With these TEs and a pretty good receiving core, this team is looking good on the passing attack. Unfortunately, Dillon is on the way down and the running attack doesn't have much else. This team will still be a near playoff team, maybe 10-6.
Yeah, that was a denver/new england game. that was a helluva play by watson - bailey had NO IDEA he was about to get annihilated by a TE racing down the field and pulled up at the last second. the call on the touchback was awfully close, but was still a great effort by watson. shows the kind of player he is willing to be. lot of guys wouldn't have even tried
yeh i thought it could have gone either way...regardless it was a great hustle play...but i think watson will be a great TE in the nfl...
That was in the AFC Playoff game last year when that play happened... Yes the one where the Broncos stomped all over the defending SuperBowl Champion New England Patriots... That was a great hustle play by Ben Watson, but too bad it didnt even matter because the Broncos just scored anyway... About the Patriots this year though... I belive that they will still win the division... They still have a Solid Defense and drafting Laurence Maroney will only help that struggling rushing game from last year... Him and Corey Dillon should be a nice 1-2 punch... Also Matt Light, arguably their best offensive lineman, is back in the action... Chad Jackson will be a nice slot reciever and I belive Deion Branch is going to do even better than he did last year... Especially if they give him that contract he wants... Well thats about it... I will say that the Patriots will finish about 12-4 or 11-5 ... Dolphins will be chasing them and will probably only finish about a game behind them...
I agree with some of what you say, but you give a little too much credit to the pats, jackson is a rookie receiver and playing the slot might be a bit difficult to jump right into the nfl game, He should be eased in as a 3rd and 4th WR in the beginning to see how he adjusts, randy moss he is not, there will be chuck it up and catch in the pats offense. maroney should be the starter by the end of the season, but it is dillon's job right now. They have some turmoil on defense that has to be worked out, they lost a couple of leaders on that crew.
i wouldnt take it that far....branch will be there number 1 reciever and the main focus but i personally love ben watson...i cant remember what game last year but i think it was champ bailey who had int a pass and was lolly gaggin down the sideline and ben watson just busted his *** and ran him down from about 60 yards...he drilled him and almost caused a touchback if im not mistaking...does anyone recall that?
i was at that game! and that play was frickin amazing. bailey got the int and ran it back 99 yards then suddenly watson comes out of nowhere and lays bailey out. i was like how the hell did a tight end run that far and make the tackle? i think we need to test watson for steroids or speed or sumthin cuz that was unbelievable
