Does anyone still think Welker is a scrub?

Not a scrub, but has been put into a position to help him very much. Look at the other receivers on that team...man.

he's basically their version of Stokley when he was with the Colts. he has talent but he is not nearly as good as the system with the players around him make him look. Moss basically takes half the players on D with him and stallworth demands a lot of attention as well. welker all he has to do is catch the ball and he will get a lot of yards.

He is beating teams into submission, thats what it is all about.

No Mercy Rules in NFL

Pats are dominating NFL - clearly

You must be so happy, watching your favorite team do so well... :eek:

No - its not much fun here in Foxboro.

But it has been a great job by Pioli and BB - This Dynasty may end with a few more Super Bowls.

I still think we can beat them in a rematch with corners healthy and Barbarian starting.

I saw Moss in person earlier this year - that guy is BIG. Physically imposing and A Real freak. I can't believe we passed on him (twice).

Just get the Pats out of your minds. There's nothing good to come from watching them and grading them the rest of the year. There's nothing good to come from Cowboy fans paying any attention to them either.
It's suicide to stay on a "Patriot watch" and subconsciously or consciously measure up your team to THAT.
Let them do their thing, and we'll do our thing. It's a loooooooong way from here to February and a possible SB. Once and if it happens, and we face them in the big game, "on any given Sunday" and all that comes into play.
We got out hands full of Eagles and Commanders and Packers and Panthers. THAT is what Dallas has control over. Not what the Pats do the rest of the way.
All I know is that we were up on them in the second half. After that, it was all about momentum and "snowball effect" and all that. Anything could've happened in that game, we just go the short end of it. Like the Hagler-Hearns fight..............Hagler didn't "destroy" Hearns. It was a blow-for-blow even affair until ONE punch landed. Could'a went either way. Same with this Patriot-Cowboy game. The Patriots didn't "destroy" Dallas or beat them "into submission". It appears to be the hardest fought win for the Pats thus far.
The Pats are good, but not THAT GOOD. It's more a testament to the parity and watered down effect that free agency and salary cap has had on the rest of the league. They just happened to hold things together better than most and PRESTO...........a dominant team. Dallas is on THAT track as we speak. Keeping the "core" together long enough to "gell" and stay good for a few years.
This is just the beginning for Dallas..................Come playoff time, we just might be hitting a stride the Patriots hit several years ago.

We'll see................................
