Be Careful Around Bernard Pollard

Ravens safety Bernard Pollard has been part of several plays where players on the Pats have been injured. It started when he was with the Kansas City Chiefs when he knocked down Tom Brady in the opening drive of the 2008 season. Brady suffered his now famous knee injury that cost him the season.

Pollard moved on to Houston for the 2009 season. In the season finale against the Pats, he was pursuing Wes Welker on a play when number 83 slipped and tore his ACL. Welker's loss was devastating for the Pats in the playoffs as they suffered a first round loss to the Baltimore Ravens.

Last season, he was in on the play when Rob Gronkowski suffered his high ankle sprain in the AFC Championship game that left him ineffective for the Super Bowl loss to the new York Giants.

Pollard will be on the filed tomorrow when the Pats play the Ravens. Hopefully, nobody gets hurt, but you never know in this game. The game is so fast and filled with violent collisions.
