Like you said, it all boils down to the D and I have no confidence in our secondary so hopefully we can just out-shoot them...

Nice to have him though. If Gronk gets hurt or sometimes they'll double Gronk but not Hernandez. Just nice to have a big gun like that available to use or not as the situation dictates. Welcher is one of the best ever but if they know its always going to him then they cover him and then we got nothin. Anyway , I'll take all the players healthy and ready to go whenever possible. Its like being able to cast a long way. Mostly you don't need to but its nice to be able to when the situation calls for it.

completely agree

Colts never showed.

What an awesome sports day.Gordon basically gave Nascar the bird by winning and the Pats destroyed Luck and I WON MONEY ON BOTH!!!

Gordon is still a ..........

Glad to see the good guys win big
I hope Jones is OK

and Mike, it's Welker not Welcher

I thought it was Wes Weckler. I still like Hernandez more, not that I don't appreciate Gronk, but without him it doesn't seem to matter, just like seeing the 2 headed monster. .Would luv to see them put up 59 on the J E T S. Luv seeing my neighbor miserable.

Reported gronk broke his forearm, pornlefs beware

yup, out 4-6 weeks. He apparently broke it on the Pats final extra point attempt. Great move, Bill you arrogant #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&. It's a good thing we have Hernandez.

59 points is ridiculous though. And the D looked solid....

Wow! What a blow out! Could barely keep up with all the scoring.

Slip, Its not my fault if Welcher spells his name wrong. :)
