It Is What It Is » Patriots Friday injury report: Aaron Dobson (foot) ruled out Saturday, Alfonzo Dennard, Kenbrell Thompkins questionable

Dennard and Thompkins not progressing as far as we can see. Something to keep an eye on moving forward.

BB would've added a WR to the 53 if KT wasn't ready to go.

Just heard Colt's Darrius Heyward-Bey isn't makin trip to Foxboro, Injury related.

One would think you are right about that, otherwise we appear to be thin at WR (unless I missed a signing/PS promotion from earlier this week or Slater is going to play a lot more at the WR position)

Man do we need Hoo to have some sort of limited breakout game (which for him would be 4 or 5 meaningful catches)

Maybe we actually will see Branch suit up after all...

 

[PatsFan2]

So glad LT Nate Sloder is COMPLETELY off the list our OL should be in Good shape.

Can't be ruled out at this point. Their hurting with WRs so it's a real possibility.

The concern is not suiting up; it is a question of productivity.

 

[DaBronxPats14]

Dobson ruled out for Saturday.

Remember that deep throw to him against SF last year?

Wasn't it to LLoyd?

 

[Archeryaddict12]

Wasn't it to LLoyd?

Yes, and one to Hooman also

 

[TheBostonStraggler]

Remember that deep throw to him against SF last year?

Actually I didn't (who would have thought years of chemical overuse would affect one's memory ).

I'm probably out on an island on this belief, however, I think Hoo stepping up (to some degree) could be one of the most important keys for a successful playoff run. While winning an individual game without it is very possible, it's hard to see a path to winning 3 games in a row against this competition without some modest TE contribution in the passing game -- especially that AD and KT's status are in question.

Hoping that Hooperson steps up and saves us in the playoffs shows how deeply the IR bug has decimated this team

Power run game come on down.

Wonder what's going on with Dobson. Guy hasn't practiced in a while. He's a guy this offense could really use. He went down at a time when he was just starting to break out. Typical story for our season I guess...
