Just quit replying so the thread can continue.

You are the idiot who said Welker was a flop everywhere before Brady. I showed you that by his third season he had very respectable numbers. 67 catches is not a "flop" by anyone's standards. Which is surely why NE was interested in him. Respond on the merits.

Flop may have been harsh, I'll admit that. But he was a special teamer struggling to stay on the roster and almost got cut (again) before his magical 2006 season.

Let me ask you this, do you think Welker would have become a HOF player in Miami? No. Most likely a far cry from it. Brady made him a HOF'er.

Brent, we're certainly on the same page that playing on a great team with a great QB will help any receiver. But of course it can work the other way too, a great receiver can improve any QB. So it's really hard to say in almost any case who made who better. I suspect Welker was on his way to being very very good, but beyond that it's hard to know.

Hard to argue with that my friend, well said. Heck, Welker could have killed it in Miami for all we know. I would say it's more difficult to have a great receiver make a decent qb great. Didn't work with Moss is Oakland, but then again he didn't seem to care nor try lol.

Some players are made from the systems they are put in, and if you remove them from that, they may not succeed.

Moss did make Cassell look pretty good for a season though.
