Made sense not playing against Indy. Thought he'd play this week cause the Jets run the ball but instead he stood on the sidelines all game with the warmup cloak wrapped tightly around his chilled CA frame. The LB kids are playing well. I sat behind the Pats D bench Sunday and watched team leader Mayo go over to all the DBs and congratulate and rally them early in the game. Mayo has reached the apex of leadership despite being a 2nd year player. The DBs love the guy.
Suspected all of this... just nice to have him on our side, particularly as we have so many young un's... remember Tom Curran labeled these guys "bridge players"...
Are they going to limit him for the 6 games he said he had left??
I've been looking for him each game too but I agree, Junior's real value is his leadership and his approach to the game and that he totally buys into BB's approach so he's the perfect tudor for Mayo.
Perhaps they are holding him out now to have him fresh in the playoffs, I don't know. I'm thinking all hands on deck next week though so maybe we'll see him then.
