Also TE Rob Gronkowski also had a complaint, about refs not being consistent week to week, and so the Patriots would also be studying the refs and how those refs that week called things.

Gronkowski (who hate studying and some said he didn't) didn't care if the refs let them played physical, or made them play finesse, he just wanted it consistent from week to week so he wouldn't have to keep studying or adjusting to the refs that week.
