Gronk was usually their number 1 large receiver…pats always had fast little slot receivers, Edelman, welker and amandola, he was the a nightmare matchup, but not bc defenses were busy covering other players..it’s bc he was just a monster on his own…they would double him on Defense…
@@DNReacts TEs like Gronkowski and Jimmy Graham literally expanded the endzones with their size and athleticism, and their value is irreplaceable in the red zone. Huge guys with incredible hands and the ability to make huge plays. Of course it also helps that these guys had two of the greatest QBs of all time (Gronk with Brady and Graham with Brees)
Historically, there were tight ends that were basically just extra offensive linemen and then tight ends who were basically only effective at catching passes (this is changing in the modern game to a degree). Gronk was S tier elite at both
Gronk was an unbelievable blocker, that just doesn't make as many highlight reels. That seam route that he ran so many times was one of the most awesome plays in football, and I don't even like the Pats. 😂
Gronkowski also went on to play with Brady on the Buccaneers and added more numbers after this video came out. He was also one of the best run blocking tight ends of all time. They are reciver/lineman hybrids, Gronkowski skills as a receiver just out shined his blocking highlights.
Saw this in the comments Tristan, absolutely crazy! We’ll have to come back and review this story too. He was incredible in these highlights for sure. Thanks for the comment, appreciate it
Arguably the best BLOCKING tight end ever! that's the stuff you don't see unless commentators focus on it. He was 6'6" and 265 pounds. What made him stand out was how he could move at that size. The closest comparison has been Travis Kelce, who's really a wide receiver. But various players of note have gone on record saying that as a blocker, Kelce was not in the same league as Gronk. In that Super Bowl win against the Rams, for examplel (the one near the end of the reel where Gronk caught the long pass down to the two), Gronk spent the entire game blocking Aaron Donald...who's considered possibly the best defensive lineman of all time. Gronk was such a gift to us all.
TBH, I don't know if Kelce is a good comparison, since Kelce's blocking is... eh. IMHO, Kittle or Goedert might be a better comparison.. not in terms of talent, but just in terms of being completely all-around the whole package. Although, that catch in the playoff game against the Cowboys last hear definitely had echos of Gronk in it, lmao.
Gronk is the greatest te of all time. He’s also one of the funniest personalities in the nfl which is surprising because bill belichick coaches his players to be competent. He was the face of the team and the nfl for years. I had so much fun watching him, Tom, and Jules tearing up teams when I was just a little kid ❤️
This is great, and I 100% get the personality 😂 could see it shining through on these clips. Seemed like such a character. Thanks for the comment, really appreciate it
Yes, Gronk was also a great blocking Tight End. They don't mention it much in this video because blocking doesn't typically make for very exciting highlights. If you search something like "Gronk run blocking" there are a few videos our there showing the other side of his game.
Gronk was one of the best receiving tight ends of all time, but he was also the best blocking tight end as well. Guys like Kelce are great they just don’t affect the game as much as Gronk did.
That whole one year in Tampa whirlwind is worth it’s own video to add supplemental context to Gronk, Brady, and a bunch of other vets that came together for one year to change an entire organization
Heard about this in the comments, absolutely crazy! Definitely something we’ll look to return to and cover that part of his story. Thanks for the info and comment, really appreciate it 🙏
Gronk also suffered several injuries during his career that forced him to miss quite a few games. You might notice the brace on his arm and knee as a result. If he stayed as healthy as one can in the NFL his stats would be even more impressive, which is a scary thought.
As a life long NFL fan I just want to say bravo fellas. You guys have really gotten a great grasp on the game in a short time. Excited to see the 2023 Season. LFG Chargers ⚡️
My thoughts exactly. There are many times where I can see D has done his homework. If you continue to watch and learn, I promise you will see why this is the greatest game on the planet for a spectator.
For the "are most tight ends built like that?" question... yes and no. 6'6, 265 is certainly big for a tight end, but not unheard of. The average is probably somewhere around 6'4, 250. I think what makes Gronkowski different is that in addition to his hands, body control, etc., is that he's the quintessential example at the position (either TE or WR) of using raw power to break tackles. Even if he's listed at 6'6, 265 he's one of those guys that just feels bigger than that because of his lumbering running style, and physical nature. It's very much a man among boys thing. He was also a mauler blocking. If there's a knock on him (which is nitpicking because he's probably the best tight end of all time) is that he got banged up A LOT and missed a lot of time with injuries, which isn't too surprising considering how much he looks for contact. But he'd always just come back and produce, he's by far the best red zone threat in TE history (catching touchdowns closer in to the end zone). This video didn't show it but he came out of retirement to win another Super Bowl with Tom Brady in Tampa Bay. If you compare him to someone like Travis Kelce (who most consider second best TE alongside Gronkowski, as well as some arguing the best), he's 6'5, 255, so not much smaller, but they play completely different games. Kelce uses his smarts and route running quite a bit more to produce, his calling card is finding soft pockets in zone coverage.
Tight ends are generally a slight downsize from an offensive tackle, with the hands and speed and agility of a wide receiver. Pretty much right in the middle of the two roles and honestly one of the most underrated positions
Underrated... and underpaid. I've half jokingly said many times if I was an NFL GM, I'd rather have a Kelce and a Kittle over a Tyreek Hill (who makes more than both TEs combined) and just say to the OC, "you got two elite TEs, figure it out". Pretty much what the Packers seem to be aiming to do this year with the two rookies, Love, and the two RBs, lmao.
