Davenport & Onyemata

Mamba said

Yes, Gronk is an excellent blocker. For a tight end. You guys are acting like he’s Anthony Munoz or something.

Blocking Marcus Davenport is a difficult task for any elite Tackle in the league. And a near-impossible task for Gronk.

Davenport did what we should’ve expected him to do - manhandle the guy.

Hey I'm with you. Ideally you don't want your TE manned up against a beast like Dav. If that's where Gronk is now then the staff should've never put him in that position. But Gronk has routinely gone man to man with DEs in the past. He did it last year against us. Stoned Cam a few times.

I'm not saying it was every play like a Tackle but the Pats and Bucs regularly trusted Gronk to take care of a DE mano a mano.
