BOO YAH!!! :rocker:
Let me add this:
1 ~ Wes Welker is the best Slot End in the history of the Galaxy. Agreed?? Agreed!!
2 ~ In Pursuit of Winning Championships, Domination of the Center of the ChessBoard is most vital.
3 ~ As a Slot End ~ the very best of'm!! ~ Wes Welker has been essential to that Pursuit.
4 ~ Yet the phenomenal Ascension of G+H ~ that's "Gronkowski + Hernandez", to those scoring at home!! ~ has ~ astonishing but true ~ rendered Welker's dominance of the Center of the ChessBoard...redundant.
5 ~ This is all the more true because Brother Wes is only a Passing Threat: As he is a mediocre Run Blocker, his presence tips our hand to "Pass", giving the Defense an enormous competitive edge against us in Late Winter.
6 ~ To Get Over The Hump ~ Read: expand our Offense Horizontally, allowing us to Spread The Field against Elite D's like the 2010 Jets and 2011 Giants ~ it's not enough to dominate the Center of the ChessBoard if we completely neglect the Perimeter of the ChessBoard, as we have for 24 months...And the Salary Cap dictates that addressing the Perimeter of the ChessBoard ~ as we MUST, if we're interested in actually WINING Super Bowls ~ requires that we ease off on expenditure ELSEWHERE.
7 ~ Here's the Good News: G+H aren't due for raises until 2014.
8 ~ That means that we've got 24 months ~ 24 SWEET MONTHS ~ in which to roll with Brother Wes ~ Born Patriot and Super Warrior ~ AND G+H...AND Brandon Lloyd, Jabar Gaffney, Deion Branch, and Donte StallWorth, FIELD SPREADERS...IF we so choose...I say we ROLL!!
