First it was the dirtiest play I have seen ever! That includes Suh stepping on Rogers. Also if you honestly believe they be looking for "truth" you don't know the NFL. They just want their pound of flesh and Buffalo lose more draft picks than the Pats have combined and be fined millions of dollars after the false investigation. (Don't believe me ask Elliott)

I need someone how 1 penalty negates 2.. then a second one is on its own and is enforced? The game was over at that point, so wasn't to "help" the Pats as much as just piss poor refs and then wanting punish the team hurt one of their feelings with words.

That is true, but the Seahawks were being stupid and were just ticked off. I say his bigger offense was being an idiot (again) and getting the taunting penalty in Cincy which got him benched for a bit. Gronk a a great player but he occasionally does idiot and dumb things. Some more iodtic and dumb than others.

Lol in all seriousness I understand going after Gronk or even hitting the other WR a little harder and perhaps later, but going after the player the NFL has crowned the GOAT be crazy. Not to mention it's in NE not Buffalo so your not alone with crazy dumb fans, matter fact we have a bandwagon full of them!

Be the dumbest thing the Bills ever did is to go after Brady. As I stated before the NFL cares only about $$, and Brady love him or hate him is a $$$ machine for the NFL. If the Bills go after him you would see a big old fake investigation and the Bills Organization be hit hard. Why? Because you disrupted the cash flow of the NFL and that will. It be tolerated. (Even if it was a lone wolf hit)

Is concussion protocol an injury? Or a precaution make sure he doesn't have a concussion? I'm asking because I have never seen anyone come out and say he has a concussion YET.

I don't think the Bills have a say in the matter. Your owner could yell and scream and do a Jerry jones but I don't think you guys get a dog in the fight.

Goodell is incompetent and Gronk did an elbow drop. (A pile driver completely different and not done in the WWE anymore) that said he should have gotten at least 2 if not 3 games.

I agree I just figure they take notice more the NFL since they are trying "grow" the market. NFL cares about one thing $$$. That's it.

If this had happen against Dallas or an LA team or any big market team I say you are right. But since it's Buffalo I bet it gets hurried and goes away.

One that will be ratings gold they hope and no Gronk MAY weaken the product. Sad but a feesable argument.

I can't disagree, but go after him makes sense but if they do it next game players be kicked out left and right because the refs be "looking" for it. I was them wait till next year get revenge.

Well your a pleasant person. Trying point out I wouldn't be shocked if Gronk is in the ice with BB with these issues as well as others.

My Gutt says BB goes up to him tomorrow and says "you are dropping your appeal" and he drops the appeal. ?

I have stated a few times in this thread I thought Gronk deserved more than 1 game. I was meaning by reading that letter what Alanso did was also a dispensable offense. (Not taking number games just by the way the letter was written.)

BB wasn't happy you know that when he said it was a BS move. This isn't the first time Gronk has gotten BB ticked off, he also ticked him off with the taunting penalty a couple years ago in Cincy.

Am I out of line to think Goodell was just scared to give him 3 games? He is already under full attack by Jerry Jones and let's face it Kraft is not his biggest supporter so maybe he was just scared get two of the most powerful owners after his job? I don't know I fee 3 was warranted.

It wouldn't be, they would launch a full scale investigation and state it was a planned out attack and fine and suspend the player and your coach and take multiple draft picks. Just ask the Saints..

Reading this letter makes me wonder how the guy hit Flacco did not get suspended.

Seems light, but he will not fight it as missing the Phins game isn't as bad as missing the Steelers game. (He should have gotten 2 games.)

i will just say this, that's a dangerous slope you would be heading down because once you bring someone up on charges where does the line get redrawn so as to not get brought up on charges? A late hit out of bounds can be assault.. it's just a dangerous precedent to set. Let the NFL deal with it, then cheer or complain about the punishment then.

I agree Gronk should be suspended, but that hit was nothing like that one or as a Bruins fan the one that ended the career of one of our star players a few years back (he was cheap shorted by a penguin and he never played again.) as for the the length of the suspension I could see 2 games heck I could see 4 games. But knowing how scared Goodell is right now with Jerry jones angry at him I have NO IDEA what he will do.

I didn't know about either of those, so TY for pointing it out.

See you ASSUME the same result. I don't it's not my fault you think a 6 foot man jumping on a 6'7 guy have the same impact as the reverse. I use physics to know it wouldn't be. Not even close.

Honestly I think Gronk gets up and body slams him. Gronk is a much bigger man
