1. "I know injuries happen to every team" In response to Reply # 0
but i cant remember a team being this hard hit week after week after week with injuries to their key players. Im hoping the "Bellicick" treatment pays off yet again and Montee Ball turns beast mode jr.

5. "Steelers lost Pouncey and the starting FG kicker in preseason" In response to Reply # 1
LeVean Bell lost for year in week 6
Ben went down, Vick played then he got hurt, Landry Jones played then he got hurt and Ben replaced him.
Starting Left Tackle out for the year, 2Nd round CB draft pick on IR before season started.

2. "I'm more worried about Easley than Blount." In response to Reply # 0
Pats don't seem to have a lot of trouble with the "next man up" thing at the RB position. Plus I don't think Blount is that good to begin with.
Easley is more difficult to replace. He's been having a hell of a breakout year and that D line was gelling. They certainly have some depth there but it's not as easy to replicate what he has been doing this year.
Re: the overall injuries, I feel like this same thing happened to NE a couple years back. Just piled on and on and on til it was too much to overcome. They're smart and well coached so they will always be competitive but hopefully this is the last of it. Feels like 3-4 guys go out every game since the Giants game.
Which reminds me, the Giants have a curse on the Patriots. I've never been so sure of anything in my life. Everything was going swimmingly til the Giants game. Snuck out of there but lost Edelman, and it feels like we've lost at least 4 guys per game since (plus two losses). 2 to IR every week. It's insane. And I can see it coming from a mile away.........I don't even want to say it. Nevermind.
