    Julian Edelman tears his ACL

    Looks like he's done for the season. I hate to see this happen to any player.

    That's the belief. That Cook trade looks even better now.

    They still have the weapons on offense, it's a big loss but they're still contenders. Albeit I'm not sure how their pass rush will be.

    Tough loss, worse than losing Gronk in many ways. One way being that if we lose Gronk again, without Edelman, serious trouble. Not to mention what Edelman gives the team, and the fans, just by being around.

    The downside of football.

    Nobody on here has said anything negative contradicting a recent article where Steeler fans were criticized about being happy when injuries happen to other team.

    What a shame.

    However, the Pat's resilience is amazing.

    They are the epitome of "next man up" imo.

    Even when their starting QB goes down, they still get it done.

    Yep - they will go find another guy who played lacrosse at Penn State - props to Belichick and Brady for having success with receivers that do not fit the prototype

    As good as Edelman is this changes very little if anything at all. NE is still the class of the league until further notice.

    They still have Hogan and Cooks.

    They'll be fine.

    Sucks for Edelman. Great competitor. You always want to beat the best at their best.

    I never root for injuries but they happen and if the Steelers get win the Super Bowl while the Pats are not at their best (as in 2008 when Brady was knocked out for the season in week one) I will value it just as much

    Absolutely. Nobody cries for us when one of our big guns is knocked out. If Birthdefect hadn't knocked out AB, that Broncos playoff game takes on a whole new look. The media and other NFL fans held no pity party for us.

    The problem with the Pats* is that Belacheat* just says "Next"..... and they rarely miss a beat. Assholes.

    Who is crying for us? Gronk went down, we won the Super Bowl anyway. Brady went down, we came within a play or two here or there of going to the playoffs anyway. No Pats fan is looking for tears from anyone. The thing is a player like Edelman goes down and it subtracts from the game. Big Ben goes down, it subtracts from the game.

    It doesn't matter who goes down, they'll put someone from the practice squad in and they'll put up monster numbers.

    Bingo!!!

    The NFL is built on guys like Edelman: great person, great story, the kind of guy that everyone can root for.


    On the other end of the spectrum, I can't decide if I'd prefer that Vontaze Burfict blow out his knee OR that he develop a crippling, testicular hernia.
