I give the nod to Hobbs on this one. I think he can break every kick for a TD. Welker ... I always expect a good runback but for some reason I don't see him taking it to the bank like Hobbs can....good production in
any case on PUNTS & KICKOFFS.
In any case ... outside of Troy Brown I can't count the number of threads we discussed about needing better production in the kickoff/punt return game. The games where Troy was injured were pretty rough. I remember Belichick saying he would look for something in the draft ... i thought that was a big factor in why he grabbed Hobbs.
I think it's great we have 2 and CJ looks like he'll be good in the return game also. Just thought I'd toss it out there. Neither guy gets much props for it nationally.
For the record Hobbs finished 9th for Kickoffs. http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/sortableStats?div=NFL&stable=returning&stat=retKickAvg&dir=descending
for the record Welker finished 7th for punt returns. http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/sortab...fl-player-stats-punt-returning&dir=descending
