I'd give Gates a better chance of playing than Rivers:

But I thought the Wednesday report already listed him as questionable. Is there another report that comes out later in the week?
Is there anything to police all this? Belichick plays around with the designations all the time. Is there anything that keeps a coach from listing a guy however he wants?
Probably just a small amount of drop backs and mild throwing off the knees. Not just as a Patriots' fan but I really think Rivers should sit; Volek may not be a perfect option but he's a strong backup QB and will likely be at least as effective as a hobbled Rivers. The wrong hit to Rivers' weakened knee could put next year in doubt too.The link also said that Rivers practiced today.
The link also said that Rivers practiced today. Being a Charger fan, I'd say I'm pretty worried if he doesn't play. I actually think he's more important to the team than LT. I think we're pretty deep at RB. At least Volek got some game experience last week and looked well doing it.

Playing with a partially torn knee ligament sounds like a career ended early to me.
Well said.Who cares who plays or doesn't? Bring it.
:rocker: :agree:Who cares who plays or doesn't? Bring it. The Patriots will be prepared to play the game to the best of their ability. If they execute their game plan and make no mistakes, they win. If they don't play well and make mistakes they lose. Pretty simple. Doesn't matter who plays.

Being used to the Patriots Way, I find it very weird to read the general manager's comments on players being "day to day" and how the decision to play or sit for a game is made.
