Congratulations to JE11

Congratulations to JE11. $500,000 is in the mail and every last cent of that incentive bonus has been well earned and deserved. Was worried to see him hobbling a little after his last catch, because every time we were in 3rd and 4th down, I knew the squirrel will be found by TommyB and he will make the tough catch. That sliding catch on the underthrown pass was sick. Well done to Minitron!

I sure hope that hip is ok for the SB.

Kind of pissed at BB for leaving him in at 45-7.

He was standing on the sidelines at the end jumping around with Gronk. Guessing he'll be OK in 2 weeks.

SEA has a lot more to worry about with Shermans pinched nerve and Thomas' shoulder in a brace than we have with Edelman.

That man was gassed at the end of the game. What a tough S.O.B.

I think he converted five 3rd downs and two 4th downs? CLUTCH

Julian INCREDELMAN! Talk about a special player for this team. Just love that guy!

How long does it take to heal from a dislocated shoulder? Is it as simple as simply putting it back in place or will it need time to heal?

Depends on the extent of the shoulder injury and how stressed/damaged the ligaments were. A minor injury would be "100%" the next week, with the exception of the ligaments being permanently weaker, and more prone to reinjury.

Given how Sherman was holding his arm, I'm inclined to guess it was a separated shoulder rather than nerves/stinger. You could tell by the way he was holding it to his chest/clutching his jersey a bit on the sideline in OT.

Both ate good news for us unless they are very minor. Even if they are very minor injuries, the risk of reinjury to the same area is ridiculously higher. I was worried about Lafell earlier this year for the same reasons.

Easily the MVP of that game and a well deserved bonus (which Kraft rpoabbly would have given him anyhow).

But, how can you not love this kid. And his 23.7 avg yards per punt return wasn't too shabby either), but that laying down catch was epic.

Finally a positive thread!! Thanks OP.

Yes, we are very lucky to have Edleman. Talented and a burning desire to match his coach and qb. Huge fan of Smoothie Tyme...and these two weeks will do him good...

Though I liked and respected Welker a lot (especially when he was playing for chump change early and never once complained publicly about it like the other divas demanding money to put food on the table), it is disrespectful to JE by calling him a poor man's Welker (as some tagged him earlier).

What a tough guy JE is! Hats off to his grit and determination and mult-dimensional role in our O.

And, he also the best QB rating in the post season!!

I agree, we are extremely lucky to have him. Now that he is our leading WR, I hope we win a few SBs.

GO PATS!!

JE = Warrior. Love to see him battle Sherman. Awesome.

He's going to be tough for Sherman to cover. Sherman seems to do best at bigger straight line guys. Kinda like how Branch and Welker used to kill Cromartie.
