With that in mind, if it isn't a serious break and just a hairline Gronk could be back in 2-3 weeks. It might depend if it's the Radius or Ulna which is broke too, there's 2 bones in your forearm.

If its a broken forearm he's done for the year. We have only bad luck with injuries. A great win, but I would have preferred a loss to possibly losing Gronk for the year and Chandler Jones for god knows how many games. This really ******* sucks if true. I blame myself. Buy my first Tom Brady jersey prior to the 2008 season, Brady misses the season, buy a Mayo jersey after his rookie season, he hurts his knee and missed 8 games. Guess who bought a Gronk jersey while up in Boston early October ?

Likely bad news for the #Patriots: Team fears Rob Gronkowski has broken his forearm, I'm told. Tests to confirm ongoing.

I don't trust PFT all that much.

If it is hairline, I wouldn't be surprised if he was playing Thursday. I have seen players not miss a game with a broken bone if hairline.

forearm breaks, depending on the severity, they put one of those light weight casts on it, wrap it and play him...what's the big deal...oh wait...it's Suzy-Wets-The-Diaper time here again....OK...go ahead and have a big cry...get it out of your systems...Thursday will be here quick and we wouldn't want any leftover tear puddles getting any players wet so they get the flu...or worse...

Coach went overboard during the post-game, praising Gronk:

“He does a great job for us. Blocking, receiving, third down, red area, he’s a good player.”
