As we saw Sunday in Arizona, the New England Patriots are fully capable of putting together a highly functioning offense without Rob Gronkowski and even without Tom Brady.

And as we near Week 2 against Miami, Gronkowski's status appears questionable, at best. The star tight end has been limited in practice with a hamstring injury. At the beginning of Thursday's practice, Gronkowski shuffled his feet at the line of scrimmage as his teammates ran routes at half speed.

So if there is no Gronk again, will New England's Week 2 gameplan look similar its Week 1 strategy?
