Thanks, Gronk! The championship round just got a lot less exciting.

His hit was stupid yesterday and deserved a suspension. You just can't let guys take cheap shots that could hurt someone and not punish the act. It was very stupid and untimely for Gronk owners, but stupidity must be dealt with.

It just looks bad after A.J. Green got no suspension for throwing punches. Either the NFL suspends everyone who does stupid things like this or not at all. It has to be fair and consistent punishments and we haven't seen that this week. Let's see if Gronk appeals and when it gets applied.

he appealed. Guy he hit is in concussion protocol. Gronk should sit out as long as the guy he hurt if not longer.

Years ago (many) I had a teacher that allowed re-grading your papers. If you could argue why you deserved a B+ instead of a B, the teacher would consider it. However, as part of this process, the teacher reserved the right to LOWER your grade if he found additional errors.

Maybe upon appeal, the NFL should reconsider the evidence and stick Gronk with a two-game ban.

How do Juju and Iloka get the same suspension as Gronk when their hits were football plays before the whistle, while Gronk's was clear cheap shot after the whistle? SMH

It's the same penalty that Danny Trevathian got for almost killing Ty Montgomery. And one more game than AJ Green got for a back street brawl with Jalen Ramsey. It's ridiculous.

A strong commissioner would have set the tone for plays like Gronk had early in the year. Instead he's suspended Zeke for 6 games and Trevathian for 1 game and Gronk for one game. It makes no sense.

Sick of thugs like Gronkowski ruining my fantasy season. Something wrong with these people.
