This eye for an eye mentality represents the worst of our society, IMO.

Douchbaggery is sine qua non to the Patriots, so that stupid monkey's cheap shot pissed me off but really wasn't a surprise. The fact that he felt compelled to do it in a game they were up 20 in and to a rookie no less is just the icing on the entire New England franchise soggy biscuit. I just can't WAIT until Brady retires and that fanbase can stop pretending to give a crap about football and go back to basketball and baseball.

Must be Mr. Rogers hood, because they are quite forgiving of those who assault their neighbors.

I hope we take the low road and win the game. I'm sick of this team being manhandled and pushed around. The whole bully thing Rex was building never came to fruition.

Okay dude.  I get your point.  But taking cheap shots at any opponent is classless and counterproductive.  You know how to make you opponent afraid of playing you?  You play a sound, physical game, and you BEAT THE CRAP OUT OF THEM....on the scoreboard!

 

Get the hell out of here with the targeting cheap-shot nonsense.

Steelers and Pats are the definition of classless. They are also two of the most consistently good franchises. Sometimes playing with an edge is what makes a team winners. Often that’s how you do beat the crap out of opponents. It’s not politically correct, and in today’s NFL no one wants to hear it, but it’s the reality.

Me, neither.  But I've been thinking about this "outrage" I'm seeing from so many fans.

 

Let's turn the tables.

 

Let's say Gronk talked **** before the game (something Patriots* never do, by the way).  Then put Gronk on the ground, defenseless.  Then have Tre White lay one on Gronk.

 

Tre White would INSTANTLY AND FOREVER be a cult hero on this site.  People would be saying, "yeah, Gronk .. talk **** next time and see what happens."

 

I guarantee it.

I must be of the Few.

For me ?  Not CooL Ever  Anyone Period

One of the things i do like about McD football is the Team discipline. They need to toughen up. nothing more

well if was exactly and eye for an eye it would be fine actually. But is usually a seemingly unbalanced or unfair result.
Team should rally around each other. But within the confines of the rules. and that is my issue. the rules are not clear or consistent, and or the rule are not effectively enforced consistently

[Fadingpain]

Been a lot of talk about the Gronk incident.

 

Proper retribution here is to hit him in a knee with an intent to injure, and actually injure him so he is out for the NE playoff run.

 

That is a proper punishment.

 

If I was BB, I would sit Gronk in the Bills game.

 

Regarding the OP:  I was hoping "the hood" meant guys all around the league; if it just means the Bills, that is disappointing.

If BB sits Gronk, Brady should be next up on the list...

Looks like the team is done talking about it, for better or worse.

 

FTA:  

Orchard Park, NY - The Bills are ready to be done with the Rob Gronkowski hit. 

Sean McDermott and his players had their chance Wednesday to address the one-game suspension Gronkowski received for cheap shotting Tre'Davious White in Sunday's loss to the Patriots. 

McDermott flatly declined. "I'm not going there," he said. 

[YoloinOhio]

The reason McD and Hyde didn’t want to discuss it is with the media is because they don’t want the refs on the lookout to flag them for the tiniest things while they simply even defend Gronk  on 12/24. If they are all talking a big game about “retribution” that’s like putting a bulls eye on themselves. No one knows what they all discuss behind closed doors. That’s also why I think Hyde was pissed that Ryan Clark decided to broadcast Tre’s text on ESPN.

 The risk of potentially losing a game check for retaliation and instigating brawl doesn't make sense. Keep your poise and see them back on the field in a three weeks.  If you knew the worst you were going to get was a 10K fine that's one thing but to lose a 

100k -500K game check ?  

 

I forget who the Dolphins were playing earlier this year, Kiko Alonso blasted a player after he slid feet first, the O-lineman blasted Alonso hard to the ground twice. That’s the kind of thing some of the Bills defenders should have done to Gronkowski after his cheap shot. IMO, by not retailiating, it made the Bills look weak, especially playing at home.

That was Joe Flacco, who was giving himself up during a run.  Kiko hit Flacco as he was sliding down.  Cost Kiko $9K and no suspension.

Good point and probably the right way to look at it.

The Olineman you reference was right next to Kiko when the play happened and probably about 70-100 lbs bigger than Kiko... in this case Poyer was the one right next to Gronk, he is about 60 lbs lighter, 6 inches shorter ... he shoved him and if you wanted more all you would have gotten was more shoves. He couldn’t even get in his face ... it would be more like getting in his chest at the height difference. Also, Gronk was on his sideline and simply walked right off the field after it happened.  Flacco was in the middle of the field. Not sure if we expect the Bills players to follow him to the Pats bench...

 

I’m pretty sure if Kiko did that to our QB, Richie or someone would have reacted the same if they saw it. Just two different scenarios.

Absolutely, also coaching suicide for McD if he says anything otherwise.

 

Every coach should ask himself "would Rex say this?"

Have mentioned it before but from my perspective the “whole hood” was far away on the other sideline and didn’t even see what happened. The guys who were there reacted as much as they could without getting suspended themselves for fighting (Hughes and Poyer). Preston was the only one who saw it and did nothing but wave over the ref. Hyde was in the middle of his own fight with Amendola. If you want a bunch of our guys getting suspended too, I guess that’s your call. I don’t think it’s the same as hockey. We all know the Bills would get slammed by the league if they started fighting Gronk. Damned if you do damned if you don’t. I prefer going out the next game and make him pay on the field  for what he did, as legally as possible. 

 

I'm with Yolo on this one. The players didn't get to see the replays like us.

Please explain how it is dumb rhetoric? 

 

Fact: The entire Bills roster watched A Williams get a blind side cheap shot by Landry last year

Fact: No one even came close to getting in Landrys face or giving a shot back to him, legal or illegal, in that game or the game after

Fact: That proves they are soft kitties

 

Fact: The entire Bills roster watched Gronk cheap shot a downed Tre White

Fact: No one even came close to doing anything to Gronk (hyde maybe got in his face?) immediately after the hit, didnt do ANYTHING to stick up for their best defensive player

Fact: That proves the are still soft kitties

 

how is this even debatable? 

 

I'm gonna step out on a limb here, but I suspect the guys rushing the passer didn't see the hit.

Alright, I agree. There is no better taunt in the world than the old “SCOREBOARD!”. 

 

unfortunately for us though, when we play the Pats in a couple weeks, I have little faith that we can even keep the score close.  The NE fans will be the ones yelling scoreboard. 

 

We cant compete with the Pats, and then they rub it in even worse by intentionally hurting our players. Talk about adding injury to insult. 

 

That said, I guess we wait til next year? Hopefully no one gets horribly injured in the meantime.

Rex TRIED to build a bully...and you are right, it did not work because those "bullies" all just sat back and watched their teammate take a cheap shot and did NOTHING

 

It is one thing to say you are building a bully...it is something else entirely to do it. See: Steelers. You want to cheap shot Antonio Brown, here you go baby, WHAM!!!!!! 

 

Professional organization handling business = Steelers

 

Rinky Dink Clown Show Organization NOT handling business = Bills 

 

From what I remember Cinci laid out AB in the Endzone on a TD catch and no one did anything.

 

From what I remember Jube Jube laid out Burfect and stood over him and no one did anything.
