We need a true #1 WR first.
By the way Greg Oslen is no Vernon Davis and he should not be
mentioned after this in the same sentence as Graham or
Gronkowski.

I dont care if you had 10 more offensive weapons. Unless you fix
that OLine Cuttler is going to be on his butt holding the ball.
You cant get the ball to those weapons laying on the ground.

I tend to agree but I noticed a lot recently with the better
teams, especially NE last night a lot of times in less than 2
secs the QB has the ball out of his hands. A DL untouched can
barely get there in 2 secs so most stiffs can hold a guy up for
2 secs. The key is that Welker and Branch and Hernandez and
Gronkowski and Driver and Jennings and Nelson and Colston and
guys like that can get open when our guys can't.

Well guys,the motto holds....defense, at present anyhow, still
wins championships. Some very very good offenses fell by the
wayside this year,only one remains in the Pats and wouldn't
surprise me one little bit if the Ravens eat em alive on D. With
that in mind, we still do desperately need a couple very good
wideouts, same on the offensive line...but after that? Hit
DEFENSE with all they got! I'd rather see our team be fantastic
on D than on O. We have a QB that can get us there....he needs
protection and targets...but what I'm sure we'd all like to see
is one helluva dominant D.....get us there whosit GM!!! get us
there....

I thought the Pats D played very good against Denver.
Houston with Schaub would be playing NE next week. That game had
two good defenses.

Well we ranked 6th against the rush and 28th against the pass.
So draw your own conclusions as to what part of the defense we
need to beef up.
I'd take our 2 #3's and go cornerback ... however a T.E. in
that round wouldnt hurt either.
N.E. is putting up unreal numbers with the two T.E. set.
They are putting Hernandez in at RB and he is getting yards.
You could almost say that N.E. has given up on the WR position
outside of Walker.
Did the Packers suffer from having a week off?
Did we suffer last year from having the week off?
Did the NYG's come in fresh at Lambou with no time off?
Did the Packers come in fresh at Soldiers last year with no
time off?
Judge it for yourselves.

Certainly a big part of throwing to guys quickly is the talent
at the WR spot. But that assumes you work on that in practice
and that its in your playbook. It wasn't in Martz'.
The other part is a QB that has the arm and the confidence to
throw it into a small window. Cutler can do that but not quite
as well as Rodgers, Brees and Brady.
