Gronkowski Will Play in this Game, One Way or Another
I think it is fair to say that Gronkowski will play in this, it will just be a matter of how much and in what situations. It is my belief that he does not half to play the entire game, especially if they decide to go hurry up for most of the game. Going hurry up will be a key in this game as the Giants will be forced to keep in their nickel package and more important, this will tire out the Giants pass rush for the second and fourth quarters. If this is the case, Gronkowski's great blocking skills will not need to be as much of a factor as the Giants will have a smaller defense on the field. Gronk needs to be on the field on third down and inside the Giants' 20. In these situations, it will not matter how healthy he is because the Giants will have to keep two guys watching at all time due to his size and athletic ability. Gronk may not be his normal self, but the mere fact that the Giants will be forced to move another guy to cover him in the red zone, opens up the rest of the group for Brady. So have no fear New England fans, Gronk will play this Sunday!
