The "Blame Brady/Welker!" Canard: Last Word
Sometimes teams just lose. It's not because of a colossal blunder or an abysmal performance or a team "not showing up to play." Sometimes teams don't walk off with the trophy because the other guys are better. This is one of those times. Jackie MacMullen(via ESPN.com) , addressing a bit of a straw-man argument -- are that many Boston fans (aside from that idiot in MacMullen's alma mater, the Globe) really blaming Brady or Welker or anyone? Still: It was a nagging loose end that needed to be cinched tight by one of the deans of Boston sportswriting.
About This Tom Brady "Legacy" Stuff
Worst part of "quarterback wins" -- leads to people wondering if Brady's legacy has been diminished when he played his ass off in that game. Brady made three bad throws -- maybe 2 1/2. grounding call, long pick to Blackburn, & high throw to Welker. Broke SB record for comp. also. But since he didn't "win", he's on the downturn. Please. When a TE is your deep threat and you're forced to throw to Branch over the middle? Yahoo Sports' Doug Farrar(via Twitter)
