Edelman suffers knee injury, Patriots fear torn ACL
New England slot receiver JULIAN EDELMAN suffered a right knee injury early in Friday night’s exhibition game against the Detroit Lions. Edelman appeared to grab the back of his knee before… More limping to the sideline and eventually being carted to the locker room.

Factoid: New England Patriots
After trading for Brandin Cooks, the Patriots are sure overloaded at wide receiver. Julian Edelman catches a zillion balls, and Chris Hogan and Malcolm Mitchell are also viable players. Is there room for all these pass catchers on one roster? more »

Factoid: Minnesota Vikings
Stefon Diggs caught 84 passes last year, but with just 3 TDs. What are we supposed to make of this? Are we to assume the low touchdown number is an aberration? When a player is catching a bunch of balls, is the correct course to project that will even out, with the touchdown coming the following year? more »

Fantasy Index Weekly: Patriots preview
I’m not ready yet to say the Patriots will win. Atlanta has the ability to trade punches with anybody (I’ll take a closer look at the Falcons tomorrow). But New England’s offense sure looks good.

The over-under is set at 59 points, a total that’s been reached only three times in the last 20 years. more »
Fantasy Index Weekly: New England Patriots
New England’s offense probably will score 3-4 TDs, and just 3 TDs looks more likely. Pittsburgh’s defense has been playing pretty well. It’s allowed only 19 TDs in its last 10 meaningful game. Only two opponents in there scored more than 2 TDs (the Cowboys, and at Buffalo). The Patriots have a great offense, of course, but they’re going without Rob Gronkowski, who’s caused major problems for the Steelers in the past (including two games with 3 TD catches). more »

Quarterback TOM BRADY (right knee), tight end ROB GRONKOWSKI (punctured lung), and wide receiver JULIAN EDELMAN were all missing from the New England Patriots practice on Wednesday. While it’s too soon… More to know if any of the injuries will keep these Patriots out of action on Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams, this will be a situation to monitor over the coming days. Less
