It's easy, and only takes a few moments.I've said it before but I'd like to see this team at at least two WRs of two different skill sets: a speedy deep threat and a physical possession receiver who can also get down field.
A Torrey Smith and an Anquan Boldin, pretty much.
This is one of the major reasons why the Pats can't win the big games.
Where is Randy Moss's replacement at?
I'd say Lloyd and Welker are about the least physically intimidating receivers in the league, one guys too short to effectively attack any part of the field besides the middle 10 yards or closer and the other guy lives on the ground.
Come on......if you listen to the Lloyd fanboys......Lloyd is a THREAT.....a WEAPON.....until he catches the ball. Then the threat fall down go boom.
He's a huge threat to the Gillette turf, Lloyd's facemask is probably imprinted into the turf in half a dozen places
That deep threat really didn't help matters in 2007 or 2009 playoffs.
And who was our deep threat in 2001-2004?
This is one of the last concerns to focus on IMO.
Yes. On a day with 20 MPH winds and 40 MPH gusts, throwing 40 yard bombs would have been the answer.
Apparently folks want to spend $10M on a wide receiver who might work out, instead of re-signing Welker. We may not re-sign Welker, but that would not be because Welker is poor fit, as you guys suggest.

Revise the question:
Where is the Patriots' clutch execution at????
Yet, Lloyd has more yards per catch than either Hernandez or Welker. And has more first down catches than any player on the team. Absolute hot garbage.
