Default Galloway inactive - one week thing or trend?

Galloway's lack of gelling (to put it kindly) is well-documented -- and the O certainly didn't seem to miss him today -- but my question is:

If Moss/Welker/Edelman are healthy, is Galloway a continued scratch in favor of Aiken and his special teams contributions, or is this merely a shot across Galloway's bow?

My guess is that Belichick has "seen enough" (as Lombardi relates BB/Parcells are wont to say) and will just have Galloway around as injury insurance.

Or hopefully they re-invent his role on the offense and stop miscasting him as a Gaffney-like possession-type guy ...

One week..... He's gone! They chose the wrong guy, should have been Lewis, but time to move on.

We will know very soon If he is not released, then he still has a chance. If BB has had enough, then he will not make another appearance in the locker room.

I cant see the Pats getting rid of Galloway, although he isnt even close to what anyone thought he would be, he needs to be kept on the roster until Welker's health is 100%. We arent exactly deep at the WR position

He reminds me so much of Doug Gabriel...but I think they keep him around, they do need depth.

Galloway is better than Sam Aiken.

Would they just cut him, or at least try to find a trade? -at least for a LB prospect or to address one of our teams biggest needs: punter.
