Yeah, it gets easier and easier to understand why Brady is pissed off/dejected. WR is a revolving door besides Edelman. What a joke.

No Sanu, No Dorsett...looks like pouting Tom may have a tough day vs the #7 defense, esp w a running game averaging 3.3 ypc

I still laugh at all the media azzholes who kept saying the Patriots don't need Antonio Brown

What's Curran on with the ankle sprain thing? 2/3 weeks? if it's really a high ankle sprain that's a month minimum. Either that person conveying what he said mixed something up or Curran's report is questionable.

Pouting Tom? Is Antonio immune from injury? I'm taking the Patriots this Sunday. Who are you taking?

Boy it’s gonna be tough if both sanu and dorsett are out for the dallas game. Edelman and harry? Don’t understand why gunner was put on IR unless he was injured.

I don’t what this says about me but I forgot that Bennett was on the Pats this year.

Any wideouts out there worth a look?

Bolden, White and Harry??

Severity can vary. If he does play, will not be healthy. Need something new.

If Sanu doesn't play (which would be a huge bummer because I'm headed to the game this weekend and wanted to see him play) then I expect a ton of Bolden and Burkhead next in White in the backfield.

Essentially the only functional WRs if Dorsett and Sanu are out would be Edelman, Harry and Meyers, with the latter two being very inconsistent at this point. Watson and LaCosse aren't complete non-factors at the TE position, so hopefully they can produce too.

White and Edelman will probably combine for 70-80% of the overall targets and yardage in the passing game this weekend (assuming Sanu and Dorsett can't play. Maybe one or both can go).

How many puppies and kittens would Tom Brady need to kick in order to feel better at this point?

about 100. The injury bug has been brutal to the offense this season. Especially the WRs.

Edelman, 2 rookies, White
and Watson and maybe Lacosse surprises us and steps up in this game. Now I am depressed.

Damn. If I recall correctly, Sanu has only missed one game in his 7 year NFL career....really sucks that we had to have him be the PR.

There’s still enough time to sign Brown before Sunday.

Let’s go Bob.

Man that was a costly win if sanu and dorsett are out multiple weeks. Certainly would help if we could friggin run the ball, hopefully wynn helps there.

Felger and Mazz loved to belittle Pats fans about it. “You don’t need him!”

Sign AB. This is getting old fast.

Die, Dreith.

Dumb decision on BB's part to put him in that decision. Risk/benefit was too great when you are talking about a crucial weapon in a struggling offense who is not equipped to be a difference maker in the kicking game. Either they are going to try to be ground and pound until he gets back (good luck given the running game returns thus far and lack of FB) or Brady is going to have to find it within him to trust a couple of rookies.

It’s rare for someone with a high ankle sprain to be able to finish the game but then again Gronk finished the AFC championship game versus the Ravens. Adrenaline can allow it to happen.

Damn Sanu and PD didn’t practice?!? Any old high school former wrs here? Team could use anyone at this point.
