Wes Welker and Aaron Hernandez are no longer with the Pats (12-4) and tight end Rob Gronkowski is out with a season-ending knee injury. But Brady has proven he can win with younger, lesser-known receivers.
And the Colts will be at an even bigger disadvantage after giving up 513 yards and 44 points in last weekend's crazy wild-card victory over the Chiefs. Starting cornerback Greg Toler will miss the game after going on injured reserve this week with a groin injury,Hydro Flask Rea, and it's still uncertain whether LaRon Landry (concussion) will be cleared to play though he was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.
