01.Brady played poorly.
02. The OL were abysmal.
03. The RBs weren't worth a damn today.
04. The WRs were useless.
05. I have serious reservations about reaching the promised land with Josh McDaniels as OC and his continued questionable play calling.
05. The D was pretty darn good.
06. Ryan Allen deserves the MVP award for today.
07. 4-1 isn't so bad but the style in which the O continues to stutter is.
That's really just not correct. I'm not going to beat the dead horse on the circumstances of Welker's leaving, but he is exactly the type of player the team needed today.
Welker had 72 and 77 first downs for the Patriots the last few years and doing the same thing for the Broncos. That's what he does -- he catches 7 or 8 balls a game and gets you 5 or 6 or so first downs every single game, game in and game out. You saw what one first down can do -- a couple of well timed first downs for the Bengals turned what should have been 3 and outs into long drives.
Moving the chains is everything in football. It keeps the defense rested and keeps the other guy's defense on the field and tired. This was exactly a Welker game and exactly where we missed him.
:attention2: Hmm… no really people, HMM – should we have not cut Tebow, does Terrell Suggs have a voodoo doll set of the Patriots, is Ron Borges actually Al Pacino in the movie Devil’s Advocate? :suspicious:
I was willing to chalk all these things up to really bad luck:
• Welker ends his 6 year romance with Brady and begins seeing Peyton Manning.
• Gronkowski has 5 surgeries in 10 months.
• Lloyd is revealed to be bi-polar.
• Hernandez is revealed as a murdering thug.
• Armstead was sidelined with an unknown infection.
• Donald Jones was forced into retirement by a rare kidney disease.
• Jake Ballard was unable to fully recover from microfracture surgery.
• Sudfeld turned back into a pumpkin.
• Washington who was signed to give us a big time kick returner has returned 1 kick this year in which he failed to reach the 15 yard line.
• Vereen broke his wrist on opening day.
• Amendola completely tore his groin muscle on opening day.
• Ridley fumbled his way through 4 weeks until suffering a knee injury.
• Vince Wilfork who had missed 3 games 10 years suffers his first major injury of his career and is done for the year.
:rain: The category 5 hurricane level rain that began as Brady and the offense walked onto the field for that final drive and then stopped almost immediately after a Brady pass landed perfectly on the stomach of the NFL’s token scumbag Pac Man Jones was just weird, really, really freaking weird... :jaw:
I would say that Mayo is better than Wilfork. Wilfork hasn't been very good this season either. Don't know if he was injured before his season ending injury, or if age cought up to him. But we will miss him this season. Our depths was bad at DT before his injury. Now it will be even harder to stop the run up the middle.
