Not yet, but I am hearing that Thompkins may be inactive and Dobson may play.

... Back in October, Brady suffered ligament damage in his throwing hand. It's healed now. But he had to fight through it then.

Didn't know this...

oh yeah, sucks that Thompkins is out, but expect big games from Wilfork, Mayo, and Gronk.

This game should be all about blount and the defense shocking everyone.

Who know what brady will do.

I am so ready for this game to start

Mike Reiss @MikeReiss

Patriots kicker Stephen Gostkowski extends his warmup out to a long of 57 yards and easily makes it. Ball exploding off the foot of both Ks.

In spirit, all of them are here. lol.

Mike Reiss ‏@MikeReiss 6s
Both kickers have concluded warmup. If we get to a half-ending or game-ending situation, could see 60 yards being reasonable range for both.

No deferring in OT this week.

Lets go Pats! Nervous for this game to start..

Can't wait to see what game plan bill comes up with to shock the world......Brady just has to play decent.

Jeff Howe @jeffphowe

Sun is playing a factor. Amendola just let a punt bounce off his chest.
