Gronk chooses Elle on “The Choice” (by MW3ninja46)
In case you missed this last night and you care. Personally I’m Off-Season Gronked out. At least he’s not limping anymore I guess. Three more weeks till football is back and it can’t go fast enough.

EXPECTED TO SOLDER THE LOAD THIS FALL

Dowling fully participated in all offseason activities, so he’s positioned to be on the field for the first day of training camp July 26. My sense is that the Patriots would like him to seize the right cornerback job, allowing Kyle Arrington to move inside to the slot (where he played well in the Super Bowl when matched up against Victor Cruz). But Dowling will have to earn it. As long as he stays healthy, I could envision that scenario unfolding.

We’ve gone too long without a Ras-I post. Have to agree that this is what the Pats would like, we’ll see how it unfolds.

I don’t think Brady got to an A+ football look until 2003. Still had to downsize the chinstrap and finalize the loose, pulled-down low helmet/facemask look. Plus his face always looks so puffy in ‘01.

What will the Brady-to-Gronk combo do in 2012?
I don’t envy opposing defensive coordinators this year. There will be no simple solution to the well balanced foursome of Gronk, Hernando, Welker and Lloyd. Teams better have a plan for Gronk first and foremost because you can’t manufacture a scheme to stop him, you must get the players who can physically match up on him in the off-season.
What teams do on Gronk should be one of the most interesting X and O factors in 2012, especially in the red zone. It might be hard for Gronk to put up the same amount of touchdowns but whether he’s catching them or someone else is, it still means he’ll be a big problem that needs to be addressed.

In years past, treading between the numbers was a danger zone for receivers, who expected to be re-routed if they tried to run a crossing pattern or to take a potentially concussive hit once they caught the ball. With officials being more cognizant of penalizing helmet-to-helmet hits, players have backed off, making the middle of the field a far safer place to play.
For proof, look at the New England Patriots. Wes Welker, Gronkowski and Hernandez work the middle of the field like an Etch A Sketch. They exploit matchups, talent and rules arguably better than any team in the league – especially with a pinpoint passer in Tom Brady.
