Dominique Easley, Nate Ebner, Ryan Wendell, Cameron Fleming all active for #Patriots after being listed as Questionable

Sorry to be a buzzkill, but I think we just need to control what we can control...should be a great game, we are 0-2 in this god forsaking dome, time to turn things around...

The last loss in Lucas Oil Stadium was 2009. Let's not go overboard with the 0-2 record in this stadium. It was five years ago.

Good to see that Easley is active.

Walker's deactivation must mean that Branch is ready to take a bigger role.

Disappointed that both Dobson and Dennard are not playing. I was hoping they would be eased into the line up after the bye. Looks like a red shirt year for both.

Wasnt the SB in LOS as well ?

Yeah, ok four years ago. February 2011 and the team they played wasn't on the field.

Seriously, I've been watching NFL network for an hour --- NO Denver/Rams highlights. WTH?
Are they using the theory " If we don't talk about it, it didn't happen?" theory?

interesting fleming is active. Was he , last few games ?

Redshirt years are for first year. Dennard/Dobson..... something is up there.

From the Broncos perspective, there were no highlights. So that may be why.

I don't think so. I am guessing the Pats will be on offense so much they are gojng to need a lot of depth on the o-line to substitute them. I mean it could be 40-50 minutes of game time.

He has been injured. Dressing 8 OL tonight perhaps going with jumbo line up in short yardage, which has been a probem.

 

[Froob]

Way too early to worry about tie-breakers pre US Thanksgiving. One game at a time, win.

Not for the fans. We can look ahead and speculate all we want.

"The Broncos game? I know NOTHING!!!"

Shame that game got canceled and was never re-scheduled. One of our biggest what ifs. Especially after SB42 was canceled.

Both are coming back from injuries which could hamper their ability to play at their previous levels. Especially in Dobson's case.

 

[Big-T]

Missing Don Jones could be big, he's been fantastic on Special Teams this year, and often ignored part of the game.

 

[SVN]

I have a weird feeling about this game. Not very excited but somewhat worried as always.

The most obvious thing is that there are new and better players at their positions.

They mentioned how good mcfee has been as their punter. ST could be factors as always.
