As Bill Belichick would say, we'll have to wait for the injury report tomorrow, but it's possible that the Patriots could be catching the Broncos without leading rusher Correll Buckhalter.

The Denver Post reported that Buckhalter suffered a badly sprained ankle against the Cowboys on Sunday. Mike Klis wrote there is a decent chance that Buckhalter won't go on Sunday.

If Buckhalter, who leads Denver with 37 rushes for 267 yards, can't go, the Broncos still have rookie Knowshon Moreno, the leading rookie rusher in the NFL, and former Patriot LaMont Jordan, whom Josh McDaniels took to Denver with him.
