Fans are quick to say that the refs are making bad calls but now, some players may think it is so as well. Rob Gronkowski thinks that NFL referees are out to get him.
While watching the game, the first thing many might say is, “Where’s the flag at?” 9 times out of 10, the referees get it wrong but this new theory seems to suggest that NFL refs are out to get Rob Gronkowski. This is based off Sunday’s game against the Broncos. Even the Gronk tweeted this theory with one word: agree.
For those of you who don’t know, OPI flag means “Offensive Pass Interference.” Gronkowski’s been picking up a few of these lately. Here’s what the article suggests.
“There is no question about that. There is not even a debate, especially after that fourth quarter OPI called on Sunday. That closed the book on that debate; they are going after Rob Gronkowski,” said Howe. “He didn’t even initiate the contact and was penalized on that play. That was the worst penalty, up there with the Malcolm Butler PI [against the Giants]. Those are the two worst penalties I’ve seen called this season against the Patriots.”

Do you think they’re targeting the GRONK?