Gronk was a fantastic blocking TE but most casual fans don’t consider blocking to be highlight material so it wasn’t shown. He truly was a complete TE, capable of doing anything you would want a TE to do.
10:58 - “I don’t know if he’ll ever see this” My best friend just happens to know not only Rob but the whole Gronk family. My friend met the brother Gordy when he was playing Independant Baseball for Lake Erie Crushers (near Cleveland). From there, he became god friends with Gordy, when the Gronk family comes to Cle, my friend’s fam & Gronks usually meet & go out somewhere. I’ll forward this vid to my friend to forward to Gordy & Gronk…… sooo who knows💁 ya might actually see a comment 😜
They usually don’t show blocks for highlights unless we’re looking at Offensive Linemen but Gronk was MAN amongst boys when it came to blocking. He’s got to be one of the biggest Cheat Codes not only in Madden games but in real life. The video didn’t show it but he followed Brady to the Buccaneers and got his 4 and last Super Bowl ring. I think he was a few Touchdowns and yards shy of 10,000 receiving yards and 100 Touchdowns
Gronk took a lot of pride in his blocking. A lot of hybrid TEs are about the catching, not the blocking. Gronk was about whatever the play called for. In the Seahawks superbowl, the Pats prepped for that play.
The tight end blocking vs. receiving question was a good one. Gronk was equally impressive at both - truly an extra lineman in the run game. Best all-around TE ever.
Gronk! What a legend. Love and appreciated by all football fans, not just Patriot and Buc fans. He personally ruined many Sunday's for me and that superbowl win against the Seahawks is still too painful to watch. ♠
I have loved watching Gronk! He is so amazing! Off the field he's pretty wild too. Loves to have a good time. I think most tight ends are big. The good ones. They are used to block as well as receive!
Thanks for the info and comment Mark, really appreciate it! Could definitely tell from these highlights what a character he was one and off the pitch! Loved this one
I'm loving the reactions, guys. It's been fun watching y'all pick up more of the game and start to see how the game develops. I'd like to point out that Gronk came into the league in 2010 retired for the first time in 2018 (which is where the vid stops). He was a Pro Bowler 5x and the seasons he wasn't a Pro Bowler were seasons in which he had devastating injuries including a torn up knee, too many concussions, and a broken arm (twice) and a vertebral fracture...and this is only a partial list. The dude played at an incredibly injured throughout his career and STILL played at the highest level. That's why he's simply The Gronk.
Lifelong Pats fan here. Yes, Gronk was a pass catching TE. In the redzone (20 yards and in), he was unstoppable. He caught so many TDs off fades, back shoulders, corner routes, dig routes, hit the goal line and turn, you name it. He has so many plays where he's hit and just drags a guy for 5 extra yards, which is so huge in football. As the years went on, Gronk got more injuries and didn't have the same speed. What excelled his career was his run blocking. He could hit anyone on the defense and push them back. It didnt matter if it was a D-lineman, linebacker, DB, all were bullied. Gronk is a top 5 all-time pass catching TE. But what makes him the best IMO, is he was the best run blocker TE. As a defense, you had to account for him, no matter what the play was, run, pass, and heaven help you if play action has been working.
They don't show his blocking higlights but that ability is part of what makes him so great. Even at his older age, he was basically a 6th lineman for the Buccs in their super bowl run, pretty much erasing guys like chase young
Thanks Jack, we’ll come back for his blocking as a huge favourite part of the game for us! Thanks for the comment, really appreciate it. Have a great day 🙏
Can you guys react to Brian Dawkins also known as weapon X. One of the hardest hitting safeties of all time. Second recommendation is night train lane, he doesn’t have much highlights though because he played in the 50’s
I love the concept of this channel. Two sports fans who decided to share their academic pursuit to become proficient in foreign sports. It's fun to watch you guys become true knowledgeable fans of American Football and Baseball.
Tight ends must block like linemen on most plays, and catch passes like wide receivers on pass plays. Therefore, they are always bigger than wide receivers because of the need for them to block defensive linemen a lot.
Gronk was the best at both receiving AND blocking of all time. The nfl just doesn't view blocking as highlight worthy but he was extremely important in that part of the game too.
Blocking was unappreciated by a lot of the population in America for a long time, still is really. Every single time I've seen British people react to American football they love the blocking aspect of the game. Weird little thing I've noticed. You seem to have to learn more about the game to appreciate it as an American fan, then they appreciate it. British people just seem to immediately notice it and love that part of the game. Wonder why that is.
Tight ends play on either side of the offensive line and directly next to the tackles. Tight ends are considered "hybrid players" because they are a cross between a wide receiver and an offensive lineman. Because they play next to the other offensive linemen, they are very frequently called on to block, especially on running plays. However, because they are eligible receivers, they may also catch passes. The position known as the "H-back" is a tight end who lines up behind the line of scrimmage, and is thus counted as one of the four "backs", but their role is otherwise similar to that of other tight ends
You should check out a vid of his blocks. He was a Beast He also went with Tom to Tampa and won a superbowl like it was no big deal Dude was the most fun and funniest player off the field for sure
Heard about this in the comments, absolutely crazy! Definitely something we’ll look to return to and cover that part of his story. Thanks for the info and comment, really appreciate it 🙏
5:08 by God, he’s figured it out 😮. Crazy to see how far y’all’ve come with your knowledge of American Football. Now you guys are providing the expert insight.
