  1. This is where I disagree. He's proven beyond a doubt that he uses that arm brace as a weapon. He's lost the argument that he needs the brace for protection. Its getting like pro wrestling. Are our guys permitted to carry clubs onto the field with them? How about all the Bills players come out with protective arm braces and use them to throw forearm shivers. A lot easier when you've got metal, isnt it?
  2. Can the Bills request NFL to not allow body armor? Serious question. I understand the need for padding and player protection. But Gronkowski clearly used his forearm "protection" as a weapon against 27. And knocked him out of the game. If I'm the Bills, I tell NFL I dont want Gronkowski bringing a club onto the field to use agaisnt my guys. And I make it very public. At worst you get into his head.
  3. He has 10 drops. Highest in the NFL. More than a couple.
  4. I think this is a pretty silly comment. 1). I doubt McD chooses the special team hands team. That responsibility falls to the special team coach.. 2). I really doubt this is an "in game" decision by anyone. This is a professional team. They practice these plays, and they know who will be playing. I'm pretty sure McD isn't prowling the sidelines saying "you, you, and you, get out there for the onsides kick"
  5. Aiken said he was trying to break press coverage. Watch the video. Hmmmm...like I used to say to my kids "God knows when you're lying"
  6. Reading a bit more of this thread, I can see where it s heading. The NFL will give Bills a severe "talking to" before the Pats game. Saying that if anyone sneezes on Gronkowski, they're getting a flag and full year suspension. If I'm the Bills, I ask why this guy is allowed to carry a weapon (arm club) onto the field. It is CLEARLY used as a weapon. Bills should tell the NFL that Gronkowski has lost the privilege of wearing an arm brace. His arm CLEARLY isnt that fragile--he just showed that. I'm completely serious here. Bills should enter that request, and make it public, so NFL is forced to answer the request.
  7. After seeing that clip, NFL should prohibit Gronkowski from wearing that arm brace. He used it as a weapon. If he breaks his arm again, thats his problem.
  8. It was clearly intentional grounding. 1) Brady was in tackle box 2) Ball didnt go past the LOS. 3) No pat were within 10 feet of the ball. Romo said there were receivers in the area, but he was wrong.
  9. Goodell should suspend Gronkowski for 2 games more than White misses due to concussion. Pretty straightforward. Maybe that will wake people up.
  10. Just want to make sure I have this straight. A white guy and a black guy are celebrating a TD, and thats racist? Hmmm.....Aristotelian logic at its finest.... http://www.bostonherald.com/sports/patriots/the_blitz/2017/11/rob_gronkowski_insists_impromptu_celebration_was_not_planned
  11. After 8 pages, I'm astounded that people dont understand the concept of arm strength. Arm strength IS ball velocity. Period. I'm 60 yrs old. My name aint Rico, but I can throw a football 50 yds. Its a rainbow. A classic 50-50 ball. That ISNT arm strength. Arm strength is throwing a ball 20-25 yd on a rope. It gets there before the DB can react. Thats arm strength. Favre, Brady, Stafford have arm strength. Watch their games, watch the 20 yd outs. Next point is accuracy. Watch Drew Brees. He is the most accurate passer I've ever seen. Look at the youtube. The last issue is recognition, and knowing when to throw. An acquaintance of mine was a D1 college coach. He pointed out to me that a good QB had to have a good OODA loop. Explanation. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OODA_loop Ive watched TT the last 3 years. He didnt have a quick OODA loop when he started, and it hasnt improved. Time to check the next guy.
