Gronk

Ai'te fellas,

With gronk concussed, how do you think this will affect (if at all) preparations for the superbowl?

Let's keep the discussion gronk specific.

I would think he more than likely will be ready for the super bowl.

He will have almost two weeks off.

Not sure if he'll miss practice.

He misses two weeks automatically, right? He might miss the Superbowl, but given the teams we might be facing, we'll be alright.

He'll be fine.

Huh? That's actually a rule? No way.

I don’t think it’s a rule. We don’t know how bad it was though.

No such rule exists. There is nothing "automatic" about it. He will have to pass concussion protocol. I have faith he will.

Rob Gronkowski is not missing the Super Bowl.

He will probably miss this week and then get cleared during the week after (hopefully!)

I think he was close today but they played it conservatively. He'll be ready to go.

He'll be fine, most guys are cleared after a few days

I'd be extremely upset if he misses the SB, though I do expect him to miss one week of practice

Nobody knows. Could be a couple of days, could be weeks and he misses the SB. Concussions really are not predictable..

He is fine. We just beat the best team. With or without Gronk we will win. Afc is the king despite what lemmings call for.

lol slow down there... why the arrogance? We very nearly lost. And we def won't be -7.5 favorites against either team next week.

Brady has not been doing a better job of protecting his guys. I know we were desperate but he could have gone to someone else there or thrown the ball away.
But I know there is the CTE craze right now but I am sure glad Church did not go for his knees. The guy has suffered enough.

He will be fine for the super bowl i think. Guy on the vikings was knocked out cold last week and was back this week.

He might have been close since it took them halftime into the 3rd quarter before declaring him out

Wha?

Will Church be suspended to start the 2018 season for the hit on Gronk ?

When will the punishment be meted out ? Monday morning ?
