Injuries happen. This team was flawed before the Gronk went down. Our D is mediocre. But the good news is that every team in the league has flaws and every team that will be in the playoffs if beatable.
The key for the Patriots is home field. If we get home field we are favored to get to the Super Bowl, and then against a team like the Cowboys or the Seahawks it's basically a toss up in my opinion. They have their own strengths (Dallas's O-line and running game, Seattle's defense) and we have our strengths (Brady & Belichick).
Without home field and no Gronk I don't think we make the Super Bowl. KC, Denver, or Oakland would be pretty tough places to win come playoff time.
