Charles Romes Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 He was on a great tightends round table on NFL Network the other day with Gonzales, Winslow, Sharpe, and Gates. I couldn’t believe he was invited to that HOF table. His career stats are about half of what the worst of the other four are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What happens in Nashville stays in Nashville. Not because it’s like the Vegas policy, but because I was overserved to the point of a faulty memory. At least Plenz took his naps in private. And that’s all I have to say about that. I ran up quite the Uber tally, I must say. The damn emails tell me that. I need a few days before I check my receipts on food and drinks (NOT in that order).I took a friend of our sons who lives in Nashville. He texted my wife thanking her, but he did not have to come clean on 5 beers by 9:00am at The Grand Plenz Airbnb and his first quarter hang over! My sincere apologies to anyone I might have offended. But it was a hell of a time!!! “No Regerts!” (I have not checked for tattoos yet, but I hope that would NOT be my first!) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRA3196 Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 maybe the pats are making room for Kroft. Would anyone be truly surprised if we trade the TE to NE for a ...oh lets say...maybe a 5th round pick in 2021? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 We have an open Roster spot. No?

In all seriousness, I won't be surprised if Gronk returns after week 8, and if that's the case, that might be playing a role in this. I have every expectation that they'll be 8-0 by then given their upcoming schedule (NYG at home, NYJ in NY, and Cleveland at home). The five games after that: Ravens on the road, Eagles on the road, Cowboys at home, Texans on the road, Chiefs at home. That's a brutal five-game stretch. The final three are Bengals on the road, Bills at home, and Miami at home. All are probably fairly easy victories, so the worst they'll likely be is 11-5. It's more likely, however, that they'll end up at around 13-3 with the number one seed. Edited October 8, 2019 by dave mcbride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't expect Gronk back with his cannabis oil endorsements and all that. I can see them trading for a guy like Kyle Rudolph though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gugny Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 (edited) Is it feasible to think that the Patriots* did this simply to keep other teams from signing him? With him being suspended, anyway, I'm not sure what they'd gain from doing that. But there has to be a method to this madness. During suspension, is a player allowed to look at playbooks?

BB said they couldn't find anyone to release to create a roster spot. They feel their team is great as is and doesnt need to be tinkered with.
