Let's talk Gronk

[RxJock1120]

Stop running Gronk up the seams. It's effective but we need him in January. I don't think he will be healthy if they're gonna use him like that for 10 more games. They had the right idea in the first month. I don't care if we are 10-6 give me a healthy Gronkey-Kong and I like our chances.

I really don't think you can avoid having Gronk run only "certain" routes. He has to be able to run whatever route that will get him open...If we limit him to only certain routes defenses will pock up on this quickly.

When we get ahead two tds gronk should come out imo. He is so important that the risk of him being injured is greater than the risk of losing a two td lead. Bring Wright in if you want to throw or another tackle if you want to run. Need gronk for the playoffs.

Yeah.Seems like every defender is going for his knees,I cringe a lot when a ball comes his way...then I'm happy when he makes a catch and bowls over a few guys...what a beast.

YEAH, every team really does go low. I remember the touchdown against the Bengals because I thought Nelson could have hurt him on that one.

I thought it was his elbow that got shaken up by the looks of it on the sideline?

Just a quick tweak of the bionic arm. ;-)

I think they were just re-assembling the pad on the brace. It seems to tear off pretty easily- he left it in the endzone last week.

I really like how Gronk is looking now. He is SO close to 100%.

The Patriots weapons overall are looking very formidable with Gronk back.

Edelman & Gronk are both legit options.

Lafell & Wright both look like if you need them to be your #3 that day they can come up with big days.

Tyms I want to see more of and Dobson has looked good in limited snaps. Seems to have speed and quickness... all the talent you'd expect from a 2nd pick and he doesn't drop balls. I am still very hopeful with him.

I am obviously disappointed in Amendola. Most people here agree that he is currently our worst WR.

Also disappointed in Vereen. He has not done that much. He should be a match up nightmare but he not done much. Maybe other people are stealing touches but if Vereen is as good as we all say he is he should demand them just by being so open and explosive.

He has 18 rec for 114 yard 6.3 avg 0 TDs. This is not the line I was hoping for from Vereen in the passing game.

I really like how Gronk is looking now. He is SO close to 100%.

The Patriots weapons overall are looking very formidable with Gronk back.

The impact that a healthy Gronkowski has on the overall offense is incomparable. Next to Brady, he IS the most important player on this offense. When he's well, great things happen. He is literally unstoppable. He makes guys look foolish and futile, especially in one-on-one.

Can he stay healthy? That's always going to be a legitimate question with him.
