the ball was catchable, but let's not make it out to be that he dropped a gimme.
Plax's winning TD catch was a gimme. Take any avg joe off the street and they could catch that ball at least 65% of the time. Any avg joe trying to catch that welker pass has like a 5% chance.

Yes, Plax's catch was a gimme before a billion viewers around the world on its biggest stage.
The reason Brady passed where he did ( behind whelker ) is because the Giants safety Kenny Philips was either going to pick it or knock whelkers head off if thrown that way... check this video out:
if you watch the video, a shorter pass to welker but in front of him would have been contested by Rolle, so really that was the only place to throw the ball as the corner bit the top curl route.
Profootballtalk reports Wes Welker's positive test for amphetamines was the result of MDMA ("Molly") that had been "cut with amphetamines."
It's the same explanation Cowboys CB Orlando Scandrick used for his positive PED test in August. "Molly" could be surpassing "Adderall" as the excuse du jour for those who run afoul of the league's performance-enhancing drug policy. Currently recovering from a concussion, Welker can't return until Week 6, as Denver is on bye in Week 4. Emmanuel Sanders is now the clear No. 2 opposite Demaryius Thomas, with Cody Latimer and Andre Caldwell fighting for snaps as the No. 3.
If you don't think Burress' TD catch was a gimme then you're just making shit up. I understand the pressure of the game and the situation is difficult to deal with, but that is as easy a catch as you'll ever see. Come on, man.

That's quite a miss. You should definitely never change.
As for Welker, he was wide open....Brady had no pressure....Philips was not going to intercept it.....the pass was off target.....if thrown right at him, game might have been over.....

He said the average Joe could catch that 65% of the time in that circumstance. I call bullshit
In order to get that much separation from the corner so that the catch was easy, first he had to run his route (all together now, the SLUGGO) and beat his man.
That kept the game competitive to that point. Giants should have won by 14
One of the biggest game changing bad penalty calls I've ever seen. The Giants almost lost because of that call. Good thing the NFL wanted to throw the officials under the bus because of the labor situation. I'm still surprised they let that clip out.
I'm guessing Cody Latimer is the guy to add now? I don't see them playing Caldwell over him. Being the 3rd WR in Peyton's O should still reap benefits.
If you banned every player in major sports for amphetamines there would be no sports. They have marked Gatorade coolers with the juice in them on every sideline. You think Lester Hayes was that hyper on his own?
Worked for me though, grabbed Welker in the 10 th rd of a 16 team draft tonight, added Caldwell in the 17th rd to start the first 4 games. 4 weeks off means less concern about another concussion too soon for Welker.
Anytime that a team loses a close game, especially if they were Â
favored, its fans who are bad sports can come up with a reason that "they didn't beat us, we beat ourselves." A missed open receiver, a dropped pass, a bad penalty call.
The excuse that gets me the most is that a defensive back dropped an easy interception. Defensive backs drop about half of the "easy" interceptions thrown to them. That's why they are defensive backs and not receivers.
Sometimes I still wonder about that strange holding call against Keith Hamilton in the 2000 Super Bowl against the Ravens. It nullified a Giants TD that would have put them right back in the game with a massive switch in momentum. Sure the Ravens had a great defense, but the Giants had put up about a hundred points in the NFC Title game.
as referring to the NATURE of the pass and catch, not what it took to get the separation, not the importance of the stage, nor anything else about the play except the pass itself. It was practically pitch and catch, beautifully thrown and right in Plax's wheelhouse.

Yeah, I'm not a big Kepler guy but I'm not sure how anyone could have taken that any other way.
Lester all hopped up, stick em all over his hands and shirt, couldn't understand a got dammed thing Hayes said but Howard kept ripping off the questions, the consummate professional...
"I'm as shocked as everyone at todays news," Welker said in an e-mail to the Denver Post. "I want to make one thing abundantly clear: I would NEVER knowingly take a substance to gain a competitive advantage in any way. Anyone who has ever played a down with me, lifted a weight with me, even eaten a meal with me, knows that I focus purely on what I put in my body and on the hard work I put in year round to perform at the highest levels year-in and year-out....
"I have never been concerned with the leagues performance enhancing or drug abuse policies because under no scenario would they ever apply to me, but I now know, that (drug-policy procedures) are clearly flawed, and I will do everything in my power to ensure they are corrected, so other individuals and teams aren't negatively affected so rashly like this."
He clearly needed a little something extra on that ball he couldn't bring in in XLVI.

Holy shitfuckballs you are continually amazingly stupid.

I agree with you, we had them on the ropes and if we score , we run them Patriots out of the building... bad for NFL and bad for TV, look at last SB, WTH would watch that once it got out of hand?

Rookie Isaiah Burse from Fresno State, is the guy to watch

Yes, he does...

no average joe could ever run a route to shake a NFL quality CB.

But now I'm being a bad sport.

The coke had more to do with it than Lester's personality.
