He was probably taught by that patriots o line guy
The legendary Dante Scarnecchia
Facts
Matt Patricia
Gronk was never an offensive lineman. He certainly learned to block through his love to block more than anything. Sure, he was coached up. But a good blocker is a willing blockers
@lebronbrady6638 sure, but it is easy to coach Gronk. Gronk was so coachable too. Gronk is a 🦄
Gronk ihas always been such an underrated blocker. He might be one of if not the best blocking tight end ever
Prime Gronk is the best tight end ever for this very reason. Huge man, fast, good routes, great hands and excellent blocking. Without any injuries Kelce wouldn't be the next GOAT TE.
He’s the best blocking TE ever it’s not close no debate
Nah he ain’t underrated at blocking lol I think it’s widely known he’s the best blocking tight end ever
@@myco9253 preach
@@myco9253 true I think kelce probably runs the best routes out of any tight end ever tho...dude runs routes like a reciever
This is why gronk is the goat, Kelce could never block like this, and we know Gronk could catch like that
Exactly
100%
Also i really like kelce but gronk is more unstoppable hes literally been hurt all the time because they have to hit cheap shots when trying to stop him
Kelce is a way better receiving tight end dont get it twisted. Blocking is very important though so I'd say they're even. A younger Gronkowski that is. Current Gronk lost lots of strength and speed
@@bubbz8294 Na. Gronk is a better catcher and better after the catch. I don’t think Kelce did anything better than prime Gronk. Gronk made so many ridiculous catches including one of the greatest I’ve ever seen, especially from a TE vs the Broncos.
@@luischauca1429 watch kelce a little more . Its not all mahomes down in KC, kelce and hill are a huge reason he gets those stats. Gronk is better after the catch I think too , though kelce is faster and would win more foot races. I too think Gronk was a great receiver and def the best in his prime , when guys like kelce and kite weren't around . Who cares what I think , his stats prove it. Just saying he's not a good receiver as kelce , no Way bro
Chiefs are in for a long night. Bucs remind me of the 2019 Nats in the WS, experienced, motivated, never give up, and peaking at the right time, what, 7 wins in a row now? Gonna be a great game. Great job as usual JK, thx.
What a beast tight end all around, Kielce would never.
Kelce to me is more of a receiver. Gronk is actually a tight end who blocks more then he goes out on routes. Its a bit annoying when people say Kelce is the best tight end when i really dont think he belongs in that category.
Gronk is a true tight end kelce is a router runner
@@Nlk12004 exactly. Which is why I don't think he is the greatest tight end ever. It's either gronk or winslow. Even Gonzalez ran a fuck load of routes compares to other tight ends
@@saudielbamber4227 That's just how the position of TE evolved though... TEs are not supposed to be able to block your best edge rusher, Gronk is literally one of a kind in that category. Kelce fits the system in KC perfectly and is serviceable enough as a blocker to chip an End or take on MLBs...
Many people dont remember when he single handedly blocked Haloti Ngata in the playoffs on a run play. At the time Ngata was one of the most disruptive D tackles in the league
Get off the crack n mushrooms fool , Haloti threw o linemen around with 1 arm . Haloti were would be the toughest block in Gronks life
@@bubbz8294 yeah Gronk blocked him good 1 on 1.
@@bubbz8294 Yeah Gronk actually blocked him.Gronk is a G
@@erikpuka2627 yeah Gronkowski is a Ghost trying to block Ngata. No real football head thinks Gronk can block Ngata.
@@bubbz8294 Well he just did and there was nothing Ngatta could do about it.And you saw the video too.Idk abiut the football heads - i know what I saw on tape
As a Gronk fan it pains me to say but we didn’t even get to see this guy truly hit his peak due to injuries. In talent and skill, he’s probably the best TE to ever play the game. Sadly, the best skill is availability.. and Gronk was always burdened by injuries 💯 I’m glad he got to comeback with Brady and enjoy one last ride 🙌🏼🙌🏼
We all saw his peak for christ sakes , Pat's got the worst fans literally
@@bubbz8294 lmao I know. Who is this guy? Gronk is the best all around tight end I've witnessed in my lifetime. I got to see some of Tony Gonzalez and Shannon Sharpe play but to me neither was better all around than Gronk.
Gronk is a beast and was not plagued with injuries. He was hurt a few times but he wasn't out every other week and missing seasons.
@bubbz8294 yes, we saw it. But from years 3-7, which are prime years, he missed nearly 2 full seasons worth of games and missed 3 of those playoff runs.
