Tape Never Lies: Difficulties defending Patriots’ Gronk & Hernando
Tape Never Lies: Difficulties defending Patriots’ Gronk & Hernando
Another great article from Alen Dumonjic about just how effective Gronk and Hernando are. The truth is that while it hurts to lose Hernando for however long, losing Gronk would have a far greater effect on the offense. He’s really the hub of what they do, and while Hernando is a great weapon whoever takes his snaps will benefit just as much from Gronk.
We’re so spoiled… Oh no, we might only have one dominating tight end for the next few weeks. What are we going to have to do? Throw to Chad Ochocinco more? Woah is us! Poor Patriots fans.

NFP/Bowen: Is there a game plan to stop Brady and the Patriots?
NFP/Bowen: Is there a game plan to stop Brady and the Patriots?
Matt Bowen isn’t sure how to stop the Patriots offense, spefically Gronk and Hernando.
So, how do you handle this? Working against Hernandez, I would go with a FS (with cover skills) or a nickel corner. Aren’t many strong safeties that are going to match him athletically and a LB isn’t going to cut it. With Gronkowski? Have to get hands on him at the line of scrimmage or play with a Mike Backer in Cover 2 that can run—and hit down the field. But again, I’m reaching here for an answer.
