Welker told Broncos: We’re the best offense ever, start showing it

[DocHoliday]

Just a reminder to the Weasel apologists who praise his regular season performances as compensation for his post season failures. Both Troy Brown before him and Edelman this year put up similar numbers during the regular season and were able especially in the case of Brown excel in the games that really matter. IMO, any good slot receiver playing with a HOF QB in this offense would put the same numbers as the Weasel did. So the only exceptional things he did in the post season was to fail to make the two catches that really mattered and cheap shot the Pats DB. I hardly think that would qualify him as a Pats great

What Wes could do threading in and out of LBs catching passes inches off the ground is something neither Edelman nor Brown could do.

It was never Wes' fault the offense centered and ended with him. To blame him for the offensive shortcomings of the team is idiotic at best.

This is not a shot at Edelman. It's saying they do different things and Wes was simply the best at what he did.

Interestingly enough, Wes today isn't utilized the exactly the same way he was with the Pats. I think they try to use him more as an all around possession receiver which is what that offense needs but doesn't obviously play to his strength.

All that said I dislike him now but once I've gotten over the whole Talib thing (and especially seeing the Broncos lose in such spectacular fashion) I think I will look favorably upon him when he retires.

I hope years from now people remember Wes as a Patriot, and the whole Broncos thing a little short chapter before retirement.

I get your point and its unfortunate that the two passes in his direction that meant the most were not at shoe top level. However my expectations are that even a midget slot receiver can jump enough to catch a slightly high pass like in the Sb or one that hits him between the numbers in the AFC title game.
Let me give you a further observation about Boston sports fans from someone who has been around since the 50's. If you win for us you are golden like Troy Brown but if you cause us to lose like Buckner you are dead to us. Buckner has a better chance of getting into the Sox HOF than the weasel be welcomed in Boston. Take it to the bank.

I was just coming in here to post about this. I watched that SFX clip and thought it was hilarious. Then Peyton telling Wes on the sideline that he needs him to make that catch because nothing's easy out there. I just loved this SB.
