Rangers boss Gerrard saw his side lose 2-1 to Celtic on Sunday afternoon, all but confirming that the Hoops will win the Scottish Premiership once again this season.
The biggest talking point of the match, however, was the dismissal of Gers hitman Morelos.
The Rangers striker saw red after clashing with Celtic midfielder Brown right in front of the assistant referee. Replays appear to show the Colombian using an elbow to strike out at his opponent.
Gerrard, however, blames Brown for the whole incident.
"You're playing against a player who loves to antagonise," Gerrard told Sky Sports after the Old Firm game.
"Morelos and Kent are both provoked. Celtic fans have the right to celebrate but to do it right in your race, Halliday has the right to protect his own people.
"The guy who antagonised it all from the beginning deserves to be punished as well.
"When you're provoked, it's only fair that both sides get punished in my view.
"We've hurt ourselves badly this season with a lack of discipline.

"I've given my players the benefit of the doubt on too many times. Morelos has asked me for a chat, and that will be picked up.
"The gap was already big and it's even bigger now.
"The buck stops with me and I'm ready for that.
"We will move forward from this and try to finish the season as strong as we can."
