Good grief, I said "sometimes". I didn't say that is what he was doing!
3. However, earlier in the same play the refs missed a serious infraction by the Bills. Brady's pass to Welker was off target (just like the pass on the previous play, which had Welker upset and Brady pissed), Welker reached out to try and get it, the ball went up in the air, at which point Welker was drilled by the Bills defender, helmet to the back of Welker's head. Welker's head snapped forward and he collapsed to the ground motionless for several seconds before rousing himself to run down the field and make the tackle (amazing!). Classic example of a hit on a defenseless receiver, which it would have been even if it hadn't been helmet-to-helmet (the back of Welker's helmet in this case). Seems like exactly what the NFL is trying to prevent. Should have been a 15-yard penalty with the Patriots retaining possession.
Surprised no one has noticed that play in that light until now.
Lighten up. High-stepping and a high level of execution are not mutually exclusive. See Sanders, Deion. I hate when people try to characterize the "Patriot Way" as acting like a faceless drone Boy Scout. You can have fun, have a personality, and occasionally even show up the opponent (although I don't think that's what Hernandez was doing) and still be a great Patriot.
Bills vs Patriots Replay
By: Derek Havens
For those of you who would like to watch the Bills and Patriots game from this past weekend, it will be replayed on NFL Network tonight at 8 p.m. eastern time. ...
If so you then must believe that the near non existent display of these type antics in the last 10 years had no bearing on the Patriot reign.
