Funny Feeling about Gronk this week

Maybe its just the breakfast I ate but the more stories that come out about Gronk not starting the more I think he will this weekend. I mean there is a new story every hour that the Patriots are leaning on not starting him but none saying he is definitely out. Also it is all speculation at this point. I mean the guy has been practicing for two weeks. If they were "resting him" would he be practicing in pads? Contact drills? No. Not at all but he is with no reported setbacks. They are getting him ready IMO. I still feel good about a week 3 start as well as a big game.

I can agree somewhat with your thinking, and I hope you're right, but idk...the team clearly looks like it needs gronk, would anyone bet their life on them beating Tampa this week with how how they've played week 1 and week 2 (okay it is Tampa maybe I would...)?

 

Does seen interesting tho that he has been practicing and they're holding him out for more reps? Foster needed what, 2 weeks?

That feeling is Belichik laughing at Gronk owners like me.

Even if he starts, wouldn't surprise me if he was just a decoy. No chance he'd be in my active lineup this week unless I had absolutely no other option at TE.

 

 

I thought about that too but why would they risk him at all if he wasn't a major part of their offensive strategy. You still take hit as a TE with or without the ball. If he's active I'm starting him.

We're talking about Bill Belichick here. If anyone likes to play games with opponents it's him.

 

 

As much as I just want to laugh at this and pass it off as BS... something tells me Belichick might want to stick it to Schiano. They have no history but there've been comparisons made in the media. Think of it as one jerk trying to outjerk another jerk.

 

But then my brain takes over and reminds me the Pats should be able to beat TB without Gronk.
