WHY, WHY WHY?? Use Troy?

[Gumby]

God I love the man (as a player - lets not get carried away here). Troy was tremendous yesterday.

But WHAT ON EARTH possessed the pats to use him not ONCE, NOT TWICE, BUT on THREE OCCAISSIONS as the deep ball threat?????

were they just using him to set up the one strike to Reche late?

I mean Troy is great; but he is 35 and old and slow (comparatively). Why the heck was he in there running the deep route instead of Chad or Reche or Jabar (ok he ran it one time).

Every time Troy ran that route he got exactly 2 inches of separation. I just dont understand.

How about cause he's a rock solid veteran who knows the ins and outs of making a catch in traffic or even drawing the PI? Just a guess........
