BB to TB:

Tom, I’m going to list you on the injury report this week for a bad manicure…

Got to love BB, The league wants all types of injuries listed for Vegas, etc…
All he’s doing is following orders from Lord Goodell,

Coach Harbaugh of the Ravens had a dispute with the league early in the year over an injury report. He stated he was going to follow the Patriots lead and method in the future. This story is filled with venom and resentment against a great organization. You should not use your national pulpit to cast your hatred.

Listing players as questionable makes opponents have to prepare for all possibilities. I believe if what coach Bill does with the injury report was against the rules, the NFL would have said or done something about it by now. All coaches look for any possible edge.

As for Gronk I hope they hold him out until completely healed. You know the other teams will be punching it etc, when in the pile ups.

GO PATS, BEAT THE NINERS!!!!

If someone can show me a completely accurate NFL injury report, I have a bridge to sell you.

I love Bill so much.

The man has spite in his soul, and he’s smarter than everyone. Most entertaining combination of personality traits.

Belichick is following the letter of the law, so the league can not find fault with his methods.

The injury report isn’t right as a concept. Opponents go after players, right where they’re injured, as the Giants admitted they did last year.

Watch out Bill.

Goodell gets mad when you don’t cooperate with Las Vegas and mob bookies by making a mockery of his injury reporting policy.

You are only making it harder for other teams to employ bounties on injured players by hiding injuries as well – and Goodell would rather put gambling interests ahead of player safety.

Expect a fine or a loss of a draft pick.

When he’s done coaching he should become a weather forecaster and he can say the chances of rain is questionable

They were limited at practice. They were then listed on the injury report.

What is the problem here?

Not listing players on the injury report after they were limited in practice gets teams fined by the league, doesn’t it?

If the NFL is going to so narrowly define injury categories, then they should expect teams to list their players like the Patriots do. And trust me, I’m no Patriots fan. This is a case of garbage in, garbage out.

No, Florio would rather the Pats just hide injuries like his beloved Saints and Steelers. Such hypocrisy. You hatred is so transparent, Mike.

The guy I am going against in my fantasy playoffs this week must have swallowed his tongue when he saw Gronk on the “questionable” list.

I can only dream that they would actually play him.

I’m not a Pats fan, but I agree with Bellicheck on this.

The list is for Vegas to set the line and gamblers to use when making their bets. It has nothing to do with football on the field.

I’d list my entire roster as questionable. It’s a crazy though but what if the Pats ran the opening kick back for a TD. Then kicked off and ran a punt back and on and on until the end of the game. There’s a chance Brady wouldn’t touch the field. Everyone is questionable.

He will play just in the endzone plays, if he plays…..

Hey, some teams don’t put injured players on the list

The pats go the other route. Makes no difference unless you
Gamble or are heavy into fantasy. In both cases read the local paper and you’ll know who’s good to go

Why do u care so much about NE injury labels? Think of something else to complain about because this is irrelevant. It was irrelevant last week and next week too. Something new please, your jokes are way old

I love it. Another example right here how the media hates BB. He tells them nothing and gives them zero usable info and of course they can’t stand that and resent it. This is about the 127th time the media has tried to call attention the Pats injury report and the 127th time it goes nowhere and the league does nothing…..and of course….the DBs in the media can’t stand it and they resent it. LOL

Hasn’t Tom Brady been on the injury list every week since he’s been a starter?? I love how Belichick coaches and wish he was the Lions Coach!!

Having an injury report so people can gamble with added information is a helluva lot more questionable than Gronk’s status for Sunday night. What a waste of time and effort.

If only I believed Gronk was going to play. Then I would feel my fantasy football hopes had a beating heart again.

My take.It all depends on the Ravens Broncos game
early Sunday.If the Ravens win Gronk sits if they
lose he plays.Broncos are tied with Pats for a #2
buy and have and easier sched. then the Ravens.

It’s only an issue to those who waste their time playing fantasy football as opposed to golfing, bowling, swimming, exercising, reading…or God forbid…actually working.

Who cares? He’s not on the IR, so he’ll be back…when he’s back.

Wow, New Orleans may get fined for not listing Graham, however New England is overusing the injury report for listing all possibilities. This is questionable.

There’s a 100% chance Bill B. doesn’t care what you or anybody else thinks about his injury report. Much to do about nothing.

That’s what Belichick does, he puts half the team as questionable. That way the opposition has a harder time trying to gauge what to defend. Smart, but wrong. The thing is though Bill Belichick will do whatever it takes to win, even something as low as cheating, which we all observed before.

Personally, I’ve felt all the Pats have been questionable for years!! But, as stated above, this only benefits gambling and bookies.
