    I like a good physical game but some of the stuff not called against Jax on Sunday would be consider a 'mugging' or 'assault' in the street.

    Dude, look at Browns first TD, McDonald did not have a Jag off within 10 yards of him in the end zone.

    All I saw was a post by a Boston Globe reporter claiming second-hand that the official said it. That is shaky sourcing at best.

    Gronkowski pushes off on defenders a lot, I will be watching to see if they call it vs the Jags.

    If this report is true, it should be legal to hold him on every play, right?

    I just looked at Volin's Twitter feed and I don't see the comment about Smith-Schuster there. I do see him posting about the Jags getting away with a blatant hold on the second fourth-and-one. Hell, that part I could have told you live.
