New England Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski has 40 catches for 516 yards and six touchdowns in six games against the Denver Broncos going back to 2011, including six catches for 88 yards and a score in Week 12 this year.

Footballguys View: Gronkowski is a problem for most every team in the NFL, and the Broncos are no different. However, the Broncos do struggle against good tight ends…and Gronkowski is great. In order for the Patriots to win, they’ll likely target Gronkowksi early and often.
