Wilfork's injury

[Willie55]

Any updates? I haven't heard anything. The last I saw he was throwing his equipment around the field.

Belichick disclosed after the game that he has a sub-dermatomic contusion and will be out until 3:35 PM on Thursday.

Subsequently the Patriots issued a press release correcting Belichick's statement. He is now expected to be out until 3:34 on Thursday.

 

[JSn]

Haha. Sprained right gonad - questionable (for romance)

Wont know anything until Wednesday probably, unless its really serious. Hopefully that isnt the case

We lose Vince just turn out the lights because the playoff party is over.

 

[HEY BRO! WHAT UP?]

With or without him, the Pats aren't very effective at stopping the run.

It didn't look too bad, he was walking off the field without help and he wasn't on the turf long, until you look into Vince's reaction of humming his equipment around the field. He either thinks it's pretty serious or it was the result of a cheap shot.

yeah right, bet a beer that we wil be worse off without him??

Unless you compare their effectiveness stopping the run to their effectiveness stopping the pass. Actually, I thought their run defense was pretty good.

this.

Vince is overrated. Not that I want him missing any time. He's solid, just not the player many believe he is.

Yes, he is. He's had a great season.

i agree with vince teams are geting like 110 yerds a game on the pats and with out him they will get like 150

40 yerd more in the runing game will not give a team 20 more points

wilfork is a great player but he can't get to the QB or cover a WR and that's how teams have been puting points on the pats not with a runing game

 

[zeke mowatt]

Yes, he is. He's had a great season.

Great?

I would'nt call it that. He's good. Not Great.

 

[pats1]

He's had a fantastic season from everything I've seen on film.

a NT in the 3-4 never gets stats he's job is to get double teamed for the ILB to stop the run

it's just that mayo has not had a good season and the seymour trade so they are still bad vs the run

but seymore is missed more then wilfork will be if they do not resign him

I was at the game and watched when he first go injured. It looked like an ankle sprain to me. I sit in the third row directly behind the offensive line. He was being looked at in front of us.

Pretty much- Wilfork is a very good player (I would hesitate to call him great, but he's definitely close). He's no Seymour, though.

Yes, I believe he was reported to have a foot injury and was questionable to return in the first half. He came in for a bit in the second then had to leave.

I don't think the Pats run defense has really been tested. Why would anybody really test it when throwing against the Pats is like shooting ducks in a barrel? I don't think they've made a third down stop all year that wasn't a penalty or a dropped pass.
