However Welker was smiling when he did his Rex Ryan jokes and got suspended a quarter of a playoff game for it.

With that being said,I doubt anything here is going to affect anything within the team.

Probably the worst coaching move of BB to bench WW for that playoff game against the jests

You're comparing apples and oranges.

That was a case of tweaking an opponent before a game.

Horrible comparison.
 
re: Wes Welker: "It's nice to stick it in Bill's face every once in a while"

I don't think any deal can be made until after this season.

They can't talk extension?

Even if they can't do it officially,they need to sit and discuss plans into 2013 anyway,this guy is the heart of the receiving corps,he was before these great TEs arrived and he still is.
 
re: Wes Welker: "It's nice to stick it in Bill's face every once in a while"

This will not cause a stir with the team. Welker keeps producing, Welker will play and Tom will throw it to him.
 
re: Wes Welker: "It's nice to stick it in Bill's face every once in a while"

If anything he contradicted himself by saying this. First 2 weeks he said it was nothing specific to phase him out and its just part of game plan and there are other people catching the ball. Maybe he said it in jest but totally unnecessary distraction showing up the coach like this especially when you know the boston media loves to tear this team and coach down when they can. Just my opinion.
 
re: Wes Welker: "It's nice to stick it in Bill's face every once in a while"

I really wish he didn't say that.

Tomorrow
Q: Coach, What do you have to say about welker's comments?
A. You have to ask him about that .I cant answer that.

Q. Wes, Is there a point you wanted to prove to Bill with that remark ?
A. I was taken out of context .blah blah blah
 
re: Wes Welker: "It's nice to stick it in Bill's face every once in a while"

If Belichick cares more about a minor comment on a short video than sending your best out to win games then he needs to separate matters off the field with on the field first.......I don't think Belichick will do anything but maybe even snicker over it.

Dont think he will but only lends credence to the stupid theory that welker was in the doghouse because he didnt agree to a contract. The local media is going to write all kind of nonsense about this again esp now since we have moved past that.
 
re: Wes Welker: "It's nice to stick it in Bill's face every once in a while"

When I watched it, I thought that Welker might be referring to Belichicks known propensity to focus on the negative things.

That said.. I don't trust the media. They operate at the lowest common sensationalist denominator.

Ive seen less made into more.

Welker on 13 catches: 'Nice to stick it in Bill's face'

Kidding or not,a bit of the frustration Welker must have gone through shines a bit out in the open in this video

Welker tells it as it is,you gotta love his honesty

I would say I never hope for injury to any player,especially on this team but the loss of Edelman was actually a gain the past few weeks.

Welker was clearly being facetious as you can tell by the slight smile and then the wink...

They CAN talk extension. However, it can only be signed on the day after the last REGULAR season game. Peviously, I believe that teams had to wait until the end of the Play-offs to sign players previously under the Franchise tag to an extension.

This is according to the CBA, Article 10, Section 2 (k).

Perhaps,but like others said......you know the Boston media will blow it up.

I still think its bugging Wes not to have a contract,I believe his heart is REALLY with the Patriots and does not want to leave here but might if he seeks a contract the team will not commit to a true slot receiver.

O.k.,that's cool....now they need get it done by late January and prove the media wrong that Welker is a goner for sure as they all say.

It would be a dream to see a Welker extension before the AFCCG should the team make it that far.

Then why pay attention to them? Plenty of other places to go to get the news/info you want besides the local market.

pretty sure that Welker and BB have a good enough relationship to give each other a little nudge.
 
re: Wes Welker: "It's nice to stick it in Bill's face every once in a while"

Well you never know when BB will "lose that lockerroom", because as of right now, the Patriots HATE their coach, right?

After giving it some thought, you are probably right. It won't effect them although we still will have to hear it from the media. I think that's what I am annoyed about, that I will have to continue hearing this crap.

I could see Bill telling Wes and warning him in the future to not to give the media anything to stir the pot with...other than that,I don't see it affecting the relationship between player and coach.

I don't see anything coming from this either. Coach Belichick is known for a wicked good sense of humour, and since none of us really knows what's going on between Welker and the team, if ANYTHING is going on between them, I'm inclined to see this as a bit of levity that cracked the stoic facade we always see from this team.

I still think it's funny, and I don't see anything coming from this at all.

Other's MMV, of course.
