Jacoby Brissett Facing Surgery For Thumb [MOD EDIT: May not need surgery - who knows anymore]

[Kdo5]

Rap, Schefter all saying similar things and confirming the ESPN lady. Not serious.

I think this is just a case of BB getting bored and upping the difficulty level.

"It's too easy to beat this Madden game. Need to start imposing some self-limiting rules to make it harder".

The patented Patriot hush mode in effect.

 

[Gronkowski123]

schefter says it's fine.

I'm starting in Week 4.

No! No! No!

I'm almost certain that I'm a lot older than you and in a lot worse shape. I'm starting!

If BB wants to show that he can win with anyone at QB, I'm the man! Just give me Brady's parking spot so I don't have to walk too far to the training facility...if you know what I mean.

 

[Kdo5]

I would be very very surprised if at least one of JG and Jacoby don't play ten days from now.

 

[RelocatedPatFan]

why wilfork!!!! why!!!!!

Better Wilfork, than Sergio Brown doing the damage.

 

[IllegalContact]

Interesting to note that both Garoppolo and Brissett were both injured doing things that Brady almost never does

 

[PatsFanSince74]

He is starting for the Bears this Sunday.

Do they have the early game or the late game next Sunday? Just askin'...

 

[MitchKumstein]

LMAO, the clickbait (they aren't targeting either)

"Jets need to call & offer Geno Smith"

What would the jets give us to take him off their hands?

[Kontradiction]

He's lucky that's all he injured there. Christ. The good news is that the pain management situation for the AC joint should be improved by the time next Sunday's game comes around. I'd be surprised if Garoppolo didn't suit up. Some part of me, though, wants to see Edelman play quarterback for this team to see if the Pats could beat Buffalol with him. That would be high comedy.

1PM game.

 

[Bobs My Uncle]

In a weird way I was kinda hoping that we'd see Jules playing QB against the Bills which would have allowed someone to draw up a new Simba cartoon picture showing Brady, JG and Brissett all lining up in the background with BB proudly holding up #11 to the appreciative crowd.

 

[Todd Bradley]

By next Sunday, Jimmy would've had 14 days and Jacoby 10 days to rest.

Unless Jacoby needs surgery, I expect both will be in uniform and active against Buffalo.

Four more quarters and the GOAT returns. We're fine.

[TinhWoodhead]

Pats playing musical qb's....next man up!

 

[patriot1136]

Don't care who plays but we gotta beat the Bills. I can't stand the Bills and Rex Ryan

 

[PatsFanSince74]

OK. I'll fess up.

60% of me wants Jimmy to be healthy and ready to start. That's the sane thing to want, right?

30% of me hopes that Jacoby is able to play, so the Pats can beat Rex with a rookie starting his second game. That's not as smart, but, come on...it's Rex...

But, 10% of me want Jules or a veteran hire to start so BB can coach wins in four consecutive games with three different starting QB's, especially since it will be the win with which he moves into sole possession of fourth place on the all time HC win list.
