I, along with the entirety of New England, witnessed what could be the end of any hope of the Patriots making far into the postseason. In a freak accident the NFL's leading receiver in catches, Wes Welker, tweaked his knee tearing his ACL and MCL. Brady's go to guy this season is now out for the rest of the season and possibly part of next year. Who's to blame here you ask? Belichick for playing him in a meaningless game? Absolutely not, this is the definition of freak accident, the first quarter of a week 17 game and he tries to make a cut and his knee buckles. New England fans have to step up and face the facts, God hates us this season and gave us our time in the sun. Now he's playing a cruel joke with this stunt. Brady, who knows alot about knee injuries spoke on WEEI today:
You can't replace him, there's no doubt about that," Brady said Monday in an interview on Boston sports radio station WEEI. "There's nobody that can substitute in for Wes and think that they're going to be Wes. He is everything you ask for.
"We've got to move on and we've got to go out there and play, and everyone I think in different areas has to pick it up. I have to play better, Julian [Edelman] has to play better, Randy [Moss] has to play better, the offensive line, running backs, tight ends, we all have to do more. I think that's the commitment we have to make to one another."
These are some big shoes for little number 11 to fill.
