Default Gronk likely out for rest of playoffs.

Can this offense win the Super Bowl without him? I am confident they can beat the Ravens as is but what about the 49ers? This f'ing sucks

Almost beat them sans-Gronk last time around, so it's certainly possible. But as with the last postseason, an offense without its biggest weapon is a bit less dangerous and it certainly hurts the Patriots chances in these playoffs. Just gotta hope this emerging run game and the Welker-Hernandez combo is enough.

Either way, very sad to see Gronk out for the second straight year (well, last year he was severely limited), I htink they'd have won the SB last season with a healthy Gronkowski and who knows where things wind up this season.

it sucks losing Gronk, but I feel alot more confident this year that we can adapt and win than last year...right now we are 5-1 without him, and still put up 30+ points against the niners..

Hopefully we can get Woodhead back and Vereen can be that impact player that he was today

These TEs need a big receiver to take some of the loads. They hits and tough catches they make takes a toll on them. If we have invested in them, we need to find a way to protect them from themselves. Sometimes we design plays that make them do unnecessary tough catches.

Not worried about the Ravens. Worried about the 49ers if we face them in the big game. He would have definitely been the difference maker last game. They neutralized our O pretty good without him.
