Uh, no.
01 ~ "receiving corps" is quite clearly and explicitly just short for "wide receiving corps" as any 4 Year Old knows. By choosing that term, you explicitly excluded Gronkowski and Vereen.
02 ~ If you wanted to say "Passing Game", then perhaps you should've said...oh I don't know..."Passing Game"??
Ain't too complicated, my friend.

How in the hell do you ignore this YET AGAIN:
Until you actually address this, this argument is over.
It's no coincidence that the Patriots offense dropped off a fricken cliff once TOM BRADY got injured.
Oh really? Please quote when you addressed it.I didn't ignore this. I addressed this multiple times.
NFL.com disagrees with you as they list TEs as part of receiving corps.

It would be nice if you knew what you were talking about.

Dude!! You just quoted Bucky Brooks!!
He's not the only moron to fail FootBall 101, though, so don't feel bad.
You're clearly one of the morons who failed.
Given @Off The Grid's work here these past 5 years, eccentric yes (ok, batshit crazy), but a moron he most certainly is not. He's one of the more entertaining and football educated posters here.You're clearly one of the morons who failed.

You should rethink that statement.
This year's team faced its share of injuries down the stretch.
There ya go, Sport. A Link to spell it out for you.
The Site's name is literally FootBall 101!! For the Developmentally Challenged!!
Definition: An offensive player who lines up on or near the line of scrimmage, but split to the outside. His primary job is to catch passes from the quarterback.
Also Known As: receiver, wideout, split end, flanker
*But you go right on pretending that Tight Ends are on that list, Sport, if it makes you feel better!!
Huh? This was the healthiest playoff and healthiest Super Bowl Patriots squad that I can remember.
Wes Welker in his prime was nearly uncoverable within 10/15 yards on the inside. How many times did we see him catch a ball through traffic inches off the ground over and over and over again?
Edelman is a more versatile player, plays better on the outside, and might be overall superior, but Welker in the slot >>>>>>>>>> Edelman in the slot and it's not even close.
The only thing Edelman has over Welker in the slot is that little get hit, spin a little, and jump for five more yards close to the ground thing he does.
Edelman was battling a hip injury at the end of the season, he and Amendola likely both sustained concussions in the SB, Stork missed a game and a half due to a knee injury and wasn't 100% against Seattle.
I remember Neal being injured in 2007 but he started all playoff games. Brady had an ankle sprain and was in a walking boot for a couple of days but seemed fine after that. There was no noticeable limp. He wasn't hobbling around like Rodgers was this year.
All teams are beat up at the end of the season. These excuses are starting to become dangerously similar to the ones Peyton defenders use to down play his playoff record.
The facts:
1. That offense performed worse than the 2014 offense against top defenses (regular season + playoffs)
2. That team's passing offense was atrocious in the postseason while 2014's was incredible and pretty much unstoppable
3. That team failed to win a championship
The facts
1. Cherry pickin stats. If you're lookin at stat, compare overall ones for the year and 07 is all - time great while '14 isn't even the best this year. But why tell the whole story!
2. Keep ignoring how weak the postseason secondaries 14 faced were, and fact that TOM BRADYS INJURY affected them.
3. I completely forget that Welker and moss were covering tyree on that final possession. Edelmans ability to pick off russel Wilson at the 1 is the difference between these two great offenses.
4. You're not very intelligent. You started following the pats in 2009, this is the best team you've ever seen so you just wanna be bold about it. You love that you have almost 200 replies so you wanna keep repeating your statement and ignoring any points you can't argue till this thread is greatest in patsfan history!
