Message: [QUOTE="Rocktheworld, post: 2540405, member: 5037"] Per the prescribed rules, sure it wasn’t “clean” in the sense that a helmet contacted a helmet. Anyone watching the play can see that Jax player turned his head away, side of his helmet contacting, and most of the forceful contact was made with the shoulder closer to Gronks shoulder. I think it was more so the angle of the impact rather than the force itself that shook Gronk up. Doesn’t take a huge punch to the chin to achieve the torque on the brain required to alter consciousness. And I guarantee you (especially) Gronk and most offensive players would rather someone go high than go at their knees. Not really disputing the call, before you take it that way [/QUOTE]
