Patriots team isn't healthy..

[English Patriot]

Re: Mankins and Chandler Jones both back to practice.

Not sure how much stock to put in this since its was mostly walkthrough but its better than before.

Back in time for 49ers as long as there are no hiccups by the sounds of it. Just perfect

There are three keys to winning. Depth, coaching and a good qb.

I guess talent does not count?

One of the reasons the Pats win the division almost every year and go to the playoffs is because they have a deep roster, all teams have injuries this time of year, you hope it isnt to Brady or another key player.

Yeah unfortunately they have been key players. Gronk, Jones, Hightower (for a while), Hernandez (for a while), Mankins, Vollmer, Connoly and now Edelman once he has become a Larger Cog in the Wheel.

Basically that's 5 Pro Bowlers out (or have misses significant time) for us and another 3 starters (5 if you count Chung and Gregory)

You hear the Jets call bad luck losing Holmes and Revis... try having our injury year.

mankins should be back with vollmer right? As well as jones? So getting somewhat healthy...but we can;t suffer any more major set back with key pieces are the season will be in jeopardy

Well it's not exactly apples to apples since the Pats have far more quality players than the Rats, it's more likely that an injured Pat is a significant loss.
