2011 Superbowl - Injured Gronk.
2012 AFC Championship game - No Gronk.
2013 AFC Championship game - No Gronk.
I think a lot of Patriot fans are getting so used to being without Gronk that they've almost forgotten we have him on our roster. A lot of freaking out and panicking about our personnel on the offensive side of the ball and I think a lot of it is due to them visualizing what it looks like without our superstar TE.
Without those injuries, it's entirely possible Brady is winning ring #6 last weekend.
Gronk getting injured is almost as damaging as Brady getting injured, and if Brady was in Gronk's situation the last three years, I don't think people would be freaking about our offense like they have been. The discussion would lean more towards crying over our key injuries, which is what I usually do.
Denver had, statistically, the most productive offense in league history this year.
While Gronk was active, ours was statistically better.
So I'm not understanding the panic or the criticisms of Belichick's roster decisions or any of the rest of it.
It's the injuries, stupid.
