It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Well, if he did he didn’t do the greatest job of trying to mitigate the loss of that type of production. I always trust Belichick’s vision, but we lost out on some offensive weapons and now have big holes at both receiver AND tight end.Bill knew weeks ago.
Megatron? Dez?Trade for AJ Green is a MUST, at this point
Almost impossible, I'd say.Congrats to Gronk, goes out on his terms, a champion. Good for us, as fans, we never have to watch him decline.
Not surprised.
Ok, Bill, big shoes to fill.
Yeah, I think that's the right read on this. I'm thinking he was on the side of coming back IF his body felt good by this point. It is likely he still has some aches and pains, and he owed to the Pats to make a decision around now, and here we are.I'd be willing to bet that he's been in communication with the team, and that they had a general sense of where he was. If he was trying to get his body ready and he just couldn't get there, then it's hard to fault him for that IMO.
And even if none of that is true and he blindsided the team, then whatever - he's given the organization enough that any criticism of this decision is inherently misplaced IMO.
Agreed. Gronk is a unique talent, to be sure. But I am confident they will find someone who will get them 80% of the production for 40% of the money. They always do.Almost impossible, I'd say.
