Knee Injury Still Nagging Gronkowski

So belichick chose health over HFA. Yet, our two most important players get injuries going into the playoffs. Plus we don't get HFA. I think its safe to say that plan backfired royally.

A playoff game hasn't been played and you're at this conclusion.

Stupidity at patsfans.com........at it's finest.
 
I love Bill Belichick. I would never ever want another coach. He has earned enough good will that we could go 5-11 three straight seasons and I wouldn't want anyone else.

But man he F.UCKED UP the management for the end of this season. Whatever he was trying to do he failed miserably.

Considering a playoff game hasn't been played.........how exactly do you arrive at this?

Are you just trying to look like a moron in more than one thread?

Our top 2 star players became injured....that was supposedly the one thing that he was planning against. What is the big debate? Of course some fans are going to question it.

If you're claiming that it may turn out alright in the end should they move forward in the postseason, you're right, but that would be chalked up much more to the luck of the injuries not being serious, not Bill Belichick's plan.

At any rate, no one here should be arguing against the greatest coach of all-time, so in that regard you're spot on. There are times however, when it's okay to question his decisions, although we really should keep that to a minimum with the proven track record that he has.

For those complaining about Gronk playing vs. Miami, where is the evidence that his injury was aggravated by playing vs. Miami?

It seems more likely that his injury was aggravated sometime last week or this week, in practice.

So... are you going to complain about him practicing?
:rolleyes:
 
thanks bill

should of rested everybody against the fish you dink.

It has nothing to do with rather or not we win the playoff game. Learn how to read and comprehend before you start talking about stupidity. His plan to not go after HFA aggressively and put health first failed.

Considering our top two key guys got hurt AND we didn't get homefield advantage. Regardless on if we win or not, it doesn't make his plan any less of a fail. If we win it will be despite that, not because of it.

A second round of circular logic isn't going to make you any more intelligent than the first time you tried and failed miserably.

Nobody at patsfans.com knows the true extent of "injury", healing time, or time frames. At this point of the season........everyone is dinged. All that is available is conflicting reports without context.

Just the idea someone would draw such sweeping conclusions means trying to justify pre-drawn conclusions.

However, you might get lucky as a blind squirrel.

You can't be serious. Winning in the playoffs has everything to do with things.

Yet you are...........and you base your argument on a series of conflicting facts that lack context to draw conclusions.

You might be right but that would be getting lucky going blind squirrel vs ant plan to logically decipher all known facts.

You once again completely miss the point and I have very little patience for people who can't comprehend what is written so this is my last response to you. Even tho it will probably just go over your head again.

What "sweeping conclusions" am I coming to? My post said that our two key guys got hurt going into the playoffs. That is a fact. This is not "sweeping conclusions". Are you trying to argue otherwise? There is more than enough evidence to prove this claim. Again, how hurt brady and gronk is and rather they are still healthy enough to be effective, is irrelevant to my point and belichicks plan failing. My other point was that we didn't get homefield throughout the playoffs *number one seed*. Another fact, not a "sweeping conclusion".

This is my point so please if you need to to ignore everything else I've written just so your brain can process this correctly feel free to do so. Belichicks plan was to put health first and not go after homefield aggressively. The results, we don't get homefield *number one seed* and our two most important guys get hurt going into the playoffs.

We can go on to win the SB, winning and losing has nothing to do with my post or his plan being a fail. Winning doesn't make his plan any less of a fail. It just means we were able to overcome it. The fact you even brought that up *us not playing a playoff game yet* shows me you didn't understand what you read or the context behind it.. And you proved that yet again with this response.

Gronk was present and accounted for at the walkthrough today. Mike Florio stated he believes the Pats are way overstating Gronks injuries and he thinks it's all been a game of deception.

Of course this is just Florio drumming up "Pats are cheating" comments.

Not really. Is he knee 100 percent? Probably not. Is his back 100 percent, probably not. So listing it isn't incorrect. Nothing wrong, just embellishing a little bit because his "pal" Andy Reid is f-ing around with Maclin. Questionable. Right.
 
Not looking super

From earlier in the day from Howe. Looks like the knee is flaring up :(

Jeff Howe ‏@jeffphowe 8h8 hours ago
Gronk's knee is an issue and he'll try to play through the pain tomorrow. The back isn't much of a concern from what I understand.
