Welker’s Still Practicing, and other news…
Two more days of media access to OTAs this week. Let’s hope we stay injury free and maybe hear a little more about Tyrone McKenzie, Patrick Chung and Brandon Tate (aka this years x-factors). Early word is already out that Welker is back out there again, practicing as he did last week. This is a good sign, clearly he hasn’t had a setback and should continue to get better as we close in on training camp.
The season predictions are starting to roll in and, as we expected, the Jets are the sexy pick in the AFCE. Some people even have the Dolphins over the Pats, calling the Patriots “looking vulnerable” or saying they “just doesn’t ring like recent Patriots groups”. Well, last year at this time it looked like Bruschi and Seymour would be 2009 Pats, so in reality last years team wasn’t much different than the 2010 will be.
2009 was ground zero in the rebuilding process of the defense and they still won the AFC East. I don’t know how much better the Dolphins and Jets will truly be, but I feel extrememly confident that the Patriots will be significantly better, more experienced, hungrier, with an offense that will be as dangerous as anyones.
Cromartie Reality Check
Look at the physical, reckless style that Cromartie plays with. Such effort. Such enthusiasm.

In honor of the Welker Miracle I found this “signed” authentic Welker throwback jersey for $99. Are we certain it’s an authentic signature? Nope, but $99 for an authentic all-sewn throwback is a great deal even if it was fake. And who knows, the autograph might be real.

Breer got himself kicked out of a practice for his early tweet that Welker was back, but he’s clearly been all over this story. Some really interesting new info:
Tom Brady and Welker’s respective knee surgeries were quite different. While it had been reported widely that Brady’s MCL healed on its own, I was told that was not the case. His MCL was torn in an area where it couldn’t heal naturally to the bone, and needed to be surgically repaired.
The Pats are going to have a hard decision to make at the start of training camp. With three divisional opponents in their first four games having Welker back at the start would be greatly beneficial. Perhaps the early bye will be a blessing as he’ll have a chance to rest in case he’s not quite there yet.
I found this piggy bank for sale today, I think it’s safe to say it would need to be a little bigger or quarters only to actaully hold enough change for a game ticket. It did remind me how I’m still undecided on what game to attend this year, I always feel like the home opener is a fun on to hit. But right now the favorites are at San Diego or at home vs. the Jets.
