ESPN saying it is a herniated disk and there is no timetable for his return.

[VermontRaven]

Sorry for yet another post, but Schefter is now saying 2 months as a timetable for Gronk.

With or without Gronk, Patriots game will still be hard to win. Bennett is no slouch and as long as Brady is healthy, they are usually favored in most games. Also, it's at New England and the Ravens are terrible on the road.

It does give us a nice little boost in our chances though.

True, but no gronk is massive.

Ravens ain't bad @ Gillette though!

While they are historically good at Gillette in recent years, I have already learned to not put all my eggs in a basket with this offense. We average 1.7 TD's a game. Worst in the league outside of one other team that slips my mind. I'll hold out hope for them but I think Brady will be alright.

lol agreed... We can drop the NE game and still win the division

This is starting to resemble 2012 late season and the play offs.

little backwards though for Ravens.. 9-2 headed into Dec. and dropping 4 of 5.. vs.. this year 6-5 heading into Dec. needing to win 4 of 5.

I meant as far as Gronk goes.

Seahawks S Earl Thomas will be out for season and will not return for postseason, no matter how far Seattle advances.

Good news for the Dolphins, Tannehill just sprained his ACL. While he will still miss the rest of the year, the Dolphins post season chances are slipping.

I don't know if we can stick a fork in the Dolphins. They get the Jets next week and the Jets seem to have thrown in the towel. Then they get the Bills, who did not appear to be prepared to play vs. PIT and got worked over ... and that was when they had hope of making the post season. Will they show up in week 16? Maybe, maybe not. Sure MIA will probably lose to NE, but that's possibly their only loss, which would put them at 10-6.

Who knows what Moore will bring. It is not as if Tannehill was lighting things up. Their success has been their D and Ajaya more than anything. 

It would have been nice if ARZ would have not shot themselves in the foot 10 times to start that game. We sure could have used MIA dropping that one.

And there's no guarantee about the NE game either.  It depends if NE is still fighting for homefield or if they already have that wrapped up.

But, here's the bright side....We beat Pitt (and 2 of other 3) and win our division at 10-6.  Miami sneaks in at 10-6 (need Denver to fall to 9-7 because Pitt wins a 3-way tie) as a very weak 6th seed and we beat them down again in the first round of playoffs!

Just caught this on PFT. Could cause some issues for Pittsburgh this coming week.

I don't think it'll matter because I think the Bengals will stink up the joint regardless.

Not too sure I agree as they are a different team with a healthy Green in the lineup. Also, Dalton has played well the last two games completing 72% of his passes.

No doubt ... discussion around Miami is all about having a safety net. If we win the division ... hell yeah, let the Dolphins run the table. I'd certainly rather host them in the opener than the Steelers!

I disagree. I have a feeling the Bengals are going to be a tough out playing at home for both the Steelers and for us. 

Let's just win the next 3 now and the division is clinched. I'd love to go into that last week not needing to beat the Bengals to get in. Let us be able to rest starters as we did at CIN a few years ago. I liked the results of the postseason that followed!

I hear you guys. I just feel that either the Steelers will either put the game out of reach by halftime or the Bengals will choke the game away late regardless if Green is able to play or not.

Hope Torrey is doing better soon.