Gronk is one of my favorite players ever, but his body took a beating. If he had 50% less injuries, nobody would be even suggesting that clown Kelce being in his league.
I love that you did this. His blocking was good for The Patriots, too. Love Gronk.
Man this is why I like your videos. I've seen youtubers and even "professionals" all week talking about how TB doesnt have the weapons nearly explosive as KC with Hill and Kelce.
And your video shows why. TB has pass catchers all over the field. Gronk is a great blocking TE. But dude can still get down field and catch passes.
In fact. In only 13 more cstches the Kelce. Gronk has 600 more yards. 20 to 30 more TDs, more first down catches.. I hope KC is sleeping on him as much as these fans. Block, block, block. Then big play. Get him one on one against these LBs who cant pass cover. Dude is going to eat.
I absolutely love gronk
Great analysis Jackson.
No its not Cant watch this crap Wait for the play wait some more How about running the play while your babbling on and on
@@Kingoflorida727 if you don’t like it why are you watching it?
@@Nlk12004 I have football knowledge Maybe you dont I dont need to hear what i already know And Nik I break down plays myself Just stumbled upon this crap But you do you If you need all this info babble Its all good bro GO BUCS
@@Kingoflorida727 go bucs
Gronk is by far the best blocking TE in the league and one of the best blocking TEs the league has ever had. He blocks better than a good bit of lineman if we are being completely honest
Gronk's blocking seems to me to have been a season game changer. Brady not getting sacked often is the difference between a "W" and an "L" and between completed passes and interceptions. I desperately want Gronk to get a TD for history but I get it that him protecting the quarterback is probably even more important. Tom Brady has never lost a game when he wasn't getting sacked.
Easy to fix. Gameplan so that he blocks 80 percent of te time. But he then goes out to catch passes on the other 20 percent. Makes him harder to plan for since you never know what he is going to do.
@@saudielbamber4227 Yeah. And I saw a twinkle in Tom's eyes when he talked about Gronk. He wants that historical pass catch.
@@wishingb5859 They still have next year
Love all the film work you do. Keep them coming.
Nice video, Gronk blocking had always been phenomenal. That’s a reason his is On The 100th anniversary team
I am thankful that Jensen didn't get a block in the back penalty on that Gronk screen pass. It was awful close. No wonder the Pack was screaming on that PI penalty late in the game. I saw that penalty from the end zone angle and Pack defender was practically trying to undress Tyler Johnson as he ran his route so it was a pretty obvious penalty but more like a defensive holding than a PI. It didn't take the backfield ref that long to throw the flag either. First he had to signal no catch and then he went straight for the flag. Good call.
Dude don’t doubt yourself I’m a pats fan he absolutely would be a pro bowl tackle
Great analysis. I love to see this, I can't always catch the line play from the game reel. And thanks for keeping out back ground music.
Anybody see that hilarious Tmobile commercial
Chris from Family Guy
Versitility is a killer. The defense doesn't know if its going to be a run play with heavy blocking or a pass play. LB's can't cover Gronk on a pass play, so it makes the defense keep a CB in closer. If the Patriots were able to keep Aaron Hernandez they would have been unstoppable. They would have two good blocking/receiving TEs, plus a blocking/Receiving Fullback all pro James Devlin. Few people understood how deadly this combo was. Most LB's are too light these days to handle that. Look at the old Patriot films and watch how they opened up holes to make a journey man half back like Sony Michael very productive. I would like to see the Bucs get a good fullback - their run game would be unstoppable and it would open up the defense.
Preach brother
Crazy for Gronkowski lying about working out all offseason
Good pick up. This was overlooked by many in the run-up to the SB. I think Gronk could be an X-factor in the game.
He absolutely was
Gronk is the best tight end ever, in receiving and blocking. He knows the most important thing he can do is protect his QB. Kansas City might have faired better in the Super Bowl if they had their tight ends help the offensive line with blocking. But Kelce doesn’t like to block, he’s more of a mid tier wide receiver.
In his prime Gronk blocked Khalil Mack 1vs1. The only thing that is surprising is that he still got that much ability coming out of retirement and with his injury history.
Gronk is an all around winning TE. Kelce is a stats TE. Gronk in this prime > Kelce in his prime
If Brady doesn't throw more than one int I think the Bucs got this.
Gronk é o Melhor TE de Todos os tempos. Um Abraço aqui do rio de janeiro
A tight end PASS BLOCKING a top 5 pass rusher in the NFL is so over the top ridiculous. You can’t understate it.
Nice explanation man! Go Bucs!