If you are this big and can catch, you will be a tight end. Then there's this guy. Wide receiver hands with excellent athleticism, all with being a really large big dude.
New to the channel through watching Derrick Henry video and I love how you guys don’t over talk the video, and when you do stop the video it’s not a whole series 🙄 love this!!! Straight to the video and out of there 🔥🔥🔥🔥 #SUBBED
Great reaction, thanks for doing Gronk! he had lots of injuries and missed some playing time and still is considered the goat tight end. Make sure you do the Patriots 28-3 come back against Falcons in Super bowl 51. Greatest come back ever.
GRONK SPIKE! Yes, this is the Superbowl where the Seahawks just had to hand the ball to Marshawn Lynch. In terms of build, yes, Gronk is the ideal TE build, but 6'6 265 is tough to come by. Sometimes Forwards (6'6ish, thick for rebounding) in College Basketball who cant make it to the NBA, but have great hands, with a similar build, will be recruited by NFT teams, invited to try out as a TE. Sometimes these basketball players try to make this transition on their own too. Gronk in his prime was unstoppable. They don't show as much of his blocking, but he was an absolute bulldozer. Love the reaction.
Tight end started as blockers (tight to the end) who were allowed to catch. Now they're receivers who sometimes block. Gronk was a great blocker. He was huge, fast enough, and his secret weapon? World class hands.
Note on that seahawks superbowl, yes that was the iconic, "they shouldve ran the ball" game lol. Im a patriots fan, so it may seem biased, but as a football fan also, that pass play that the seahawks ran, works 95% of the time. Its whats called a "pick play". Essentially they line up 2 receivers on one side of the field. When the ball is snapped, the innermost receiver runs up to the defender, and "sets a pick". So without illegally holding him, the receiver creates a blockage with himself and the defender. This blockage allows the outermost receiver to run inside that blockage, cutting off himself from the defender, becoming wide open. For a small amount of yardage, it ALMOST always works. Malcolm butler is the defender who caught the interception, but the true MVP was the other defender, brandon browner, who recognized the pick play immediately, and instructed malcom on what to do, and how to defend it. On top of all that, the patriot's defense practiced that specific play at least twice with every single one of their defenders. Its really comes down to the preperation of the patriots defense at the time. Side note, with all that being said, if i remember correctly, it was only 2nd down, meaning they couldve actually ran marshawn two more times, and i seriously doubt we woudlve stopped that. Although dont'a hightower did straight up lay marshawn out on the first down run play to him, and maybe that influenced pete Carroll's decision to attempt the pick play. Sorry for the long comment, but I've been defending the patriots supposed "lucky" win over the seahwaks for years 😂😂 Loved the reaction, and love seeing people from other countries getting seriously interested in american football.
The highlights are all about his receiving skills. But he was probably the best blocking TE at the same time in his prime. That's why I have to give him the nod for all-time best Tight End. There's other guys who are on his level in the receiving game, but they're all average blockers at best, and some of them are really just bigger WRs. Gronk was like having a third Tackle in the run game. Everyone looks at the passing game with the Patriots in general, with Brady being there. But through the 2010s they were quietly one of the best rushing teams in the league. Gronk was a huge part of that. Gritty player too. That big catch against the Rams in the Super Bowl, he was dealing a severe bruise in his thigh he sustained earlier in the game. After the game, while everyone else was out celebrating, he was getting blood drained from his leg, literally crying the pain was so bad. But he held out until after the game for that, and made the biggest play of the game.
One other factoid that a lot of people miss, but Belicheck, Brady and many others have commented on how smart Gronk was about football. He came across as a goofball party animal kid, but he was also a borderline genius when it came to football
Dude grew up in Buffalo Bills territory and haunted our organization for years. He was taken 43rd overall in the draft. Right before he was picked the Bills took Torell Troup with the 42nd pick. Troup was out of the NFL after 3 seasons, and well, you see what Gronk did.
Great job, guys. Gronk was the best blocking TE also. That's where he is separate from guys like Travis Kelce, Tony Gonzalez and Antonio Gates IMO (all Hall of Fame quality TEs). Although, nothing compares to him careening through an opposing secondary like a runaway train. I was at the game where he was throwing Bears players around at the beginning of the video. Quite impressive in person. Watching him signing autographs at Training Camp was fun too. He was as affable and jovial as you'd expect....and up close you really get to see how BIG he is, more informative than just seeing stats. Unicorn.
Hey guys I’m from Michigan, USA and I love your channel! I have to be honest and say that this year I became a huge soccer (football) fan specifically the premier league! I wish we had something similar to the relegation/promotion that you guys have over there, I think it’s really cool! Was just wondering which premium league team is your guys’??
Thank you, we really appreciate that 🙏 So, Nick is Manchester United and Damo is Liverpool. And those two teams hate each other 😂 Who did you settle on?
I'm sure other people have answered these questions, but just in case: 6:05 That was indeed the Malcolm Butler game. The Seahawks had 3 downs and all they had to do was hand the ball to Marshawn Lynch and let him gain 1 yard. The play shown immediately before was the game-losing interception they threw instead. 10:50 Gronk is an exceptional blocker for a TE, which can be a HUGE asset since it basically allows the offense to be equally effective running and passing out of the same formation. If you have 1 blocking TE and 1 receiving TE, it's pretty easy for the opposing defense to know what kind of play to expect before you even snap the ball. Unfortunately the Patriots never really had a quality running game to capitalize on that. 11:07 His size is pretty typical for a TE. What makes Gronk special is that even the great TEs usually specialize in either being fast/agile receivers with great hands, or big bruisers who are good at blocking and hard to tackle once they have the ball. Gronk is one of the few to be legitimately great at both. As you correctly point out at 2:16, it probably didn't hurt that Tom Brady was the one throwing him the ball...
