![]() is what fear of giving up the deep ball does.
* Welker's biggest play of the game: (Moss is at the top of the photo. He has a corner 3 yards past him. The corner on Moss has underneath help from a line backer - and deep help from a safety. Meanwhile, Welker gets to stroll untouched into a HUGE space in the middle of the field at the 20. If the safety hadn't started the play by playing super deep - Welker wouldn't have so much room) ![]() * Ben Watson's biggest play of the game: (Moss is in the middle of the field & going deep. He's getting triple teamed. 3 Panther defenders have a triangle around him. Two other Panther defenders are standing at 39 and 31 yard line, towards the bottom of the screen, with their thumbs in their butt and nothing happening around them. 5 different defenders are being accounted for by either Randy Moss or open space he has created by going deep. This leaves Brady with enough time to eat a hot dog - and two excellently favorable one-on-one match-ups to exploit. Those are the type of plays that made so many BUM qb's put up all-world numbers with Moss) ![]() Anyone think Wes Welker would be 1/5th as successful as he has been in New England when he's playing on a team where opposing defenses don't respect and fear the deep ball? If you want to take Moss out of the game and triple team him early on like so .... ![]() You're probably going to accomplish that. I'm not sure it's going to help you win ... but hey, it will probably lead to Moss having a bad stats day - and give the gossip writers who call themselves football journalists reason to say he isn't trying. |

![]() Welker's best game this year was against the Jets, when Moss doesn't get double-covered because it's completely unnecessary.

![]() The Jets were trying to cover Welker with some raggity ass linebacker who couldn't defend me.
They gave up almost 100 yards to Julian Edellman in week #2 - a white guy who was Kent State's qb last year - a guy who was drafted in round #7 - and a guy who wasn't even activated for week #1. Your boy Beavis played two masterful games against Moss - good for him. The fact is - he did have deep safety help A LOT. Basically, Moss was getting doubled if he was going deep .. and anything under 20 yards Reavis stood his ground admirably. What you fail to mention is that the Jets blitzed the living sh!t of the Pats. Welker basically was one on one with a linebacker or a nickle guy the entire game - same as Edellman was. The Saints doubled both Moss and Welker and only rushed 3 guys. They basically did the opposite of the Jets - put less pressure on Brady, but force Brady to beat them with Sam Aiken and tight ends. The Saints are the only team that beat NE conclusively all year. |

where was maroney , the saints aren't exactly a team that stops the run like the 85 bears bill should have run the ball with maroney more and kept his defense off the field drugs whether moss does good or not , this defense is not carrying the pats anywhere this year |

And the Saints could've beaten the Pats rushing zero guys. They're an infinitely better team than New England. |

The Saints were infinitely better that night. They did things NE hasn't seen before .. and NE didn't adjust well to it offensively .. and defensively - they got abused. The Saints needed three of the luckiest plays I've ever seen just to force overtime and beat the Redskins. Over the course of a year - every team has great performances and lousy ones. |
