Default Gronk for the TE TD record

EDIT: Then again are they ruling it as a lateral? Still, with the 4 games left, it will be his.

Congratulations (still 4 games to go).

Is it too early to extend his contract?

Yeah, they ruled it a lateral.

Maybe they'll leave Brady on the field and have him throw another to Gronk.

He still has the record for TDs scored by a TE, just not for TD receptions.

Dumbest tweet of the day:

SMH.

Yes, but plays like that are called passes pretty much every game in the NFL. I don't know why the refs were ticky tacky with that, but I guess it's a TD either way, so it doesn't matter much.

Not the refs, the statisticians.

I rather doubt Gates or Vernon Davis had rushing or return touchdowns in their seasons. We can reasonably assume that Gronkowski now already owns the record for the most TD's in a season by a TE in league history -- 12 games into his second season.
