RapSheet: In Depth Look at Welker’s Rehab

For those of you fooled by Welker’s appearance with Elliot Spitzer hooker in a photo at the Playboy Mansion, this article makes it pretty clear than Welker’s had an inhuman work ethic to get back on the field. Every time I read something like this I feel like week one might not be out of the question. Wow.

Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Welkers ACL

I really have no clue when to expect Welka back now. Originally I thought it was possible he could miss the entire season. Then, after reports said he was doing well, I projected a return in late October against the Vikings. Then I backed it up to week six versus the Ravens. Now? I have no idea. The fact is that with 3 of their furst 4 games in the division the Patriots must must must get off to a good start.  The week 5 bye might really help reset Welker if he plays the first four games. I think it’s a very good possibility, but first he’ll have to not be put on PUP at the start of training camp.

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.
