    Gutted for him, he just can't catch a break (no pun intended) at all. Don't know how many more injuries the Pats can overcome, getting quite ridiculous now. That's Mayo, Kelly, Wilfork, Gronk and Vollmer on IR...

    Hopefully Gronk can come back from this as he has the potential to be the best TE to ever play the game, he is an absolute freak of a player.

    In all seriousness I hope he comes back too, I don't like the Patriots much or him, but he has only just come back from his last injury.

    Even as a Pats hater you must no Gronk is better than Graham. Graham is a WR in a TE's body. He can't block for *.

    Cowboys and Bears. Should be a decent game but I need it to be low scoring for fantasy purposes, playing v Jeffery, Marshall and Witten (but up by 42 points)

    Tough break for a great player. Hard to see how the Patriots can over come all these injuries come playoff time.

    The Ravens game yesterday was brilliant, real edge of the seat stuff. Six lead changes in the 4th quarter and 5 TD's in the last 2.5mins of the game. Incredible.

    :56: Aye, I thinks its hilarious. Every time they make a wee tackle, they burst into a wee dance or start punching the * out of their helmet or whatever. Its just random as * at times as well. Spacers just start dancing when they have done * all really. Most of the * are quite obviously off their head on drugs of some sort. The NFL must not do a good job of testing. Not that I'm complaining, I thinks its class watching it all :56: Even the head bangers in the crowd - painting themselves and dressing up and all. America has issues

    It was unreal mate, I thought the Vikings had won it... was on a massive low... then I thought the Jacoby return won it... I was on a high... Then again a massive low... Then Flacco and Brown (thanks to Pitta :D) won it and I was on the biggest high on the season!!!

    JT benefits hugely from having 3 pro bowl WR's who take away coverage. He is still very good but Gronk is better.

    I've been up all night watching A football life. I managed to find the first season online and have finished it already. They are absolutely superb!!

    If you haven't seen them you really need to check them out. All different in their own way about some of the most influential people in the game.

    In the process of downloading season three now but can't seem to find season two anywhere online :38:

    No doubt the defence not forcing a punt all game is another sure fire sign that Romo is a choker who can't play in December. Gutted about last nights result, still in our own hands due to the division record but if there's one thing Dallas doesn't deal with it's a pressure situation.

    He almost certainly is, but JT has been a real surprise package this season.
