Default A Galloway note from Reiss' chat yesterday

Quote:
Mike Reiss: Shawn, I think the approach is to go with what they have for 2009, but plan for the future (2010) by drafting a possible No. 3 option. Galloway is on a one-year deal. On an aside, Galloway was apparently catching passes from Brady this week and was blown away at the experience. He's played with more than 20 different quarterbacks in his career and I think he has the excitement of a rookie because of the chance to play with Brady. Galloway was marveling at how accurate Brady was in the practice session.
As Brady's private coach said, they operated on his knee, not his head, his heart, or his arm.

So Galloway is fast and a very good receiver. Brady is accurate and a very good QB and makes every WR he clicks with better.

Where art thou September? Heck, I'll take AUGUST!

We lost a lot in 2007 when they benched Stallworth to go with Gaffney - too bad Stallworth couldn't be relied on to be in the right place because we missed his speed; hopefully Galloway will get that speed back that we lost with Stallworth but also run better routes.

Great to hear about Brady's accuracy, though, every marker of the knee not bothering him is great (the knee could affect accuracy if he was favoring the re-made knee a little).

Really? I only remember them losing one game in the 2007-08 season.

Living here in the Tampa area I can tell you that Galloway has speed that will knock your socks off. Last year he could have played but was either in Gruden's doghouse for some reason, or was replaced in his scheme by Antonio Bryant - who had a great year. Biggest knock I would have on Galloway is that he's not as good as Gaffney at run blocking, in my opinion.

That may have been why he didn't see action last year; Tampa Bay used Bryant as their deep threat, Clayton as a run-blocker, and Hilliard as the short, possession, move-the-chains receiver; Bryant had replaced Galloway and the two others were better at those specific roles.

I would suggest that Pats fans discard last years stats, and also completely disregard the idea that he has slowed down. That's not to say that he is more susceptible to injury, because at his age he is; I'm just saying that he was healthy enough to play a whole lot more than he did last year.

My biggest concern is not his health, age, or speed; it is how he will fit in to an offensive scheme that may call on him to be an effective run-blocker.

So much of professional sports is played not on the field...but in the heads of those on the field.

This OP shows why Brady is the greatest ever IHHO....and other players recognize and respect his dedication and abilities.

Man.....I can't wait for the season to start......

I didn't say it cost them games but the offense was more explosive when Stallworth played more.

Tom Brady is accurate? Where was it in the superbowl? He is a terrific player but he is a mega choker, thats right he is an even bigger choker than peyton. he short arms all his throws and he misses wide open receivers in the clutch. He is like the arod of football. Great player but a choker.
