"Deep threat" is overrated IMO, but a WR who can run every route effectively is a very good thing.
We now have one of those and a second playing TE in Gronk.

See i don't think it's overrated at all. Say you had Welker and Edleman on the outside or Welker and ****ty chad johnson. it would make it tougher for gronk and hernandez IMO

But lloyd is a great route runner who catches everything with great speed and loves mcdaniels. Recipe for success

No, they gave up 273 yards. You're not counting Hasselbeck's yards.

You still have to cover the routes regardless of who runs them.
A 'deep threat' catches a handful of deep passes in a season and contrary to what some believe doesn't change the way a defense plays.
A COMPLETE receiver can dictate coverages, but when you have all of the weapons we do, you force a defense to play honestly and give that receiver room to operate.

264 actually, but more importantly 284 yards of total offense.
In 2011 a defense allowing 284/game would have ranked 2nd in the NFL, and a team allowing 13 ppg would have been first.
What exactly are we criticizing?

As you might recall, Hobbs used to return kicks. We can hope Vereen is healthy for next week.

VEry impressed by our sure tackling.

Hightower to me was the most impressive rookie and one of the most impressive defenders overall.

Wilfork was awesome once again.

Ninkovich didn't do much. It'll be interesting if Cunningham ever supplants him as a starter.

Jones looked great defending the run, but aside from his sack, didn't really do much rushing the QB.

Ridley was great but our run blocking has to be commended for opening holes.

I bet they change how the secondary plays more than you think especially if you have two on the outside. 1 maybe not

Well, we aren't going to agree on this, so we should probably move on.

I don't like it either especially if McCourty plays as solid as he was today (I'm of the crowd who felt he did decent). Hopefully when Vereen comes back they'll finally put him back there.
