Winning Without Gronk

We always hear about Rob Gronkowski being so important to the offense of the Pats, but they are 11-0 without him since the start of the 2016 season. They are also better in most offensive statistical categories.

What does this mean? Gronk has a history of injuries. He missed the game last week which will hurt him financially. His contract was changed to provide him with all sorts of bonuses, based on playing time. Losing any more games will hurt him big time.

The team is ready to go with or without him.