If you want to see more blocking in a highlight reel watch George Kittles highlights, those videos typically have blocking in them because Kittle is a savage when it comes to blocking
Yea, tight ends usually are built like this. Their mission definitely includes blocking like a lineman....its like a fullback blocking for a halfback. Sometimes you get a dominant fullback that great running the ball
Thank you for the comment and the suggestion James, really appreciate this, will check it’s on the watch list. We run regular polls on our Discord for all members to have a say in what videos we do next if you’re not already on there 🙏
Tight ends usually come in two flavors, blocking and receiving. Gronk was the only TE I've seen who was dominant as a blocker and receiver. Look at the size of his hands.
They didn’t even put in him being at the baseball game and hitting a ball with the Lombardi trophy and denting it😂 that was one of his best off field moments
Not only was Gronk one of the best receiving Tight Ends of all time, he was probably the best blocking Tight End of all time. A lot of people who didn't follow the Patriots closely, or don't pay attention to the finer details of the game miss this. Gronk was ELITE at all parts of the TE position. Absolute lock for a 1st ballot entry into Canton.
Gronk is the best TE of all time. The position has changed to be more receiving now like Kelce or Andrews but Gronk while good at receiving was an insanely good blocker as well. He was utilized for that quite often too
@@BobBob-eb4io Sorry but no. Gonzalez is nowhere close to Gronk as a blcoker. We can argue receiving ability all day with an easy half dozen TEs but none of those guys come close to Gronk as a blocker.
That Seahawks super was the game when they should have handed it off to lynch but they passed it instead and butler intercepted it on the goal line. I was crying tears of joy when that happened hahaha
Excellent TE only if he was injured less he would’ve had a longer career. Check out Tony Gonzalez (played 17 seasons missed only 2 games jus as a beast as well)
More and more fit the Gronk model: big but athletic and fast. In the old days, tight ends blocked more often than received. But there was less passing overall back then.
Shout out to tight ends! I played tight end in high school. It’s a pretty tough position as you’re expected to be able to block and catch. Some other great tight ends in recent memory are Tony Gonzalez, Antonio Gates, and Greg Olsen with the current best being Travis Kelce, George Kittle, and Mark Andrews. Great watch guys!
Super Bowl 49 was that Super Bowl. Instead of running it on the goal line we threw it. Definitely a nightmare of a memory. Still I have nothing but admiration for Gronk. Genuinely one of the nicest guys around the football field.
One of the most fun players to watch, not even a Patriots fan. This video doesn't go far enough to show that he also went to Tampa Bay with Tom Brady and won another Superbowl! You guys will like Travis Kelce if you're enjoying Tight Ends!
Heard about this in the comments (Tampa), absolutely crazy! Definitely something we’ll look to return to and cover that part of his story. Thanks for the info and comment, really appreciate it 🙏
The Marshawn Lynch no-handoff gets blown way out of proportion. The odds of throwing an interception on a 1 yard slant are no worse than Marshawn fumbling if they'd handed off to him. It was poorly executed, but there's no guarantee that a handoff wins it with any more certainty.
someone also crunched the numbers and found that through out that season, Seattle had more success throwing it when that close then they did handing it off to Marshawn Lynch. I think it was like a 70% success rate when throwing verses a 35% success rate when handing off.
And two years later, he and Brady did it again, with Tampa Bay. There will never be another Gronk. He WAS the best blocking tight end ever: Kelce is no comparison.
Most Tight ends are either massive guys who r great Blockers, or a little smaller and better at Recieving. But no one had ever seen a 6’7” 280 lbs guy who was this athletic. He was both one of the best blockers and receivers ever at his position
Also lots of Tight Ends were Blockers until the Patriots got Gronk and Hernandez. Hernandez was a little small but a better athlete and reciever… then Hernandez got charged with murdering 3/4 ppl and Gronk took over lol
As a seahawk fan that superbowl still hurts we were going for back to back championships. There were about 20 seconds left in the game and the seahawks had the ball down 4. The theory is the coach wanted to get the qb Russell wilson the superbowl mvp. I reccomend his highlights of you have not seen them yet
I’m a lifelong New England Patriots hater but I love Gronk. He even threatened to retire instead of accepting a trade to my Lions and I still love him. Just such a goof and a fantastic football player

This video didn't show it but he came out of retirement to win another Super Bowl with Tom Brady in Tampa Bay.
If you compare him to someone like Travis Kelce (who most consider second best TE alongside Gronkowski, as well as some arguing the best), he's 6'5, 255, so not much smaller, but they play completely different games. Kelce uses his smarts and route running quite a bit more to produce, his calling card is finding soft pockets in zone coverage.
Tight ends are generally a slight downsize from an offensive tackle, with the hands and speed and agility of a wide receiver. Pretty much right in the middle of the two roles and honestly one of the most underrated positions
Thanks for this context Sean, makes a lot of sense. Really appreciate it 🙏
TE and FB need more respect
Underrated... and underpaid. I've half jokingly said many times if I was an NFL GM, I'd rather have a Kelce and a Kittle over a Tyreek Hill (who makes more than both TEs combined) and just say to the OC, "you got two elite TEs, figure it out". Pretty much what the Packers seem to be aiming to do this year with the two rookies, Love, and the two RBs, lmao.

