PFSIKH Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 A good article. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Work ethic isn't the only thing that makes Welker a success By Justin Harper Staff Writer Grit, guts, heart and determination are always the explanations why Wes Welker has become an NFL success when he theoretically has no reason being one. The only problem with that theory is this: "You can work hard, but if you don't have talent it doesn't matter, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. You might try to back off what you said because you don't want to be such a clear homer but you actually believe that this midget is better than Coles and Cotch...

Barton Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Work ethic isn't the only thing that makes Welker a success By Justin Harper I got this far until I had to sprint to the bathroom. I took a huge welker and used up alot of tp to wipe my wes. I almost didnt make it on time, but thankfully I had the grit, guts, heart and determination to not soil myself before I flopped on the seat. Phew.

nyjunc Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 I am so sick of the Wes Welker lovefest, this guy is a decent #3 WR and at best an average return man. The quote below is from Rodney harrison: "That's the underrated acquisition right there. He gave us more problems than any player in our division. Quick, smart, fast, never dropped a ball. We couldn't single-cover him." He have them more problems than any player int he division? Is this a joke? In 4 career games against the Pats Wes had a total of 14 recs, had 157 Yds and ZERO TDs. Yeah he really burned the Pats bad that they had to double him all the time. meanwhile in 2 reg season games lastyear cotchery had 12 recs, 191 yds and 2 TDs. Maybe doubling Wes in the game at Miami where he had 1 rec for -1 yards is the reason they gave up 21 points and lost? Wes is an average player, not eorth anywhere near $10 mil in guaranteed money AND NE gave up 2nd an 7th rd picks. One of the worst trades in recent memory.

I keep hearing this from pats fans, where did you guys make this stuff up from? Wes in 4 career games has 15 recs, 157 yds and ZERO TDs. That averages to under 4 recs, 39 yds and ZERO TDs a game. When exactly did he tear you apart? KRs: 12 KRs, 19 yds per return He had ONE big return against you an it was meaningless. It was a 46 yarder on the last play of th 1st half in the first meeting of '05. PRs: 11 returns, 7.7 average, long of 14. So when did Wes tear you apart in the return game?

Alk Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 True, but Wayne didn't cost a 2nd and 7th rounder. That may be but I bet if you watched him put up the numbers he did the first few years for another team you wouldn't have had a problem giving that up. The Patriots ovbiously see something in him that alot of the armchair qbs don't and given their track record, I'm not the least bit concerned with us giving up a 2nd. round pick for him.
