How Many Opposing Teams' Fans Would Jump Out of Windows if... - New England Patriots Forums

Chad Jackson comes of the PUP this week and catches 10 passes for 110 yards and 2 TD??????????

Of course, that'll never happen.

But think of the psychological murder this would commit on anyone out there hoping that their team will have a chance against the Patriots this year.

CJ may be the most talented 6th WR in NFL history. However, the most we can send out in a given pattern is 4, so I'm not sure if this means anything.

Why 4? 5 man protection=5

Didn't we send out 5 on a couple plays earlier in the year? Maybe I'm confusing Watson with a WR.

Or we could just give Randy, Wes and Donte a few less snaps this week to rest up a bit. The lousy Miami D is quite banged up and/or IR'ed/Waived.

I would jump out of my window (4 ft drop) if that happened

All the time. When you go "Empty", it is a 5 WR set. I am confused by the "only 4 can go out" assertion.

Yup. Last year's game in Minnesota featured Tom Brady with 5 wide plenty of times.

I was really encouraged by BB's comments on Jackson. Using my Belichick decoder ring, it came out to something like "yeah, the kid was kind of a doofus last year and didn't understand what being an NFL player requires. But he took meetings seriously during his time off and seems to have smartened up, so we think he's ready now."

Jackson, Moss, Stallworth and Welker together? Yikes.

wow...a Chad Jackson sighting. Now we have something to be excited about.
