N.F.L. Week 13 Previews and Picks
Sunday’s top games include Chiefs at Raiders, Cardinals at Rams and the undefeated Panthers at the Saints.
"5. Eagles (4-7) at Patriots (10-1)
4:25 p.m. Line: Patriots by 11
Rob
Gronkowski is so important to the Patriots that after a game in which
he was carted off the field with what looked like a devastating knee
injury, the tight-lipped team took the unusual step of issuing a
statement about his relatively good prognosis of a bone bruise and
sprain. It was so out of character for the franchise that Coach Bill
Belichick was forced to defend it in a news conference, which he did with his trademark combination of annoyance and condescension.
Gronkowski
is out this week, as is Julian Edelman (broken foot), but Danny
Amendola (knee) is expected to play. Philadelphia is expected to start
Eric Rowe, a rookie cornerback, so Tom Brady should be able to pile on
the misfortune for the struggling Eagles.
Assessing
the Eagles this week, Belichick praised the team’s offense, saying they
are two deep at several skill positions, including quarterback. While
it is true that the Eagles have two quarterbacks, it is not clear why
Belichick would concern himself with Sam Bradford or Mark Sanchez.
PICK: PATRIOTS" 16
