That sucks.

At least Mayo can advise him on rehab.

 

[Eck'sSneakyCheese]

Welp, guess we can't have nice things. Raekwon is an ok fill in but Bentley is seriously the field general on D. This is going to sting.

 

[Saints Rest]

Did Mayo have torn pec? I thought that was a Ted Johnson injury.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Wasn't it reported as the shoulder? Guess that is related to the pec...

Can the injuries stop hitting their best players, how about that concept?

 

[cshea]

I think Hightower had a torn pec too.

 

[Morgan's Magic Snowplow]

Tore it twice I think.

 

[Gash Prex]

Went from “playing on Thursday night” to “out for the season” in record time

 

[tims4wins]

I’m fully on team tank.

Johnson tore his bicep, I think.

Probably an effect of copious amounts of steroids.

Good lord, right?

Whose the next guy up in field generalling? Dugger, Peppers?

 

[cshea]

Tavai? Been on the field for 88% of the defensive snaps.

Edit: Dugger did it last year and took over after Bentley left yesterday

That’s a real bummer as Bentley had come into his own and was trending towards being a top LB in the NFL type by my eyes

Those were the two I had in mind when it comes to getting people where they need to be. Twist my arm I say Dugger. Pep has really stepped up though.

Yeah, I’m more disappointed for him than I am for the Pats. He turned himself into a 10 year vet after looking like he might not get a 2nd contract.

 

[lexrageorge]

He had a similar injury his rookie season, IIRC.

 

[Over Guapo Grande]

Tavai? Been on the field for 88% of the defensive snaps.

And Dugger had that missed communication on the long TD pass...

 

[Eric Fernsten's Disco Mustache]

Whoof

 

[Mugsy's Jock]

Bentley has been a great story, continually getting better. I’ll miss him.

 

[Gash Prex]

Some chatter from reporters that he might be able to come back this season

 

[Ale Xander]

Repairs on Bentleys are always expensive

Disappointing news
Hopefully we seem him back and big next year

A big loss for the Pats. Hope he recovers well.

You mean the same ones -- looking at you, Mike Reiss -- who said Bentley was unlikely for the Jets but should be fine after that. In fairness to Mike, that was based on Bentley's comments. But no matter the source, I think the real takeaway is that no one knows shit.

 

[Dogman]

I moved the random posts not related to the Bentley injury to its own thread.

 

[ShaneTrot]

This sucks, he is fun to watch jack-up guards, and is a tough guy. He paired well with Tavai. I like Raekwon and he plays well when healthy but he has been injury prone. Ellis and Giles-Harris were all over the place during the preseason games hopefully, they can be quality depth.

 

[DJnVa]

Dugger has been named as a captain to replace Bentley per the interwebs.

 

[Kenny F'ing Powers]

Dugger has been named as a captain to replace Bentley per the interwebs.

Considering his coverage skills have picked up this year where they left off last year - terrible - maybe he should replace Bentley at LB as well. God knows he can't cover anyone, but at least he can tackle people.
