I can see that, but with the shift toward more importance that the league is moving towards in reference to the TE position, plus the rising salary cap number, plus Gronk's production, that's really not saying all that much. I have a feeling TE salaries with their rising importance, will end up being nearly as gaudy as receiver salaries soon. Same with safeties versus cornerbacks.
I would call Gronk the Push Off King...two of his TDs on Saturday had blatant and obvious two hand push offs well beyond the 5 yards. Of course Branch can get that name also after his push off.
Did your green tinted glasses allow you to see the Denver CB holding Branch's arm for about 10 yards before Branch freed himself?
You can call them whatever you like, they still are the best TE duo in the NFL and this is 2 years into their careers... Like them or not, you know (and I know) that we would trade Keller for either guy in a heartbeat.
how bout bone-swallowing pollack and border-jumping, pillow-biting beaneater? I know, a little verbose...
