Report: Seahawks cut Super Bowl star WR Matthews

PatsFan2 said:

Sounds awfully tempting but I would rather a capable*Third* Down RB at this point in time. I cannot see Matthews learning our PlayBook this late in the game.

3rd down Rb has just as a complicated job. Protections, running plays, passing plays, picking up the blitz, audibles...

But to your point they need that threat coming out of the backfield and White and Bolden arent it.

BB please sign this guy...could you imagine a big 5 wide line up that would consist of Gronk, Chandler, Lafell, Dobson, & Matthews?!?

Sign him up! The kid has potential. Say what you want but he showed up in the biggest game of his career. Besides, I'm sure the TB12 could make him out to be a better receiver than Wilson.

BTW, I'm aware that we have Dola & Martin, still. Just let a guy dream!

....and here we go with the "He's 6-5 so he could be the next Randy Moss" crowd.

News flash: Tall WR doesn't instantly equate to good WR, let alone great. Moss was one of a kind.

..... Lol and here we go with the Moss comparison. I just stated that he was a big receiver and showed up in the biggest game of his life. Not only that but I don't recall us having a receiver who's willing to go and get the ball in the air other than Gronk. No need to be in your feelings bro . There will never be another Moss.

I do remember a few tweets saying we worked him out recently, but it seems just doing their homework.

The Postion was almost non-existent both Blocking and Catching Sunday.

This: if he clears waivers.

Odds that Rex puts in a claim for him specifically for this week's game?.....

Right now, the Pats need quick receivers who can run slant routes. Not a big WR who runs outside.

Every year we go through this. Big WRs that can be deep threats are overrated unless you get an elite one and then they are still overrated.

I swear Randy Moss has done more to brainwash this fanbase about the type of WRs this team needs.

Pass.

It took a year and a half before Amendola got on the same page as Brady and it took Lafell a half a season. How's a guy with 4 catches this season who just got cut gonna help at this point?

Sign a player that looked great against our team? What are we the Red Sox?

Would he be an improvement over Dobson, who has been nearly invisible? I'd like to bring him in for a workout.

For the practice squad. He will never learn the offense at this point. The Pats can't have a roster spot for development project. He is coming from a simple offense.

I want keshawn martin to start balling. I don't trust dobson to do anything

David Tyree.

Unless he can play tackle, nope.

Isn't Malcolm Smith playing well in Oakland? Or is that wrong?

Why do you trust Martin?

All receptions are caught in the air. Otherwise they call it an incomplete. He had 4 grabs in the SB and a has 4 career reg. season catches and just got cut by a 4-5 team. 1 game maketh not a career, more like an anomoly. If we signed him to the PS, cool.

Probably because he doesn't have the yips like Dobson does.

Oh look the Dobson haters are out in force, let me put on my surprised face. Anyone who would think this guy would be an upgrade over Dobson clearly doesn't know much about football
