Gronk setback further increases need at WR
An article written on NESN.com today by Doug Kyed raises some great points centered around the fact that Gronk's latest injury may negatively impact the Patriot's at the wide receiver position more than at tight end. And I believe he is right.

Week 8 Review – Catharsis Before the Bye
Talk about a major understatement. This came from my preview: “The one key difference between Miami and New England is the passing offense. New England has real weapons and can threaten the Rams defense. Miami could not.” While accurate, the comparison is ludicrous. Comparing the New England passing game to the Miami passing game is similar to comparing a spring shower to Hurricane...
