    he probably wantes to heal quicker. Sux we lose him for the pats. Although to credit new england they lost edelman Hightower for the season amd Hogan for a few games and they still dominate teams.

    If we need to learn to game plan with rhe guys that we havr going on the field.

    what are the chances that he'll appeal and get his suspension dropped down to 2 or 3 games ?

    Zero. They have said that he will not seek to appeal the suspension.

    Agreed, these guys have been in playing football long enough to know what you can and cannot do.

    When these guys are suspended, is it without salary? Or do they still get paid to sit out for making poor judgements?

    Damn I agree 100% How in the hell can you, " inadvertently take a BANNED substance" ? Isn't there a LIST of crap you can take and what you can't ? There are team doctor's in the facilities, don't they know what to subscribe to player's or are these player's buying their shit off the street corner's ? Dumb ass !

    Obviously something to help speed his recovery. No surprise to me he was on the "random" test schedule after his return... Duh

    I'm disappointed because we lose a really good player. But I don't take it personally. Nor do I judge him over it. Athletes do this. They're looking for a competitive edge. Who knows who does what? So much goes undetected I'll bet. Sometimes they get away with it. Sometimes they don't. First offense, so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and hope he comes back the same player.

    On the good side. Hubbard has proved himself a capable replacement. And if Gilbert was cheating to overcome his injury he now has plenty of time to heal completely for the playoffs.

    The bright side is he will be fully healed for the playoffs, the crappy part is the Pats game.

    Goodell is trying to get Kraft back as his buddy so Gilbert won't be there for the Pats game . . .

    Could have been the deer antler spray or something else like it. You can buy it OTC and it works.

    If we lose to the Pats it won't be because of Gilbert being out. It will be the usual suspects: no pressure and secondary blunders.

    The bolded part of your post is the silver lining. Hamstring injuries can linger and/or re-tear. Time is the best medicine. This “forces” him to rest that hammy, so that it is completely healed.

    Now you're coming over to the half-full side
