Judon and Gonzalez injury discussion

[sb1]

Listened to Dr Chao on Sirius XM NFL radio. He thinks Judon could return late in the season obviously depending on where the Pats are at. Gonzalez may also need surgery but could return a lot sooner than that wearing a shoulder harness.

The Pats window is not open yet so I don’t see the point. If the season is lost get the surgeries and come back in 2024 with hopefully a team that has much brighter prospects.

Could be a great opportunity to see guys like K White in the meantime. Just no Bryant please. Even Dak said he was surprised the Pats had him out there 1 on 1 after Gonzalez exited.

Probably the 2 players we couldn't afford to lose the most. This season is gonna be an absolute train wreck.

#1 Pick here we come watch out Chicago.

I'm in favor of Starting Mac the rest of the way. This Defense Minus Judon and Gonzalez won't be able to help this Team or Offense. Going to be nice picking very early for change. BaconGundy warm up that Draft Forum will start watching the College game even more closer now.

Possibly getting a top 10 pick is worthless if Belichick is the one doing the picking. Need the NEW guy to set up the team for the future.

We can only hope he walks away after this 1-16 Season.

It’s time to…




Belichick won’t do it, but I wish we would. Get Caleb Williams or Maye.

Gonzalez looks like a special player. Not hard to see he’s got ”it”. The Pats haven’t had many of those lately.

Protect the investment. Don’t see any upside to playing him too soon and risking a chronic problem.

Bill will trade down and take a special team specialist and a defensive player ranked to go in the 4th in the 2nd

Thirty years ago, the preseason game that wrecked an entire Patriots season

Looking back through a haze of morphine at a miserable, unbelievable moment. "We were a sight to see," Tippett said. "It was a mess, man."

I remember watching that game as I was tending bar, season over before it began.

Hopefully Gonzales injury isn’t a lingering long term issue.

 

[Brick27]

Would rather shut Gonzalez down if there is even the remote chance of a prolonged problem. Bring Judon back though if he’s good to go.

Yup. Was there.

Bills picks have been poor on average recently. But when he picks high he’s been pretty good.

Will probably select the next Cole Strange from West Eastern Alabama State University.
Damn, I have lost it completely. Need to get my **** together.

 

[slash83]

Schefter reporting Judon on Wednesday will undergo surgery for a torn bicep, said might have a chance to play at the end of the year.

I doubt they’ll be playing any meaningful games by that time so doubtful will see him again.

 

[sb1]

Judon getting the surgery. That's a smart idea. Dr Chao says 3-4 month timeline which will take him into January minimum.

Back in time for the Pats in the Super Bowl!

 

[Ghost of Autumn]

Hopefully Gonzo is back relatively soon. I just want him to get more reps and experience. Will also be nice to see what K White can do with the increased workload.

Back in time for the Pats in the Super Bowl!

I think he will able to play Madden before January
