Mac accused of hitting Sauce in the junk!

[cmasspatsfan]

Still not ONE Mac hater can explain to me (or anyone else for that matter) why there isn't a SCINTILLA of evidence that this so called savage attack on Gardner. Where is the groan? Where is the whimper? Where is there even a TWITCH to show he was hit in the nuts? Nothing. Nada. ZERO reaction other than to shove Mac to the ground well after the whistle (that particularly fast whistle btw).

Is Mac chippy? Yup Is Mac gonna give as much as he takes? You better believe it? Is he gonna whine like Gardner if he gets roughed up a bit? I haven't seen it so far. Just who is the dirty player here. All the haters want to give GARDNER the benefit of the doubt and throw Mac under the bus with ZERO evidence of a crime. Zero? It is much more believable based on the evidence that Gardner was simply trying to justify HIS dirty actions.

Unlike the haters I'm willing to admit I'm wrong about the play IF someone can show a SINGLE clip which shows Gardner in even a momentary incident of pain coming from this phantom shot to the nuts. But thus far we just have the same Johnny one notes trying to justify a dubious position....AGAIN.

BTW- what exactly are the other incidents that show this is a pattern of behavior. IIRC there was the ankle tug, and while I understand why the defender would be immediately upset, but that was clearly an instinctual move to keep the defender from jumping on the fumble. I WANT my QB to do something like that rather than just allow him to go get it. He should be applauded for it. There was nothing malicious about it.

Then there was the time where he supposedly "trash talked" an opponent (I forgot who) OOOOH, like that doesn't go on with everyone else. What player in the NFL gets that far being insulted by trash talk. Generally I'd say it is not a game for the thin skinned. Now personally I'd advise my QB, who is subject to blindside hits, NOT to trash talk. Defensive players have enough motivation to knock the snot out you, that you don't need to give them more. But that's just me.

Those are the 3 I can recall. Are there more? And if so what are they?

This is simply low hanging fruit for lazy media hosts too ignorant or lazy to actually work to get info that will actually INFORM their readers and listeners. and people with an agenda and nothing better to do than ruin this board. This crap has 18 pages and the x's and o's thread for this week doesn't exist, and the Cowboys thread has 6. THAT is how bad it's getting. Christ swap the word Jets for Pats and it could be just another version of a group of Jets fans.

Mac got tossed around after the whistle with no penalty called, he should have kicked some of the Jets in the nuts.

If Devon McCourty says you’re a dirty player, you’re a dirty player.

If Devon McCourty says you’re a dirty player, you’re a dirty player.

DMac didn't say that. He said Mac needs to stop finding himself in the middle of these scrums. And I agree....trash talk when we win or are up 2-3 TD's late in the game...

 

[PATS16N0]

And there is a reaction, he flinched as soon as you see Mac’s elbow jerk like what theoretically could be a knuckle slap to the nuts.

 

[Ras-IR Dowling]

Look at what Mike Evans did when Lattimore was just talking trash to Brady.

And it cost Evans the rest of the game.

Should also be noted that Evans and Lattimore have a history. These two despise each other.

Hey! Could one you guys who post on TheGangGreen.com give a word of advice to "Cranberry Sauce" Gardner to forget being a two-sport guy in ice hockey? Tell him to focus on what Brad Marchand does at the 52-second mark.

This story was discussion worthy Monday, getting a little old on Tuesday, and "Can we move on already?" on Wednesday.

Personally, I think all Mosely, Jones, and Gardner probably will get fined and I don't have a problem with it. But I stopped caring about 24 hours ago.

To be honest I'd rather hear about this than the Kelce/Swift relationship

WTF reality are you living in?

 

[1960Pats]

Saw the video and there's no clear evidence he did or didn't. For all we know it was a Jets player and Sauce thought it was Mac. There is clear evidence though that both of these are true: Jets defenders tried to rough Mac up after the whistle and Mac started walking away.

Next time I hope someone on the OL gives one of them a beating if they try anything like that. I remember Mankins taught Polamalu a lesson after he tried to rough up Brady after a TD sneak.

What team did Polamalu play for anyway? Oh yeah, the same team that took Brady out in 2001.

 

[1960Pats]

I still can't believe that NYFL players don't wear cups.

 

[1960Pats]

Because Goodell is a JEST fan.

To be exact he's a former Jet, just like the clowns he hired. It's where he got his start.

 

[1960Pats]

When someone says "league source," you think of someone at NFL HQ, which lends credibility to the story. It could also be some assistant coach on the Jets, since they are part of the league and are acting as a source. Still, I'm not seeing anything terrible in that video. The Jets were pushing Mac's head back on the QB sneak, knocked him to the turf twice after the play and avoid any penalties. Now their whining after they lost because Mac might have delivered some minor cheap shot? No wonder they'll always be losers.

Even if it was someone at NYFL HQ it would be a former Jet, just like the commish.

And now that I think about it, the only person who was messing with footballs during the playoffs when the Pats were accused was also from NYFL HQ and likely a former Jet.

 

[Noexcusesfornumber5]

There's no evidence! Ass Sauce must have the smallest balls in the world to make that claim. I'd be embarrassed if said that out loud. I damn sure wouldn't want my Dad's friends to hear it.

 

[PancakeBlockPaul]

I still can't believe that NYFL players don't wear cups.

So much for the NFL caring so much about player safety eh? From what I've gathered, they don't wear a lot of the usual gear to get a leg up on being able to move better. Things like thigh / knee pads aren't used etc because it helps them move....which I can agree with because they definitely hinder....I could be wrong but looking at the players, you don't see them a lot of times....

bump for 20 pages

Devon McCourty said Mac wasn't a dirty player. Quite explicitly. For some reason the media decided to not include that part. hmm.

If using two eyes and common sense makes me a "hater" so be it.

 

[203Pat]

Fixed it for you.

Well I don't to be honest. He isn't the guy. The rest of you will admit once he's gone but Mac doesn't have what it takes to make a real playoff run.

 

[sb1]

If Mac gets a fine for what the video showed next time just go all the way and do this. More fun to watch and he gets his moneys worth.

Mac isn't a dirty player but he is a chirper. I think it would be better if the team is up big before he starts talking.
