Edelman Injury Seems to Now Be Confirmed

I hear you.

But JE11 was more than talent. He's the guy you throw to in the Super Bowl on 3rd and 12. He's the heart and soul of our offense.

But I do think that if he's out for a while, we have great depth at WR and the rest of that corps has an opportunity to step up and show the same qualities that make Edelman a Patriots Hall of Famer. Malcolm Mitchell I'm looking at you.

They have options but we will see. Brady always looked for edelman in those big 3rd down plays. Ughhhh

Don't make me laugh while I am in pain.

It just hurts worse.

Yep, just like he always looked for Welker...when Welker left, I was a true supporter of JE filling that role.
Most laughed, and said Jules wasn't near the talent.
The healthy guy who plays for the team and produces is the new gem...it will never end until TB12 hangs it up.

Let's see the wideouts who might be released. There could be some interesting options.

here's hoping edelman is be back soon. in the mean time i say put dj foster at slot.

We are basically replacing edelman with cooks....offense is essentially the same

That's an interesting option. Same size but idk about his experience as a wideout. His route running.

Patriots suspect Julian Edelman tore his ACL, but do not definitely know, per source. MRI on Sunday to determine full extent of injury.

True but that chemistry won't come immediately. You want options out there. Teams might put a safety over the top. I said mitchell would have to step up and he will have to do it.

 

[Joey007]

Sounds pretty likely he tore it. I'll still be in denial until then, of course.

 

[PatriotsNumero1Fan]

Not shocking

 

[robbomango]

Get home from work, turn on the game check the threads and the 1st one was this punch gut....
