Gronk retires

He was an impressive player.

I don't care about either of them. Aside from their coach, I wouldn't think their team would have been very successful. And Gronk? Good, maybe he can focus on golf.


Can Deshaun Watson play better for the Browns, than Baker Mayfield would have? ... Now the Games count.

The thing I remember most about Gronk was that elbow drop on that guy on the sidelines during a Bills game. Punk move, never respected him after that.

Great career. Time to relax. Take a few with you. Get a massage and relax.

I’m sure Belichick has road side assistance.

Well, they did win a Super Bowl against the Falcons years back when he was injured for the playoffs. He's a wheel, an important one, but they have plenty of other wheels.

During his short career he was the most dominant TE i've ever seen. Just an absolute beast in the paint. No one has ever been able to make as many catches in the paint as gronk in such a short time.

HOF career in my mind.

But didn't they have that great murderer TE then? wink


Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.

Some might say that he didn't have a long enough career to be in the Hall .... but if Terrell Davis can get in with 4 dominant years, (and 3 pretty bad years) then Gronk certainly belongs, as well.

Hernandez was out of football after 2012.

No, Aaron Hernandez was long gone by Super Bowl 50 (the 2016 season). He last played in the 2012 season (he died a few months after that Super Bowl, in prison).

Which still begs the question, how the heck did they come back to beat the Falcons down 28-3 without Gronk late in the 3rd quarter? Ugh, you'll never live that down Atlanta. Sorry.

No doubt. Arguably, the greatest TE of all time.

The GOAT QB throwing passes to the GOAT TE... Hopefully that'll be us or darn near close over the next 10 years.

He was great, but I still think of Tony Gonzales as the GOAT

I certainly feel Gronk rates somewhere in the top 5. But both Gates and Gonzalez rank in there too. I'm not ready to put Gronk ahead of either one of those two.

Gronk was the best all around TE of all time, in my opinion.

I do not think Gates or Gonzalez were much in the way of in-line blocking. Gronk was the best, in my opinion.

Loved Ditka, John Mackey, and Ozzie, though.

Good Riddance. I DESPISE the Cheatriots and anything related to them.

If it isn't Orange and Brown it doesn't matter.