Gronk was a fantastic blocking TE but most casual fans don’t consider blocking to be highlight material so it wasn’t shown. He truly was a complete TE, capable of doing anything you would want a TE to do.
Makes perfect sense Alex, thank you for posting this comment, really appreciate it!
You guys got it again! Tight ends are generally 6’4”+ and 250lbs+ Gronk was huge even for a TE though about 6’7” 270! Massive lad
Wow, yes, that is massive, and definitely massive for a TE. Really appreciate the info and comment Ethan 🙏
@@DNReacts He was huge, but had great speed as well. A nightmare as a blocker and receiver. It's rare to have that combination.
@@DNReacts You asked about JJ Watt. He's 2 inches shorter and 20 lb more. Very similar builds, just large dudes.
10:58 - “I don’t know if he’ll ever see this”
My best friend just happens to know not only Rob but the whole Gronk family. My friend met the brother Gordy when he was playing Independant Baseball for Lake Erie Crushers (near Cleveland). From there, he became god friends with Gordy, when the Gronk family comes to Cle, my friend’s fam & Gronks usually meet & go out somewhere.
I’ll forward this vid to my friend to forward to Gordy & Gronk…… sooo who knows💁 ya might actually see a comment 😜
I can’t even begin to tell you how insane this would be! 🔥 I won’t get my hopes up but this would be a wow moment if it happened
They usually don’t show blocks for highlights unless we’re looking at Offensive Linemen but Gronk was MAN amongst boys when it came to blocking. He’s got to be one of the biggest Cheat Codes not only in Madden games but in real life. The video didn’t show it but he followed Brady to the Buccaneers and got his 4 and last Super Bowl ring. I think he was a few Touchdowns and yards shy of 10,000 receiving yards and 100 Touchdowns
Greatest TE of all time and probably the greatest TE name of all time. Gronkowski is just such a perfect name for that position.
Closing on in 20k! Keep up the great content, guys!
Thank you, we really appreciate your support and the comment 🙏
Gronk took a lot of pride in his blocking. A lot of hybrid TEs are about the catching, not the blocking. Gronk was about whatever the play called for.
In the Seahawks superbowl, the Pats prepped for that play.
Gronk was a great blocker.
The tight end blocking vs. receiving question was a good one. Gronk was equally impressive at both - truly an extra lineman in the run game. Best all-around TE ever.
We will have to check out his blocking game!

Man seeing yalls growth in understanding Football is amazing. Cant help but smile watching
Thanks James, love seeing this, really appreciate the support 🙏
Gronk! What a legend. Love and appreciated by all football fans, not just Patriot and Buc fans. He personally ruined many Sunday's for me and that superbowl win against the Seahawks is still too painful to watch. ♠
I also find it painful to watch even as an impartial viewer! Thanks for the comment, have a great day 🙏
What is so great about Gronk is he was that great at receiving but also the greatest blocking TE of all time.
Was not expecting this upload holy moly, big ups to you guys, love content as always 🔥
Thank you so much, really appreciate it 🔥 Hope you enjoy. Have a good day bud.
@@DNReacts same its 2am in nz and I don't mind watching it now 😂🫡
Perfect shout at 5:05
Tight ends are ultimate mismatches because the best ones have speed and power and you have to cover the wide recievers as well.
Thank you for this, really appreciate it 🙏
Gronk is one of the greatest blocking tight ends too . The highlights are mostly receiving because that’s what people love to see
We love the blocking side of the game. Wish the highlights had included more of this. Appreciate the comment
I watched pretty much every single game of this guys career. There are beasts, and then there is Gronk.
I have loved watching Gronk! He is so amazing! Off the field he's pretty wild too. Loves to have a good time. I think most tight ends are big. The good ones. They are used to block as well as receive!
Thanks for the info and comment Mark, really appreciate it! Could definitely tell from these highlights what a character he was one and off the pitch! Loved this one
I'm loving the reactions, guys. It's been fun watching y'all pick up more of the game and start to see how the game develops. I'd like to point out that Gronk came into the league in 2010 retired for the first time in 2018 (which is where the vid stops). He was a Pro Bowler 5x and the seasons he wasn't a Pro Bowler were seasons in which he had devastating injuries including a torn up knee, too many concussions, and a broken arm (twice) and a vertebral fracture...and this is only a partial list. The dude played at an incredibly injured throughout his career and STILL played at the highest level. That's why he's simply The Gronk.
Gronk was a willing and capable blocker. There were TEs that were better at blocking, but receiving is what brought the pay check.
Lifelong Pats fan here. Yes, Gronk was a pass catching TE. In the redzone (20 yards and in), he was unstoppable. He caught so many TDs off fades, back shoulders, corner routes, dig routes, hit the goal line and turn, you name it. He has so many plays where he's hit and just drags a guy for 5 extra yards, which is so huge in football.
As the years went on, Gronk got more injuries and didn't have the same speed. What excelled his career was his run blocking. He could hit anyone on the defense and push them back. It didnt matter if it was a D-lineman, linebacker, DB, all were bullied.
Gronk is a top 5 all-time pass catching TE. But what makes him the best IMO, is he was the best run blocker TE. As a defense, you had to account for him, no matter what the play was, run, pass, and heaven help you if play action has been working.
