That injury looked pretty bad and I doubt this guy will be able to play let alone make a difference.

I'll be taking the Giants.

He will play and he'll be fine.  Guys have played the Super Bowl with broken legs, I am sure an ankle won't keep him out.

That was a very nasty rodeo drag-down. Really bent his leg and ankle back and drove his weight down on it. 

If it was this week, he might not make it.

He'll be a bit hobbled and not 100%. 

Advantage, Giants.

A broken bone would be better. A wrenching high ankle sprain though. I think Giants win with a healthy Gronk anyway. Without him, it looks all sewed up.

Who cares if he plays.  Giants spanked them up in Foxboro with him and that was without half of their offense (No Bradshaw, H. Nicks, Baas, Hynoski) and their defense was playing like shit at the time.  With a full offense and defense playing the best football all year...Giants will spank them again. You will see

Not to mention,  Mario Manningham was out too. Tuck, Osi, and Pierre Paul were all dinged up too with various injuries that they were playing through.

Injury

Here is a video of the injury. Stop it at 15 seconds and then try to tell me that Gronkowski will be a go in the Super Bowl.

That is one nasty high ankle sprain.

The Bradshaw and Nicks injury obviously are significant. Gronkowski will be on that field and if he is'nt you can't say it's game-set-match..?..

Also, the Giant defense in that game had enough players healthy to give some type of representation of what should happen in the Super Bowl. Brady threw for 340+ and turnovers were a problem for both teams. The Giants won in the last seconds...

The Patriots defense yet again is overlooked and as the public pushed the O/U number down last week, they're doing again this week. If someone tells me they know who will win this game within an 80% certainty I'd hafta say bullshit.

Personally I wanna actually see the points get put up and I'm takin the UNDER 55....good luck

Brad and Nicks almost non-existent in SF game at SF.

since when did the health of a TE become so important? this wont be the reason why the Pats win or lose.

I know right? Brady's number one target 6 foot 6 265 pound beast of a tight end won't help brady at all. He only owns a number of NFL tight end scoring and receiving records, including the single-season records for tight ends for most receiving touchdowns (17), most total touchdowns (18), and most receiving yards (1,327), all set in 2011.
