You mean Gary Guyton?
It's funny isn't it. They showed Guyton in there after Mayo went out and there was a night and day difference in play.

There was no drop off in play with Guyton in there today.
Mayo is far and away our best linebacker. Behind Wilfork, he's our best defender period. He's also the leader of the defense, something that has a value that can't be underestimated.
If he's not playing, we're going to notice it. Really hope it isn't serious and he can play against the Jets next week.
Maybe he was just feeling lazy?
Seriously, this really sucks. Feels like that Steelers game in 2005 when the Pats won but they had some costly injuries that hurt them later in the season. Actually the SD game this year felt like that too.
Aaron Curry is on the block. Misused in Seattle. Definite up grade over Guyton and White.
Not part of the Carroll regime, he can be had. Bigger than Mayo. Better sack totals. Plays Mayo's exact position in the new defense. Super athlete.
I doth protest if BB tries to draft another LB IN 2012 when a talent like this can be stolen. BB rots on WR and LB's. I have no idea why the Pats F.O. would blink on this.
The Steelers said he was ready to break out when they played and could not understand the Seahawks mind set.
PJ ????Sign the beast?

Ian Rapoport via tweeter --- Sources close to the Patriots say Mayo has an injury to his left MCL and could be out six weeks. Ouch.
mayo has a mcl injury from looks to be out for month according to patriots .com radio show
That is what I was thinking.. My only concern is that I believe it's the same knee that he injured the MCL last time. I hope the Pats let him fully heal before bringing him back..
Agreed. He wasn't the same player that season after coming back from that injury. Shut him down as long as you need to. If that means he isn't back until weeks 11-13, so be it.

Great news and you can do a whole lot worse than Guyton as a 6 week stopgap.

Considering how lazy Guyton played today after Mayo was out, I have to question that statement.
The defense played better when Fletcher was at MLB, Ninkovich was at SLB and White (yes, Tracy White) was at WLB.. the LBers didn't commit to the run too quickly and when the run came, they actually were in their appropriate gaps..
Didn't see the game. Interesting to hear that White was getting reps.