They don't show his blocking higlights but that ability is part of what makes him so great. Even at his older age, he was basically a 6th lineman for the Buccs in their super bowl run, pretty much erasing guys like chase young
Thanks Jack, we’ll come back for his blocking as a huge favourite part of the game for us! Thanks for the comment, really appreciate it. Have a great day 🙏

Can you guys react to Brian Dawkins also known as weapon X. One of the hardest hitting safeties of all time. Second recommendation is night train lane, he doesn’t have much highlights though because he played in the 50’s
Gronk was one of the greatest blockers at the tight end position the argument can be made that he is the best
Tony Gonzalez is another all time great tight end you should check out
Thanks C M, will check we’ve got him on the list. Should jump on our Discord if you haven’t already, got a thread set up just for NFL requests too 🙏
Gronk was a great blocker in the run game. They don't show it in the highlights but the announcers used to mention it during the games.
Other tight ends to check out Travis Kelce, George Kittle ,Tony Gonzalez , and from way back , Mike Ditka and John Mackey
Thanks Rodney, will check we’ve got these on our radar on the watch list. Have a great day 🙏
Best blocking tight end. All around beast
He was so good!
I love the concept of this channel. Two sports fans who decided to share their academic pursuit to become proficient in foreign sports. It's fun to watch you guys become true knowledgeable fans of American Football and Baseball.
Thanks Trevor, we really Appreciate your support 🙏
Tight ends must block like linemen on most plays, and catch passes like wide receivers on pass plays. Therefore, they are always bigger than wide receivers because of the need for them to block defensive linemen a lot.
Gronk was the best at both receiving AND blocking of all time. The nfl just doesn't view blocking as highlight worthy but he was extremely important in that part of the game too.
Love y’all keep up. Love y’all perspective and innocence towards excellence
Blocking was unappreciated by a lot of the population in America for a long time, still is really. Every single time I've seen British people react to American football they love the blocking aspect of the game. Weird little thing I've noticed. You seem to have to learn more about the game to appreciate it as an American fan, then they appreciate it. British people just seem to immediately notice it and love that part of the game. Wonder why that is.
Tight ends play on either side of the offensive line and directly next to the tackles. Tight ends are considered "hybrid players" because they are a cross between a wide receiver and an offensive lineman. Because they play next to the other offensive linemen, they are very frequently called on to block, especially on running plays. However, because they are eligible receivers, they may also catch passes. The position known as the "H-back" is a tight end who lines up behind the line of scrimmage, and is thus counted as one of the four "backs", but their role is otherwise similar to that of other tight ends
You should check out a vid of his blocks. He was a Beast
He also went with Tom to Tampa and won a superbowl like it was no big deal
Dude was the most fun and funniest player off the field for sure
Heard about this in the comments, absolutely crazy! Definitely something we’ll look to return to and cover that part of his story. Thanks for the info and comment, really appreciate it 🙏
5:08 by God, he’s figured it out 😮. Crazy to see how far y’all’ve come with your knowledge of American Football. Now you guys are providing the expert insight.
Thank you, we really appreciate this. Glad to know it’s showing our progress 🙏🔥 Have a great day
If you are this big and can catch, you will be a tight end. Then there's this guy. Wide receiver hands with excellent athleticism, all with being a really large big dude.
New to the channel through watching Derrick Henry video and I love how you guys don’t over talk the video, and when you do stop the video it’s not a whole series 🙄 love this!!!
Straight to the video and out of there 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Thank you, really appreciate your support. Welcome to the channel 🤝
The crazy part was Gronk was an amazing blocker and receiver most dominat TE in his prime and he retired by 31 so young
Shame he retired so young, but looks like he had a fantastic career. Thanks for the comment Matthew, we really appreciate it 🙏
Great reaction, thanks for doing Gronk! he had lots of injuries and missed some playing time and still is considered the goat tight end. Make sure you do the Patriots 28-3 come back against Falcons in Super bowl 51. Greatest come back ever.
Gronk has so many great plays that you don’t see a lot of his blocking and such. But he was good at that stuff too.
One of the best blocking tight ends too
Gronk was an EXCELLENT blocker
GRONK SPIKE! Yes, this is the Superbowl where the Seahawks just had to hand the ball to Marshawn Lynch. In terms of build, yes, Gronk is the ideal TE build, but 6'6 265 is tough to come by. Sometimes Forwards (6'6ish, thick for rebounding) in College Basketball who cant make it to the NBA, but have great hands, with a similar build, will be recruited by NFT teams, invited to try out as a TE. Sometimes these basketball players try to make this transition on their own too. Gronk in his prime was unstoppable. They don't show as much of his blocking, but he was an absolute bulldozer. Love the reaction.
Someone once said Gronk is the best Te in arguably history but if he wanted to he could gain 30 pounds and be an all pro tackle
Tight end started as blockers (tight to the end) who were allowed to catch. Now they're receivers who sometimes block. Gronk was a great blocker. He was huge, fast enough, and his secret weapon? World class hands.
