I guess I shouldn't be surprised by the support of Patrick Watkins after the game tonight. He played well in the most meaningless preseason game against predominantly backups.
But please, DO NOT forget that this is the EXACT kind of player that has and will cost us those close games we ALWAYS always complain about. The kind of game we lose because of a brutal mistake that takes points off the board or allows a crucial first down. The kind of mistake we always hold our breath on, yet a team like the Patriots never seem to make.
This isn't personal, this is all business but when we ***** and moan about stupid penalties in the kicking game and coverage mistakes in the secondary we are talking about him.
I feel we've done a good job in changing the culture of the team but the penalty/mistake prone "stake in the heart" dagger still lingers and it lives with a player like Patrick Watkins.
