FLU BLUE

It started with Ryan O’Callaghan and now it’s spread to Matt Light - another championship game flu bug. It’s become a tradition for these Patriots. As you’ll recall, the flu is blamed at least in part for the second half collapse in Indianapolis last January. On the other hand, Tom Brady’s 2005 performance in Pittsburgh while under the weather has become the stuff of legend.

I’m not surprised the flu strain started with the offensive line; those beards must be germ traps.

You have to wonder whether the Sixty Minute Men will have a full hour on their clocks when they take the field on Sunday.

anyone have any ideas how much it has affected light and ocallaghan ? This could really determine our pass protection against SD especially light vs merriman.

I fully expect Light and Co. to strap on diapers if need be (it is the stomach of flu right?) and get after the Chargers!

Funny thing is, Merriman also came down with illness this week (I think it was flu as well). Makes me think they are both playing mind games

O'Callaghan and Light only missed one day each, it sounded like they had "flu-like symptoms" not the actual flu.

To hell with diapers. It makes it harder to push them out of the way.