Thanks for this info Scott, definitely saw a lot of this in this watch. Appreciate the comment 🙏
Note on that seahawks superbowl, yes that was the iconic, "they shouldve ran the ball" game lol. Im a patriots fan, so it may seem biased, but as a football fan also, that pass play that the seahawks ran, works 95% of the time. Its whats called a "pick play". Essentially they line up 2 receivers on one side of the field. When the ball is snapped, the innermost receiver runs up to the defender, and "sets a pick". So without illegally holding him, the receiver creates a blockage with himself and the defender. This blockage allows the outermost receiver to run inside that blockage, cutting off himself from the defender, becoming wide open. For a small amount of yardage, it ALMOST always works. Malcolm butler is the defender who caught the interception, but the true MVP was the other defender, brandon browner, who recognized the pick play immediately, and instructed malcom on what to do, and how to defend it. On top of all that, the patriot's defense practiced that specific play at least twice with every single one of their defenders. Its really comes down to the preperation of the patriots defense at the time.
Side note, with all that being said, if i remember correctly, it was only 2nd down, meaning they couldve actually ran marshawn two more times, and i seriously doubt we woudlve stopped that. Although dont'a hightower did straight up lay marshawn out on the first down run play to him, and maybe that influenced pete Carroll's decision to attempt the pick play.
Sorry for the long comment, but I've been defending the patriots supposed "lucky" win over the seahwaks for years 😂😂
Loved the reaction, and love seeing people from other countries getting seriously interested in american football.
Man I can’t wait for football season, will you guys livestream some football games come fall?
The highlights are all about his receiving skills. But he was probably the best blocking TE at the same time in his prime. That's why I have to give him the nod for all-time best Tight End. There's other guys who are on his level in the receiving game, but they're all average blockers at best, and some of them are really just bigger WRs. Gronk was like having a third Tackle in the run game.
Everyone looks at the passing game with the Patriots in general, with Brady being there. But through the 2010s they were quietly one of the best rushing teams in the league. Gronk was a huge part of that.
Gritty player too. That big catch against the Rams in the Super Bowl, he was dealing a severe bruise in his thigh he sustained earlier in the game. After the game, while everyone else was out celebrating, he was getting blood drained from his leg, literally crying the pain was so bad. But he held out until after the game for that, and made the biggest play of the game.
One other factoid that a lot of people miss, but Belicheck, Brady and many others have commented on how smart Gronk was about football. He came across as a goofball party animal kid, but he was also a borderline genius when it came to football
Dude grew up in Buffalo Bills territory and haunted our organization for years. He was taken 43rd overall in the draft. Right before he was picked the Bills took Torell Troup with the 42nd pick. Troup was out of the NFL after 3 seasons, and well, you see what Gronk did.
Gronk was no hybrid. Dude was the best receiving tight end in the league his whole career and as good a blocker as an O lineman
Great job, guys. Gronk was the best blocking TE also. That's where he is separate from guys like Travis Kelce, Tony Gonzalez and Antonio Gates IMO (all Hall of Fame quality TEs). Although, nothing compares to him careening through an opposing secondary like a runaway train. I was at the game where he was throwing Bears players around at the beginning of the video. Quite impressive in person. Watching him signing autographs at Training Camp was fun too. He was as affable and jovial as you'd expect....and up close you really get to see how BIG he is, more informative than just seeing stats. Unicorn.
Thank you! Really appreciate the comment 😊
He's one of those players that even if you're not a Patriots fan, you still liked Gronk.
Hey guys I’m from Michigan, USA and I love your channel! I have to be honest and say that this year I became a huge soccer (football) fan specifically the premier league! I wish we had something similar to the relegation/promotion that you guys have over there, I think it’s really cool! Was just wondering which premium league team is your guys’??
Thank you, we really appreciate that 🙏 So, Nick is Manchester United and Damo is Liverpool. And those two teams hate each other 😂 Who did you settle on?
@@DNReacts Manchester city. Had to ride the hype train 😂 so I guess we all hate each other then 👏🏻
I'm sure other people have answered these questions, but just in case:
6:05 That was indeed the Malcolm Butler game. The Seahawks had 3 downs and all they had to do was hand the ball to Marshawn Lynch and let him gain 1 yard. The play shown immediately before was the game-losing interception they threw instead.
10:50 Gronk is an exceptional blocker for a TE, which can be a HUGE asset since it basically allows the offense to be equally effective running and passing out of the same formation. If you have 1 blocking TE and 1 receiving TE, it's pretty easy for the opposing defense to know what kind of play to expect before you even snap the ball. Unfortunately the Patriots never really had a quality running game to capitalize on that.
11:07 His size is pretty typical for a TE. What makes Gronk special is that even the great TEs usually specialize in either being fast/agile receivers with great hands, or big bruisers who are good at blocking and hard to tackle once they have the ball. Gronk is one of the few to be legitimately great at both.
As you correctly point out at 2:16, it probably didn't hurt that Tom Brady was the one throwing him the ball...
If you want to see more blocking in a highlight reel watch George Kittles highlights, those videos typically have blocking in them because Kittle is a savage when it comes to blocking
Yea, tight ends usually are built like this. Their mission definitely includes blocking like a lineman....its like a fullback blocking for a halfback. Sometimes you get a dominant fullback that great running the ball
Gronk was a monster at blocking
Tony Gonzalez, Antonio Gates, and Travis Kelce are great TEs who have played recently that are worth a look.
Thank you for the comment and the suggestion James, really appreciate this, will check it’s on the watch list. We run regular polls on our Discord for all members to have a say in what videos we do next if you’re not already on there 🙏
Tight ends usually come in two flavors, blocking and receiving. Gronk was the only TE I've seen who was dominant as a blocker and receiver. Look at the size of his hands.
