Not at all. The only pass catchers healthy by week 5 will be Hoo Man and Matthew Slater.

I give about 60% credit for Brady's success in his old, fart, crone years in Boston to Welker.I'm sure Welker will suddenly be good now that he's on the Broncos.
He's no Law Firm.
I don't know what you're saying with those commas. Are you calling Brady an old fart or some other meaning I cannot possibly decipher?
Anyway Welker was certainly a big part of the success, no doubt about it. But I know how hard it is to give Brady any ounce of respect, even if he deserves it.

I thought last year he had fumble-itis relative to his snaps?

Maybe not before last season you mean.
He had 3 fumbles in 6 games played, 1 untouched. Most he's ever had in a season since his second year, when he had 3.
Dude isn't a fumbler.
Three fumbles in 182 attempts last year. 9 in 864 attempts in his career.
vs.
Three fumbles in 278 attempts last year. 3 in 788 attempts in his career.
Also Law Firm isn't a dick with a screw loose. Yeah he's no Law Firm.

No bonuses?
While it's not as hilarious, the average yearly salary is nearly top 10 RB right? I guess the devil will be in how the contract pays out over that 4 years.

So not before last season then? Gotcha.

Didn't see that coming... Just because of the playoff run or what?
Also, more reasons for why the Dolphins wanted a replacement for Dansby:

Hey! You guys finally have an actual RB (again). Congrats ;P.
I'm the only one who can effect a smug asshole persona on here. So quit it!
Even last season, when the Law Firm had obviously the worst fumble problems of his career he wasn't as bad as Mendenhall.
Sign everybody!
Can't wait to hear all summer about the Broncos and the NFC West. At least the AFC East is pretty bad

It sure is.

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
$4 million signing bonus.
I'm sorry <3 It's all in jest!
It's true. Get SportsScience on that!
He isn't Blaine Gabbert.
Nice.
Packer fans remember this differently.
It is a miracle he did not fumble it more often the way he held the ball.
Reggie Bush isnt the type of RB to take you to the next level. There you've been grounded back to reality

Another RB signed.
4.5 million guaranteed.

Oh that's just sad.

He did hold it like a loaf of bread.
I just think it's stupid that the Cards getting Mendenhall for a song on a one year deal is a bad idea.

He had a bit of an issue with it when he first got to the Burgh, especially in the preseason. It kind of leveled off and then reappeared last year. Anyway, he fumbled in the biggest game of his life. Yeah, the line got blown up, but the dude still fumbled and I always hated the way he held that friggen ball away from his body like it was a can of depleted uranium.

Welker to the Broncos is a smart move for Denver (assuming it happens). They weaken a potential playoff opponent + upgrade their slot receiver position. Stokley was solid last yr but Welker gives them more speed + production at that spot.
Pats and Danny Amendola make too much sense not to happen. Smart Welker replacement for significantly less.....IF he stays healthy. I feel like Simmons naming Matt Stafford If He Stays Healthy (before Stafford's run the last two years) should be applied to Amendola. Good player when he's on the field.
Still if you're the Pats....you've got injury concerns with Gronk, Hernandez to a lesser extent, and now potentially Amendola. Brady can mask a lot of problems with receivers but if anyone remembers the Reche Caldwell experience I'm sure Pats fans dont want to relive that.

I seriously can't believe he got more than the minimum. Dude is fucking garbage.

That's Mendenhall's problem. Dude picked the absolute worst time to fumble and now he's got that reputation.
Game was lost by that point regardless though.

How long do you have Stokely locked up?

nice. All those bandwagon Niner fans can pull out their old Raider Woodson jerseys.
Might as well be Rod Woodson the way Packers fans have trashed him over the past few years.
Edit: How the fuck did I get punked on the Woodson joke. Fuck off Ninja Scooter!
