Eh, Welker doesn't scare me.
Either Manning is healthy all season - in which case the Broncos were going to wax us anyway, or he isn't, in which case Welker's just another decent player that Tom Brady made wealthy and we'll be able to overtake Denver. Welker isn't a difference maker for the Broncos at all, IMO.

Again, with Manning, the Broncos are already a better team than KC and will kick our ass. What they do in the playoffs beyond that is immaterial to me since I, y'know, don't give a wet fart about the Broncos. Without Manning, the Chiefs can (and will) beat the Broncos, Welker or no Welker. From a Chiefs standpoint, Welker just doesn't matter.

Dude, we have Brandon Flowers and they have Thomas, Decker and now Welker. Unless we find a way to get 2 more starting quality corners, we aren't gonna beat Denver this year or next. |

With Manning, we were going to get our asses kicked with our without Wes Welker. Without him, the Broncos aren't that worrisome.

Now Peyton has the most dangerous slot receiver to ever play the game, in a pass first offense with the most cerebral QB to ever play the game. If you aren't threatened by that, you're smoking something. Do you remember what Manning and Stokley did early on? Now Imagine a player 10 times better taking Stokley's role. Quote:

Well, if you put it that way, its less debatable. It all depends on what happens with the Patriots slot situation, do they sign Amendola or Edelman? If they sign edelman, they are far less ****ed. |

Wes Welker is an overrated possession receiver. He's Davone Bess with an elite QB. But hey, you're welcome to take him over Megatron, Green, Jones, Marshall....Bowe; whatever. The guy's decent, but he's not a world-beater. The development of Demaryius Thomas will have a great impact on that offense than plugging in Wes Welker for Brandon Stokely.

He's an excellent slot guy who's quick out of his breaks and has great hands... but without other players helping keep the heat off of him, he's easily accounted for and contained. He's a great complementary player, but not a true difference maker who can line up anywhere and consistently win that battle. |

I think you'll be hard pressed to find 3 other teams with a better "4" in their passing attacks.

49-3 Giants beat Montana/Rice in playoffs. Never pin a loss on one guy unless it's truly egregious. It makes no sense at all.

The truth is any team can stop Welker whenever they want. Put a CB on him and then do not blitz the Lbers and keep them in the middle and shallow. When Welker comes on his crossing route you knock the dog shit out of him. Now you can do this but if your LBers are playing Welker then there will be a big hole in the medium middle of the field for TE seem routes and Thomas and Decker crossing routes. Any team will be able to stop Welker this year, but it is not a good game plan that is for sure. |
