The Griffons would never attack the ship unless they were provoked. After all, we see tons flying around the ship but not a single one attacks it. Besides, you can't deny how much of a big cop out the whole thing was. A Griffon crashed into the right place and started a series of explosions that destroyed the ship. Why would create such a delicate war machine?

Roman showed he was perfectly capable of commanding the ship on his own. Any Grimm that tried to attack him would've been blasted away.

The point is: It would be a huge stretch if Neo blamed Cinder for Roman's death. Both in-universe and out of it.
