Just a few thoughts on the recent Wes Welker accusations of him intentionally hitting Talib and completely taking him out of the game. Here's the thing, the only intentional shot out of this whole scenario came from the mouth of Bill Belichick when he said that Wes Welker's hit was intentionally on Talib, and that it was the worst play he'd ever seen. We all know Bill's a sour puss whether he wins or loses a game, but that remark was just outright stupid, and it made him look like a sore loser. Did anyone catch the handshake between Welker, and Belichick after the game Sunday?
When they showed this on television it had to be the coldest thing I'd ever seen in my life. Welker was lucky he didn't get frostbite from that handshake.
At first I agreed with what Bill said in the statement, of course me being a bias Pats fan, but after a few days, and seeing all the people agreeing with Bill, and all their negativity towards Wes Welker, the man who did so much for us, I became ill. The crap people say about this dude is sickening. Bill Belichick, and Pats fans need to stop being bitter over stupid stuff like this. If they were going to send someone out to hit Talib wouldn't they send out someone a foot taller, and possibly 40 lbs heavier? Of all people, Welker? I don't think so. Bill Belichick needs to learn how to take losses, coach better in bigger games, and stay less focused on his cheap shots after losing the AFC Championship games 2 years in a row.
As for Brady saying he's not watching the Super Bowl? Don't be an asshole, Brady. I apologize for using that language, but we all know come Sunday you'll be sitting in your mansion in California (that has a moat), quietly in your man cave, wearing your Patriots Wes Welker jersey, and rooting for one of your best friends in the game. Why be a poor sport? Not to mention he's going up against the big mouth Richard Sherman who you had some minor beef with last season, and what would be fulfilling than watching on of your best friends (Wes Welker) win something you were never able to give him? Tom, I really hope you use this as some kind of motivation for next year. I hope this leaves a bad taste in your mouth, as well as Bill's, because just as much as you hate losing, and not going to the Super Bowl, the fans hate it that much more. Technically it's not about us, it's about the team, but I can't help thinking you've become nothing more than a new age Donovan McNabb. Bring your team that close, but don't get to the big one. You're better than that. You're better than most. You have all the potential to be the best that's ever played (you are arguable the best there is right now).
Let it be known that there is no other QB/Coaching duo in the league right now that is better than Brady, and Belichick, and I wouldn't want it any other way.
We need a change, and currently in the Patriots organization that's what you're seeing. Pepper Johnson currently departed from the team, and he's been with Bill Belichick for a very long time. Dante Scarnecchia has also left the Patriots organization after 30 years with the team. Lastly the TE coach Godsey who went to the Texans to work with their new coach Bill O'Brien. So as you see things are changing up a little bit around there. We still could also see Josh McDaniel's take the Browns head coaching job next season too. No offense to McDaniel's but I'd love for him to be anywhere but New England.
This off season I think the Patriots need to really think hard about their future, and really pick up on some key free agents. I'm not saying go out and pick up the best names in the league, but I think they should really consider signing some proven players. I think they have to keep Edelman. Why make the same mistake twice? I'll post later on once free agency hits who I think the New England Patriots should make a run after. We know it's never their busiest time of year, but something's telling me that they're going make some kind of move.
Hope everyone enjoys their offseason.
Go Pats!
