Gronk carted off...

Having torn up my knee over 25 years ago on a similar impact, I would have to say that it is doubtful that we will see Gronk again this season.... It hurt watching that. And there were some open microphones close by to pick up the colorful language.

Their defense is horrendous. This team is so inconsistent. How they ever beat Bronko's is beyond me. Gusting winds I guess. No Gronk will make them a long shot in any playoff aspiration in my opinion. Go Bruins

man I have to keep putting them down as they always make me eat my words but I will say that was a gift as I did not see any interference, terrible call in our favor. Still think without Gronk they will have a tough go in playoffs.

I'm going to roll out what everyone (including some Pats fans) told Pats fans when they lost on questionable calls this year: "Don't leave it in the hands of the refs." Or, "you should have played better the rest of the game." Etc, etc.

It WAS a weak PI though...

We'll take the win. We stunk the place out but bottom line is a W.

I'll say it again, officiating is horrible now with too many subjective calls allowing the refs to affect the outcome of games. It may be the way the rules are written now putting the refs into too many judgment calls but overall its ruining the game.

Shame about Gronk. I hope he can recover from another major injury. Unfortunately these types of injuries add up and someday he won't come back.

That pass int made up for Carolina a little bit

2:20 left in game, down 2 scores, pats got em right where they want em

Credit Gostkoski for a great onside kick and the gift Arrington had laid right under him. WOW is right

Tough to get a win in the nfl, and the pats make it tough on themselves

I hope GRONK is ok

PI call was marginal at best but more importantly, it happened before he was in the end zone, getting his arms tugged (interfered with) at about the 5 yard line. Would have made no difference as TB would have still gotten them in for the win. Wonder how many left the game when it was 26-14?

The game end result would have been different if the those people did not leave.

I think at the point, you look for a TE in the draft, or as an off-season free agent. He's a great talent, but I think I predicted months ago that he'll never play a complete season. He's getting hurt regularly now when he's still young. Some guys are never the same after ACL surgery, if that's what it is.
