I loved Welker. What a great player, and it’s really crappy to reduce his career to two plays. He had a monster game in SB42 and Brady didn’t see him on a few plays that would have been game changing.
That said, the drop in SB46 - my least favorite game ever - was 99% on him and not Brady.
I can't believe people try to blame him for the loss in 2012 to Baltimore because he dropped a 10-yard pass for a first down. This stuff happens all the time and is so minor in the grand scheme of things. The team played like garbage in the second half and were totally manhandled by the Ravens. To blame that game on a "momentum killer" is ridiculous. The Patriots were not the better team that day, not evev close. It's like Sammy Baugh said about whether or not the game would have been different if the Redskins had scored on their first drive: "Sure - it would have been 73-7." LoL
