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.