He averged MORE THAN 1 TD PER GAME over his his first seasons- until his first major back injury. Think about that. Only a handful of elite recievers have EVER done that in a single season. Gronk did it for ALMOST SIX YEARS and probably would l have done it for many more. If not for the injuries, he would retire with the highest career TD per game average in NFL history BY AN INSANE AMOUNT: like 1.4 while the current record holder is around .8 or something. It's fucking ridiculous how productive his prime was. I've never seen a more fun player to watch, or anyone more likeable
And people really think kelce is better lmao people forget so quickly
JK called Gronk's Super Bowl performance in advance!
Your not wrong about gronk being a beast blocker in his prime. I honestly believe that he was a elite tackle in the league in his prime.
Gronk could have been a HoF right tackle too but decided he wanted to catch some balls and score some tuddies
I think Kelce is the best receiving tight end, and can block pretty well as well, and my personal list is 1. Tony, 2. Kelce, 3. Gronkowski. Believe it or not, Kelce runs away with the statistically better hands, more YAC than any tight end in history so far, and has had pivotal blocks when they need him to do so, they just usually would rather have him be triple covered to try to open up the field or still somehow catch a pass.
If Brate is injured maybe they play more 11 personnel with AB. But Gronk could allow them to run more from that personnel package.
After week 7 we learned a lot second half all we needed was to get the ball back! But this time around we know what we are dealing with they might have a few tricks up their sleeve but they just don’t know how good our defense is.. we on top of it!! Watch 31-28 Bucs!!
Do Nick Boyle of the Ravens next.He can really block
Gronk scored two TSs in the bowl. But his blocking has always been good.
Always love a Jim Mora reference
I saw a video of Gronk with the Rock and Gronk made him look like an average sized guy 🤣🤣🤣 gronk is way bigger than I expected
Gronk and Brate combined for 10 catches and 140 yards vs KC in the season game. KC doesn't have a good answer to the Bucs TEs.
Tandem (BIG) TE's are tough to beat.....
Gronk wouldn't let that happen to Mahones, if he was team mated with him.
Gronk is a beast
As a neutral fan it might be hard to get pressure on tom Brady. The only teams that would give them trouble are the rams and saints. Chiefs don’t have a front 4 like they do. But then again chiefs can score in like 30 seconds. It’s going to come down to Arians play calling not forcing downfield shots like they did in the second half against Green Bay if the line can’t hold up. That’s why I think chiefs might win better coaching and there’s always someone open if the play isn’t there. Something that the bucs don’t do. If they call a deep throw Brady doesn’t have an option to at least pick up 3-5 yards.
Shit Arians said “he lets Brady coach” so I honestly feel like those were Brady’s calls, very very bad ones at that. Even if Arians calls the play he can’t force it like that against the chiefs
@@hyper550 I don't think they were bad calls, he was throwing the ball up to one of the best jump ball receivers in the league, that were slightly overthrown.
@@bruvva2160 the one was over thrown but the other 2 were bad under throws into double coverage aswell, I love Brady but that was stupid and unnecessary
If you think brady doesn't have an option to throw it short on the majority of these long throws your grossly mistaken . This is Tom Brady your talking about .
Tom reads the defense he knows when to throw it long , he doesn't just huck it on a whim without any other options..
Gronk and Kittle are the best all around TE. Sure Kelce is elite but he can’t block for shit
This is why Brady brought him back lol
Love Gronk. He can block Khalil Mack 1:1
Here's a hint: If the screen hasn't moved in 30 seconds, YOU'RE TALKING TOO MUCH!
Gronk benefits greatly here from growing up wrestling with his brothers his whole childhood. He is no doubt a large man and very athletic but skills of leverage and hand play were skills he had to learn to compete with his brothers. GO BUCS!!
He hasn't been athletic in years but ok
Oh myy god who the fuck are these defensive coordinators why are their dlines so spread out. Normally a 9 tech is far but these guys look A 13 tech lol.
lispy man
Bucs just need to bench #24 C. Davis. A complete flip flop.
There best CB?
What? He’s literally their best corner
What the Bucs need to do is stop leaving Davis on an island by himself all the Time. Davis is very good but he needs to be more on Watkins than a Hill. Dean or SMB with Safety Help on Hill is more effective.
He's really good in Zone but when he's 1 on 1 he does tend to get beat a lot.
@@bruvva2160 he’s better at man, but nobody can guard hill in 1on1 so I don’t hold that game against him
Nah kittle is definitely the better blocker
Lmfao L
Tampa by six !
This guy has no clue about anything about football🤣
