Burkhead AND Bentley put on IR

[chasa]

That was already tried. No?

Report: Patriots reach out to Woodhead

that was back when woodhead would be a 4th or worse option.

If he came in he'd split snaps with michel, and provide a run/pass option we currently dont have

White can't run and michel can't catch, and defenses are able to play certain styles because of it

IR him and bring a RB that can be reliable, this team can't move forward with a question mark like this involving both passing and running game. Burkhead is an awesome player but concussion and now neck injury doesn't look good, even if he is healthy in a few weeks he will probably play scary, with all reason by the way, I would too.

Per 98.5. Say goodnight to this freaking defense.

 

[JayNM]

Just in.

Rex, i love ya, but u cant stay on the field

Bentley's IR is maddening tho. The tweet i saw didnt give a reason either.

Our draft picks in recent years are cursed... or bad selected

Bentley? WTF? That sucks

 

[VectorPrime]

Simply Disastrous.

Bentley’s on IR..?

Lol our LB’s are so f*cked.

Only two return spots available and the IR list is growing. Not sure who is truly out for the year and who could be eligible to return but not enough spots now.

 

[Joey007]

Why the hell is Bentley on IR? What even happened?

 

[primetime]

I'm not surprised about Burkhead with a neck injury after a concussion, but Bentley going on IR is deeply disappointing. He's been perhaps the only bright spot not named Gilmore on the entire defense.

Running back is now a desperate need. Kenjon Barner is not the answer but he's sure to play on Sunday. Surprises me that Darkwa's still available. Maybe DeMarco Murray wants to play again. Shane Vereen might be an option. Jamaal Charles? Fat Eddie? Cupboard's pretty bare.

Have to think this could be career threatening for Rex. Going on IR 3 days after a neck injury is a scary sign.

 

[JayNM]

On Bentley's injury. According to Phil Perry he was ok in the Locker Room after the game

What happened to Bentley? And Burkhead- I knew he went out with a neck injury, but my god.
I don’t even know if there are answers for this.
PLEASE -FOR THE LOVE OF PATRIOTS -NOOOO
Report: Patriots to place Rex Burkhead, Ja'Whaun Bentley on IR

 

[TBR]

The fact a 5th round rookie linebacker was being relied upon as an immediate starter was insane. The position should have been upgraded through free agency or trade.

 

[Joey007]

What’s even the point? Anytime we actually draft a decent defensive player he either leaves in two years or gets hurt.

 

[SHOWTIME15]

Haha, this season keeps getting better

I'm gonna cry.
