Bruce Smith Crushes Boomer Esiason with a Devastating Hit
In the second quarter, Bruce Smith was ruled offsides, negating the sack on Boomer Esiason. The penalty was declined, resulting in a fourth down. Everett MacGyver flinched at the left tackle position, causing Smith to jump. Despite the flinch, whistles should have blown to protect the quarterback, but they didn't, leading to Esiason getting hit. The officiating crew failed to protect him, raising concerns about player safety. Esiason was hurt, and the medical staff attended to him as he sat on the sidelines, replaced by Bobby Brister. The play should have resulted in a 15-yard penalty due to helmet-to-helmet contact, but it was missed by the officials.
Dennis and Callahan discuss Gronk's injury with Boomer Esiason.
Dennis and Callahan discuss with NFL analyst Boomer Esiason about Rob Gronkowski's injury, which he sustained in the 4th quarter of the Patriots' game. Despite the Patriots' impressive offensive performance, including eight touchdowns and Tom Brady's surgical efficiency, Gronkowski's broken forearm casts a shadow over the victory. Esiason credits Julian Edelman and the Patriots' defense, particularly Aqib Talib, for their contributions. He also acknowledges Andrew Luck's potential but points out his need to learn from mistakes. The conversation shifts to the impact of Gronkowski's absence, especially in the red zone, and the potential return of Aaron Hernandez. Esiason emphasizes that despite injuries, the Patriots' success is largely due to Tom Brady's exceptional play.
