The New England Patriots earned a huge road win Sunday, but it came at a price.
The Patriots rolled to a 37-22 victory over the Buffalo Bills at Ralph Wilson Stadium to improve to 4-2 and solidify their spot atop the AFC East. Yet the win was dampered by several injuries to key players that could affect the team down the stretch.
Patriots linebacker Jerod Mayo’s injury appeared to be the most severe. Mayo left the game midway through the second quarter with a knee injury that possibly could cause him to miss the rest of the season. In the third quarter, running back Stevan Ridley also suffered a knee injury that the team fears could be a torn ACL, according to a report. To top it all off, Dan Connolly left the game with a head injury in the first half and did not return.
The Patriots have a quick turnaround, as they face the New York Jets on Thursday Night Football in Week 7. Which of New England’s injuries in Sunday’s win over the Bills do you think is most significant?
