Perhaps, but I still like Mathis on Moss. That may free up Welker, but they'll need to come up with a scheme to try to prevent that--not easy, I know. They can bring the pressure, however, and while I agree Tom isn't Ben, even Tom can occasionally get rattled with pressure.
I also think that their steady diet of Fred and J-D may do wonders to keep your O off the field, especially if it's close late in the game (which admittedly may be a stretch) when the age of your LB's may start to show.
