Video: The Wes Welker drop that probably cost the Patriots the Super Bowl

Welker dropped a huge pass. Hernandez dropped a huge pass. Patriots got a penalty for too many men on the field. Brady threw a bomb earlier in the game that was intercepted. Take your pick, mistakes all around. You can't point all blame on a single person.

Quit playing the blame game. You play as a team, you lose as a team.

What about Branch and Hernandez dropping first down passes in the Pats last drive?

You win as a team and lose as a team, nuff said.

The Pats did not lose that game because of one play. And anyone who tries to boil their loss down to a one-play sound-bite that blames an outstanding athlete like Welker is a doink.

This was a huge play for the Gmen. Major turning point. Welker is a great player that almost never misses!!!!!!

Another idiot sports writer trying to create an article out of nothing!!!

To be fair to Wes Welker, it was not a great throw. He is paid a lot to catch passes, but Tom Brady is paid more to make good throws.

Genius call by tom caughlin to run the clock out by purposely putting 12 men on the field

I'm writing this as a Giants fan, but stay the hell off Welker! He's one of the classiest guys who ever played the game!

Maybe I am biased since I am a Colts fan, but does it seem like everytime Tom Brady loses a game people make all the excuses in the world for him? You win as a team, you lose as a team.

Welker is one of the greats but that was hardly a routine catch.

Welker dropped a pass that was BADLY thrown in my opinion!! You can't blame one player for this loss!! There were other errors by many other players. Win together. Lose together. Wes, you're still my favorite Patriot. Keep your head up.

Lets blame Welker for the Pats loss. Lets give Brady a pass for giving up 2 points on an intentional grounding penalty in his endzone. Lets give Brady a pass for his ill advised throw that led to an interception that killed what was looking like a really good drive. Lets give Brady a pass for throwing the ball behind Welker on that dropped pass. On the very next play, Lets give Brady a pass for a poorly thrown ball to Branch, that resulted in an another incomplete pass and a punt. Lets forget that Welker had some nice catches where Brady didn't make the greatest of throws. An entire 60 minute football game came down to one mistake by Welker where all the mistakes by Brady didn't matter.

Why does everyone blame the receiver? Am I the only one who thought it was a horribly thrown ball - thrown behind the receiver? This "missed catch" was on Tom Brady - not Wes Welker.

guess firing that guy saturday night really paid off.

Funny how no site is mentioning the obvious missed pass interference that caused the Giants to punt. If they score on that drive, the game isn't this close.

Stop making excuses for why wussy Tommy didn't win!

karma for cutting that wide reciever the night before the SB. lolo

honestly i absolutely hate the patriots and i always root against them unless they are playing the steelers, but this is in no what welkers fault . He played like a champ out there, and there were multiple dropped passes in needed situations by 2 other receivers (branch and hernandez). get off welkers back.
