Wes Welker watch 2013

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

The Pats are just fine without Welker, they don't look foolish for letting him go. They do look foolish for wasting money on any overrated slot receiver. Amendola was a stupid signing from the start, especially for almost the same price as Welker, and I said as much.

But they look really shaky and squeaky without Welker!

They might as well rename themselves the New England Squeaker-Shakers with all the squeaking and shaking!

[Blake]

"shaky" 5-1
so far the only thing they've lost with Welker was moral victories over how "shaky" they look
continuing to argue the strawman with me as if I said I agreed with replacing Welker with Amendola

So what was the point of this bet again?

So what was the point of this bet again?

It was regarding Welker being a product of Tom Brady. I said all along I'd take Welker over Amendola.

I'm all ears of you wanna cancel/amend the bet (I know you're ahead but it's basically a dead heat right now). A season long bet that's gonna come down to a few yards is pretty dumb imo.

That's what I meant, just didn't say it right.

Pats already had Edelman. Why spend that much cash on amendola? And if you're going to spend that much on a slot receiver, why not spend the extra couple million and keep the greatest slot receiver of all time?

The same reason Belichick cut someone most would consider a top 10 punter in the NFL in favor of a below average punter to save less than a million in cap space he wasn't gonna use. He over-obsesses with "value" instead of putting the best team on the field.

Yeah if they wanted to waste money on a slot receiver, and the choice was Amendola or Welker at roughly the same price, then there's no doubt Amendola was a stupid decision. But that doesn't change the fact that Welker is a horribly overrated player and that i'm still 100% happy he's not in NE anymore.

Also cutting Fells and Ballard because ass Sudfeld had a couple decent preseason games.

Ballard I agree but Fells in sucked I didn't mind that at all.

I wish they had an undrafted free agent safety dominate the preseason so BB would have cut got ass Steve Gregory.

I think he ends with 1100+, but I'm cool with canceling.

If it were Avante, I'd say no to the ol to watch him Welch.

K it's cancelled.

I hated paying close attention to how Welker did every week and squirming every time he made a catch

[spurraider21]

Did those wins count for less because they "squeaked" them out

I wasn't aware the Patriots had to worry about their BCS standings. Must not have gotten that memo.

Nice strawman. Their poor play from the receiving core has been hindering their passing game. Trying to state otherwise is bull

[Blake]

i'm still 100% happy he's not in NE anymore.

so is Peyton i reckon.

[ColinB]

Love Bolden's face in this gif.

[spurraider21]

7 game totals of 44 catches, 474 yards, and 8 touchdowns

on pace for:

101 catches, 1083 yards, 18 touchdowns

[Fabbs]

Over/under 1,000 yards. I have under Blake has over.

Looks like you will prevail due to injury.
Otherwise would have been close.

Bet was mutually cancelled awhile back tbh.

[spurraider21]

everything patriots fans said about Welker was vindicated when he the bed against them this year. all along pats fans said you can't trust him in a big game/moment, and in the biggest game of the year for denver he played like .

i still find it funny that they "finally got rid of" Welker only to replace him with mini Welker (Edelman) and Welker 2.0 (Amendola) though

[monosylab1k]

I hated the Amendola signing the moment it happened. Even moreso when it was for basically the same amount as Welker's deal. I didn't want Welker back and i'm still happy without him, but signing Amendola was a pointless waste of money.

[spurraider21]

^true. i recall you calling that move out the day the signing was announced, and you were right. i even think it was you who said they might as well roll with edelman in that role.

[Spur|n|Austin]

Anybody plugging Tamme this weekend in the Fantasy Playoffs in Welker's role?

[Blake]

there was also an injury clause for both Welker and Manning

Did you angrily throw your bottle of Tom n Giselles Hair Gel against the wall?
