I've actually felt this way for a while now, probably going back to the Ray Rice debacle. I understand that you wouldn't know that. Just saying, it's not an emotional response to the Gronk deal, for me, it's what I've felt would be in the best interests in the league for a while. It seems to me the main cause of Goodells PR problems is the discipline function that he seems to own entirely. He should relinquish that responsibility.

Just win With the playoffs still within reach, they can't afford to have any players suspended for the Miami game. And you just know the zebras will be looking for any excuse to penalize, it not toss, a Bills player for suspected retaliation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should relinquish that responsibility. after applying the same discipline to any bills player who loses focus this weekend, I'd be ok with that. you just can't afford to send two different messages, in a span of three weeks, with one application to one of the highest profile players in the game and a harsher penalty to a regular joe.

Kingston Bills Fan Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Because he complained in the public that what drove him to get so frustrated to do that was being held so often. Guaranteed the refs call multiple holding and PI’s on the Bills ultimately costing us the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, can't agree with that. If the Bills retaliate, we know it's premeditated and it would deserve a harsher penalty. That would send the message the revenge is acceptable.

I have to tell you klos, I see gronkowski's actions as pre-meditated. the play was over, he looked at a guy laying on the ground and made a conscious decision to inflict pain on him. he was successful in doing so. on the other hand I can see you seeing it differently. reasonable people can disagree. if it's a game on the shelf, it is a game on the shelf, and the nfl has said quite loudly...that type of activity warrants a one game suspension. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papazoid Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 alter the game plan.....double team him more than usual. go out of your way to hit him harder than you have ever hit anyone. if you get a chance to go after his knees....you do it....all friggin game. brady is fair game too.....send a message loud and clear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 This is such a big game, I’d hate to see the Bills get hurt by a costly cheap shot penalty. i can wait for the next Pats game in Buffalo. Just imagine his family watching him leave the game on a stretcher & being pelted with garbage from the stands. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hebert19 Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Shut him the !@#$ down. That's how they should handle him. I'm more interested is seeing what he does. Will he make the effort to cross the field to say something to tre.. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rattle him all game and wait for another explosion. Hopefully this flag(s) are very beneficial for us. totally agree. The dude is a headcase. I would start talking to him about his mom, gf, etc after plays. I would also bump him every time he comes off the line. The combo of those 2 things and he'll lose his mind, commit offensive PI, etc. 3 hours ago, klos63 said: I agree the Gronk penalty was woefully inadequate, however, after Brady's ridiculous suspension last season, it's impossible to say the Pats are treated with kid gloves. The league needs a separate commish/director for just discipline, like hockey does. To argue that subsequent penalties should not be dealt with more severely just because of a mistake on the handling of Gronk would be a bigger mistake. They f'd up, don't continue to f up just because we did before, stupid logic there. He sure does seem to outrun his coverage an awful lot. quite easy to make it look that way when you push-off every play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Gronk is not "fast," he pushes off. That's why he looks/is open so often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that's the standard definition of premeditated. If he planned it all game or throughout the 4th qtr, I would agree. If he reacted after that play, no it's not. If it was, everything would be premeditated. If we took revenge 2 weeks after the incident, that's more like the according to hoyel definition of premeditated.
