Gronk hurt badly (1 Viewer)

[ponchsox]

Looks bad

 

[KCitons]

Haven't seen anything that bad since Lattimore

@HubbuchNYP: That right knee injury to Rob Gronkowski looks gruesome.

 

[ponchsox]

No way he's back this year. FML.

 

[Kenny Powers]

OH #### YOU!!

 

[Bigboy10182000]

@BenVolin: Gronk's leg looks mangled. Ugh

 

[battlebaby]

Really hope he's okay...but that looked brutal. The last thing Gronk needs is another surgery.

 

[Banger]

F#%#.

 

[ponchsox]

Time to go TE dumpster diving. Playoff edition.

 

[SproutDaddy]

Guy is a walking injury.

 

[General Tso]

The concussion protocols strike again...

 

[tdhartis]

Not saying it's going to happen, but injuries may stop him from being the best TE that has ever played. He certainly has/had the potential. Sad to see.

 

[Dimenna]

And Gronk destroys my playoffs in back to back years. Time to hopefully get out of this 1st round and then have to pick up some stiff who I have to hope for 5 points from. Brutal.

 

[Workhorse]

I'd bet on at least two ligament tears in that knee. He might not even be back opening day next season.

What awful injury luck for the Pats this year: Their best two defensive players and their best offensive player not named Brady.

Guy is a walking injury.

Did you see the play? Jesus Christ.

 

[ponchsox]

That impact was like a car crash at high speed. And he got spun around before landing hard. It was going to be bad, it was just a matter of what part of his body was injured.

There goes any hopes NE had in the playoffs.

Exactly. Can't be a walking injury, if you can't walk.

 

[Tool]

have him in all 3 of my leagues. F me.

 

[SproutDaddy]

Guy is a walking injury.

Did you see the play? Jesus Christ.

I did. Not meant to be critical. He can't catch a break.

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

So it look like IR this week then?

 

[Raider Nation]

Hopefully he can get back to his old form next year. That looked awful. :(

He's one of the guys you just enjoy watching play football. Fantasy or not.

I love watching him play and hope he doesn't have a Bavaro type career but that's where it looks like he's heading.

Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski has an MRI scheduled for Monday on his injured knee, but initial testing was "not encouraging," a source has told Pro Football Talk.

 

[Sinn Fein]

You have to think that if there is an ACL injury, Gronk won't be ready to start next season. He's not been one who is a fast healer, nor one who is likely to rush back from injury

Good news is his elbow should be fully healed by the time he plays again...

IMO it looks like more than an ACL. Kneecap, meniskus...

 

[meatwad1]

Well, not to piss on anyone's crap sandwich, but on the bright side, it looks like Vereen is a good beneficiary of Gronk's poor luck.

Definitely going to cut into his offseason partying.

 

[LittlePhatty]

That looked awful. :(

Hit just as he planted his foot. But at least his foot slid on the turf and didn't catch. Bad, but I think it could have been worse.

 

[phrozen]

guarantee he will take a shirtless picture at some point this evening

 

[shadyridr]

Torn acl

 

[phrozen]

confirmed torn ACL

 

[PinkydaPimp]

Bloom retweeted its believed to be a torn ACL.

 

[bushdocda]

guarantee he will take a shirtless picture at some point this evening

This ruling on this post is........Funny!

 

[fruity pebbles]

Torn acl with no other damage is the best case scenario after seeing the play.

 

[PatsWillWin]

confirmed torn ACL

Just a torn ACL?

 

[Breesisdaman]

Mike Garafolo reported torn ACL

 

[PatsWillWin]

Torn acl with no other damage is the best case scenario after seeing the play.

Seriously. If it's "just" a torn ACL, I'm pretty happy. You know, considering.

 

[KCitons]

Anybody know if it was a torn ACL?

####!!!!!!! Note to self, Gronk has missed the playoffs for you back to back years - please bump in August to remind self no matter how much you love Gronk, you can't draft him!

Well this makes sense. A guy named fantasycurse drafted him. I wish I'd known that before I built like 5 teams around him.

Been posting in this thread and all other things Gronk related since July. Sorry though, yes I am cursed in fantasy football... Desperately trying to break the curse this year. I'll report back later.

 

[Papa Georgio]

Not a fan of his but can't deny he's a great player. Really hate to see all the injuries.

 

[Stompin' Tom Connors]

Anyone have a video clip of the play?

And dancing

 

[sports_fan]

best i could find

 

[domvin]

TJ ward got hhim....not surprising, that dude hits like a truck. Gave two claps after the tackle, he knew he tore up his leg.

 

[PatsWillWin]

Still waiting to hear how Bernard Pollard was involved.

 

[ShamrockPride]

Not saying it's going to happen, but injuries may stop him from being the best TE that has ever played. He certainly has/had the potential. Sad to see.

Even if healthy...good luck passing The Great Gonzo. Just my opinion though.

[Shutout]

Still waiting to hear how Bernard Pollard was involved.

Or Brandon merriweather. For a league that seems SO serious about this injury stuff, they fail to recognize they could eliminate 80% of it by suspending about 4-5 guys.
