Patriots Injury News Landry-concerning if true

Jadeveon Clowney talk again. I figured that since he's 33, this would end. He's been a free agent like 6 times & he's still not made any impression on those teams to get more than 2 years. Look at his stats. They are not great, particularly his ability to make stops. His highest number of tackles was 59 and that was in 2017.

Sacks are not the ultimate stat for judging a good edge defender that it's being made out to be here.

The easy guess on Clowney is that the scans are not favorable. Doctors say his knee or shoulder or something looks like it’s about to explode, but so far he’s been able to keep everything intact with appropriate rest. Sometimes the MRIs are right (for example, Hightower’s pec 5 games after the Jets failed his physical), and sometimes it never actually leads to a severe injury. Teams are still going to take that into account while fans rely largely on games missed.

They had that guy in K Chaisson but let him walk.

They felt that limited skillset wasn’t worth $10MM. I actually agree, but my problem is there was no plan B

I've been on this since the offseason.. @TheRainMaker remember we discussed this?

Yup. You took heat for mentioning he'd miss time or even potential retirement. Your take is aging well.

If only Vrabel would’ve listened to me dating back to April when I lobbied to sign Clowney. We really could have used him this year.

Yeah but now hard did you try to tell him?
Not hard enough, pal.
Its YOUR goddamn fault

We'll have lots of blitzing; our secondary will be up to the task.

Depends on who we're playing. There are some qbs in this league who destroy the blitz

I called Gillette, been on hold since April.
I'm starting to think they forgot about me.
