Big Turk Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 keep him out of the endzone, under 50 yards and beat them on their own home field would be the only response we need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the NFL really cared about player safety and wanted to send a message that cheap shots like that will not be tolerated, then he should have been suspended for no less than 8 games.

RoyBatty is alive Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Reality is we should do nothing. Belcihek is going to school him over and over again to control himself, the refs aren't dumb they are going to be watching. We cheapshot him he will likely take it and laugh at the Bills as they get useless penalties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what type of suspension should any Bill face if they deliberately try to hurt Gronk. More than 8, since it would be premeditated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More than 8, since it would be premeditated? well, if they did it right, you wouldn't know it's pre-meditated, so that wouldn't seem reasonable given that they only suspended gronkowksi for a game for an obvious cheap shot after the play was over. I'd guess if it went down during a play, 15 yards and that's the end of it. If they lined him up after a play as gronkowski did, assuming no prior conduct issues, the appropriate suspension would be one game since the standard has been set. I don't believe there will be any retaliatory hits, I don't believe McDermott would approve of it and can't see a player being a douche just because gronkowski pulled a douche move. It's not the way professionals conduct themselves. The result is likely to be gronkowski catching 10 for 285. Just the way the world works, and one reason I'll skip watching it.

Freddie's Dead Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Hopefully they've been practicing knee tackles all week. Hitting the knee from the side can get the MCL (a la the Denver hit on Shane Conlan that basically ended his career). I'd be hitting Gronk early and often, pressing him on routes, and generally getting in his face. Do research on his family, find out if his sister is an Army fan, and run it at him all game long. Throw the kitchen sink at that dirty POS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been discussed all week, if it happens it would be pretty hard to say it wasn't premeditated. Just a coincidence? Hardly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 I would definitely hit him in a low and legal fashion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yungmack Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Every time you hit him, hurt him. Every time he's down, twist his hands , crush his fingers, poke his eyes, knee him in the crotch. And keep whispering to him that this treatment is going to continue every game until he retires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 I would tackle his knees every time. And then when near him, make a motion as if I was going to jump him, but not, just to see him flinch and/or throw a punch. He's retarded enough to fall for it.

stony Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 The only way to hurt him is to go low. He basically thanked that dude from Pittsburgh who went high on him on that 4th and 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been discussed all week, if it happens it would be pretty hard to say it wasn't premeditated. Just a coincidence? Hardly. be that as it may, the question was what the suspension should be. the nfl set the standard for deliberate hits similar to the gronkowski shot. since he got one game for completing a play, targeting the back of a guy's head for an elbow shot, I'd think the nfl should suspend a player who follows the course of action he did for one game. the fact that fans are out talking about it has nothing to do with the player. Tre White, for one, seems to have moved on, which is what most non-jackasses tend to do. that was the problem with the nfl response to begin with. the punishment did not seem to fit the crime, emotionally-speaking anyways. but, given that WAS the response, why would it be different if it happened again? does the nfl say...wait, now we're REALLY serious about this stuff. in the course of a play, throw the flag and hit 'em for 15 yards. for gronkesque wrongdoing...one game. for something worse---a second spitter targeting gronkwoski as he leaves the field---handle accordingly.

Just because they erred the first time doesn't mean the should and will the next time. I hope if someone does this again, they get a much more severe penalty. Still doesn't justify the Bills going after him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
