Great in depth article with pictures explaining what we seemingly already know about Gronk.... and why we need him healthy down the stretch.
Why the Pats Can't Win the Super Bowl Without Rob Gronkowski » Ex-Pats
The New England Patriots have now played—and won—two games without All-Pro TE Rob Gronkowski. Life without Gronk hasn’t been devastating for the Pats, and old adages hold firm: The rest of the offense must continue to “step up“ in his absence. But don’t let the early returns fool you into thinking the Pats don’t need Gronk.
Yes, the Pats are an elite team, one whose success is predicated on a balanced offense and an opportunistic defense. But Gronkowski is an instrumental part of New England’s system, and the Pats will need his irreplaceable skill set to advance through the AFC’s elite and bring home a fourth Lombardi Trophy.
