ok y'all I'm too ADD to have this convo right now

Tony himself has said that Gronk is the best ever

As have many of the people in the league

Yes on a yearly bases Gronk has been better, much better actually.... I think many are stating a career where Gonzalez is owning almost every record possible for a TE. This is not to say Gronk is not great, just Gronk, much like Witten, still has a way to go to eclipse what Gonzalez has done. Witten still has a chance but it will take more years than I think he has left. With Gronk we have to wait and see if he also has the gift of longevity. He may very well prove he is the best in history.

It doesn't matter what Tony said most of it comes down to the numbers and Gonzalez's numbers dwarf Gronks. Gronk is a beast and is clearly the best TE in the game but he's had injuries and the many missed games have kept his production from being where it could have been.

@jazzcat22 @KJJ

That was just one google search real quick cuz I'm running around my home and doing three things at once

It's all based on opinion but like I said most of it comes down to a players numbers which is why Jerry Rice is considered the GOAT.

The only thing Gonzalez has on Gronk is longevity. Gonzalez cant do the things Gronk can do. Gronk is the GOAT Tight End...period.

I think the argument being made is about level of play. Gonz & others are saying when he's healthy & playing at his best, Gronk is better than he was.