George kettle is a great blocking tight end and great receiving tight end
They didn’t even put in him being at the baseball game and hitting a ball with the Lombardi trophy and denting it😂 that was one of his best off field moments
Not only was Gronk one of the best receiving Tight Ends of all time, he was probably the best blocking Tight End of all time. A lot of people who didn't follow the Patriots closely, or don't pay attention to the finer details of the game miss this. Gronk was ELITE at all parts of the TE position. Absolute lock for a 1st ballot entry into Canton.
He also came back and played with Tom in Tampa Bay
Gronk is the best TE of all time. The position has changed to be more receiving now like Kelce or Andrews but Gronk while good at receiving was an insanely good blocker as well. He was utilized for that quite often too
Thanks Dylan, really appreciate the info and the comment 🙏
Toney Gonzalez is the best tight end of all time
Patriots put him in pass pro 1 on 1 against Khalil Mack in 2016, Mack's Defensive POY season, Gronk absolutely stoned Mack at the line.
@@BobBob-eb4io Sorry but no. Gonzalez is nowhere close to Gronk as a blcoker. We can argue receiving ability all day with an easy half dozen TEs but none of those guys come close to Gronk as a blocker.
@chonzen1764 none of those guys could get injured like gronk either. That's truly what holds gronk back from being the goat tight end
That Seahawks super was the game when they should have handed it off to lynch but they passed it instead and butler intercepted it on the goal line. I was crying tears of joy when that happened hahaha
Legend.
You should also do one on Debo Samuel. Plays WR and running back he is a tank.
Excellent TE only if he was injured less he would’ve had a longer career. Check out Tony Gonzalez (played 17 seasons missed only 2 games jus as a beast as well)
He won 4 super bowls with Brady, 3 in NE and 1 in Tampa Bay, monster TE but injuries took a toll when they all hit him low
Haha that SB 49 int still makes me laugh😂jus run the ball they had one of the best rbs in history😂
More and more fit the Gronk model: big but athletic and fast. In the old days, tight ends blocked more often than received. But there was less passing overall back then.
Thanks for this info Kent, appreciate it 🙏
Shout out to tight ends! I played tight end in high school. It’s a pretty tough position as you’re expected to be able to block and catch.
Some other great tight ends in recent memory are Tony Gonzalez, Antonio Gates, and Greg Olsen with the current best being Travis Kelce, George Kittle, and Mark Andrews. Great watch guys!
Thanks Roger, appreciate it! Think we’ve got these ones noted but will have another look to make sure. Thanks for the comment 🙏
George Kittle
@@dannyjoe3343 oops! Fixed it. I was thinking George and typed Greg 😣
When healthy Gronk was the Best tight end I've ever seen and I've been a football fan since '70
Huge compliment that John, thanks for commenting, we really appreciate it 🙏
Gronk is one of the greatest blocking tight ends in NFL history!
Love this! Hard to disagree having seen these highlights! 🙏
Super Bowl 49 was that Super Bowl. Instead of running it on the goal line we threw it. Definitely a nightmare of a memory. Still I have nothing but admiration for Gronk. Genuinely one of the nicest guys around the football field.
Yeah that’s not a great memory at all 😭
One of the most fun players to watch, not even a Patriots fan. This video doesn't go far enough to show that he also went to Tampa Bay with Tom Brady and won another Superbowl! You guys will like Travis Kelce if you're enjoying Tight Ends!
Heard about this in the comments (Tampa), absolutely crazy! Definitely something we’ll look to return to and cover that part of his story. Thanks for the info and comment, really appreciate it 🙏
Gronk is probably the best blocking TE ever (aside from maybe strictly blocking te’s)
The Marshawn Lynch no-handoff gets blown way out of proportion. The odds of throwing an interception on a 1 yard slant are no worse than Marshawn fumbling if they'd handed off to him. It was poorly executed, but there's no guarantee that a handoff wins it with any more certainty.
Does make sense, appreciate the comment, thanks for posting. Have a great day 🙏
someone also crunched the numbers and found that through out that season, Seattle had more success throwing it when that close then they did handing it off to Marshawn Lynch. I think it was like a 70% success rate when throwing verses a 35% success rate when handing off.
He also won another Super Bowl with Tom, in Tampa Bay
And two years later, he and Brady did it again, with Tampa Bay. There will never be another Gronk. He WAS the best blocking tight end ever: Kelce is no comparison.
Most Tight ends are either massive guys who r great Blockers, or a little smaller and better at Recieving. But no one had ever seen a 6’7” 280 lbs guy who was this athletic. He was both one of the best blockers and receivers ever at his position
Also lots of Tight Ends were Blockers until the Patriots got Gronk and Hernandez. Hernandez was a little small but a better athlete and reciever… then Hernandez got charged with murdering 3/4 ppl and Gronk took over lol
As a seahawk fan that superbowl still hurts we were going for back to back championships. There were about 20 seconds left in the game and the seahawks had the ball down 4. The theory is the coach wanted to get the qb Russell wilson the superbowl mvp. I reccomend his highlights of you have not seen them yet
A fun guy to look at from a good while back would be Randall Cunningham. A great human highlight machine.
I’m a lifelong New England Patriots hater but I love Gronk. He even threatened to retire instead of accepting a trade to my Lions and I still love him. Just such a goof and a fantastic football player
If you want to see a blocking tight end who is an absolute monster as well, you should watch George kittle.
