CommonCents Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 (edited) It’s such crap. The rumor was started by a caller that called into the Felger and Mazz Sports Show. The media should be ashamed of themselves for taking average Joe’s speculation and furthering it with their own.

Bing Bong Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 my paranoia is making me believe the Patriots are fabricating all possible signs of unrest just to troll the world. not sure how it would benefit them but they always find a way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: Kurkjian and apparently writes and/or blogs for the Boston Herald. Possibly son of Tim Kurkjian the baseball pundit?

The Red King Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Regarding Gronk, a soldier can still kill a man with a combat knife or his bare hands, should someone knock the gun out of his hands. I still like my chances a lot better if the soldier doesn't have the gun. Saying the Pats can still win without Gronk is akin to saying a soldier can kill without a gun. Yes, technically true, but a hell of a lot harder to pull off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 8 hours ago, OldTimeAFLGuy said: ...so then why the continual worry from their opponents as to "who will cover Gronk"?......fake news?......... I don't think there is that anymore. As others have said teams have stopped gameplanning specifically around stopping Gronk. Go back to 2012-15 and teams were moving their best man corner into the slot to matchup on Gronk. You almost never see that now. Still a good player but not the game wrecker of old. The injuries have caught up with him. 3 hours ago, YoloinOhio said: IF that were true then Bill would just walk out. I think he got the Jimmy G thing even though he disagreed with it.... but if Brady is now running personnel decisions then Belichick would walk. I have no doubt about that.

The reason I doubt that he would walk is that he is under contract. Nobody seems to know the details of Belichick's contract....but imagine he is in the last year. If he walks, the Patriots still have his rights...if he plays out this season, then he is a free agent and can go to say...the Dolphins and stick it to Kraft twice a year which seems like a very Belichickian move. I also wonder about McDaniels reneging on a head coaching job....but imagine if Bill told him, I have one year here and then I am out...so if you stay you will be in place to take over. It's rampant speculation, but I have been wondering if Belichick is out after this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone leaking should be dismissed with cause and argue with union if applicable about whether they are owed money and make sure you put it in public if leaker fights it. 2 hours ago, mannc said: This could be one of the most ridiculous takes in the history of TSW.

The guy is so good he has single handedly invented a new offensive position other teams are desperately trying to field....the huge, athletic, fast guy with great hands.

baskingridgebillsfan Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 The BradyBillb is seems to be coming to an end. Yes Brady is over 40 so the end is inevitable, but feels like it may end premature to the natural ending. good for the Bills.

I hate the Pats too, but the refusal to admit the obvious—just because it’s the Pats—is absurd. I can’t stand Gronk, but it’s not even debatable that he’s the best of all time at his position, and that, other than Brady, he’s been the greatest player on the longest reigning dynasty in NFL history. And he does not seem to be slowing down, despite the retirement talk. Edited June 9, 2018 by mannc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s laughable. Gronk’s postseason numbers alone (13 games) are nearly 1000 yards and 12 TDs. No one is even close, and there’s never been a TE who was as difficult to matchup with or who was such a key member of a great team for such a long period of time. And he’s still (arguably) in his prime. Edited June 9, 2018 by mannc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
