Gronk
Gronk
First he stays with a block after his teammate had scored and drove his opponent into the ground seven yards out of the end zone. No one told Gronk the play had been over for a while. Then he scores in an inspired "I will not be denied" catch and run hurdling over two defenders. He's a tough competitor and he never murders anyone. How can you not like this guy.

One for Unsportsmanlike like conduct and one for taunting.

Re: Gronk
Sergio Brown got exactly what he deserved.
The game was only in question just before halftime...bizarro
That was one helluva team effort rushing attack.
Maybe 'the Beast' should begin calling itself the Gronk
Hey .. Russ Francis was a regular here at one time ...

Re: Gronk
Russ Francis, haven't heard his name in a while. Back in his day I was a kid and the players were like super heroes (at least to me).

Never gets the credit he is due from the NFL or commentators.

Francis quaffed some serious pilsners with us back before they blew out the walls on the K-bar to create Mahogany.

Gronk would likely Snoboard ... in keeping with his devastation inclination

Re: Gronk
Zebra's should have called off setting penalties with the taunting one on Brown. Would have sent the "we're watching you message without penalizing either team. Brown should have been flagged for all the in game taunting he was doing. If you are going to yap it up, at least be able to back it up!SnoBrdr wrote:Act I think they said there were two penalties.Bubba wrote:Was he flagged for "excessive blocking"?freeski wrote:First he stays with a block after his teammate had scored and drove his opponent into the ground seven yards out of the end zone.

Re: Gronk
in teh second video it looks like the defender grabs the jersey and attempts to give gronk a whip around as he lets up initially, then gronk pushes him away and plows him into the ground...Dickc wrote:I am still surprised Colts # 21 got up after taking all of Gronk to the head in the end zone.

Re: Gronk
Geoff, Thanks.
MH: Yes, I think you're right. Earlier in the game the same guy whipped Gronk on the sideline and sent him flying waaay off the field. Good observation.

Re: Gronk
In an earlier play while blocking, Gronk took a shot to the face, helmet flew and his lip was bloodied.
'Lucky' Vontae Davis took the retaliation.
Seeing blood sets some guy's off
Sergio Brown yaps more than Rodney Harrison ever did
