He had surgery to repair a torn biceps. This is a big loss for the Pats. It'll make our games closer and gives us the first ray of hope on a possible division championship.
Nate Solder hasn't been very good this season, but he's probably better than anything else NE has; they're interior line was already weak as well. The Jets really have an opportunity to make a run if they make the postseason.
not a big deal. The Patriots will find some bum off the streets, plug him in and he'll end up all pro. Then when he want's a raise, they'll cut him.
They lied about what he hurt initially, Solder contracdicted the officiAl statement that it was his elbow in the locker room press conf......no big shocker there. Now, only if this fucktard gets his just desserts. Remember .....Tom is a big game hunter
Big deal. They seem to have countless big injuries every year, but are fine thru them all no matter what.
they were fine without Br*dy..... 11 wins outside of the Br*dy injury, i don't think they've taken any more impactful injuries than other teams tho. less probably..
losing Solder is a blow no doubt. but i agree with others that losing the LT is probably a little less harsh on NE than it would be on most other teams. they run an offensive system based on preparation, pre-snap recognition, rule exploitation, and releasing the ball for short passes within 2 to 3 seconds. that makes the Oline look good, and makes the QB appear as if he's doing more than dinking and dunking. my only hope is that somehow Br*dy gets massively roughed up as a result of this (on the rare occasion he tries to throw deep). take out the system QB, and you seriously impact the system. hopefully the Jets are the team to do it. lets go Sheldon! redeem
They did ok without Brady in '08, but not great. The AFC East had an easy schedule that year. That's why 3 teams won 11 that year. The Pats didn't beat a team with a winning record that season.
