One thing to know: Pats will survive without Gronk

All due respect to Rob Gronkowski and his unique skill set, but the Patriots will survive without their tight end's presence. Sidelined with a broken arm, Gronk is forced to miss the remainder of the postseason as the Patriots move on to face the Ravens in the AFC Championship game. With guys like Wes Welker, Brandon Lloyd and Aaron Hernandez still catching passes from Tom Brady, Mike Florio acknowledges New England might be better off with Gronk out, as opposed to a less than 100 percent tight end.
