I guess it makes up for the Jets call and the Carolina call?
But in all honesty, bad refereeing has been rampant this year. IE BJE had a touchdown that wasnt today as well.
Anyone who thinks Gronk is injury prone is an idiot btw. Putting that out there now.
He has been struck with bad luck. Nothing more. If you ask me, the new rules, much like Merriweather once stated, has put the DBs at a disadvantage because of their size and weight, and results in tackling the knees. No DB can tackle a Gronkowski, Megatron, Graham, etc from the waist to shoulder area and expect to stop them.
Goodell needs to figure out how to protect these guys as well.
