Rob Gronkowski is critical of the idea that the NFL might ban more types of tackles. Just a few days ago, Tom Brady said the league was starting to be “more like flag football.”
However, Gronkowski questioned whether his former Patriots and Buccaneers teammates should be making such complaints.
“You’re the quarterback. I mean, it’s flag football for you, man,” Gronkowski said with a laugh on TV. adams show
. “Some of them are your last year, but they barely touch you. … All the rules are in your favor, Tom.”Gronkowski appeared on “Up & Adams” this week to discuss potential rule changes in the NFL, including the idea that the league could ban “hip drop” tackles. Gronkowski disagreed, saying there’s only so much defense you can do at the position.
“The NFL has gotten too soft right now,” Gronkowski said. “I think it should still be allowed. “You really don’t see that, if you’re in that position, you have to do what you have to do to bring someone down. “
Brady made some strong comments about the current officiating situation in the NFL on the latest episode of “Let’s Go!” This week’s podcast. In a conversation with co-host Jim Gray, Brady took issue with salary penalties that wouldn’t have been flagged years ago.
“Football is a sport and there’s a physical element to all of it. … “There’s a lot of people who want it to be less physical and more like flag football, which is going to be in the Olympics in 2028 . Maybe football will turn into flag football for a while,” Brady said.
The NFL has recently drawn attention to “hip drop” tackles (where the defender grabs the ball carrier and then drops their weight) after Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith was injured in a game last week. The league is reportedly considering banning tackles this upcoming offseason.
