Whenever the Patriots find themselves facing an aggressive defense, Tom Brady looks to Wes Welker. Kevin Walsh looks at how that duo might find success in their biggest game of the season.
On Monday night, New England will face the Houston Texans, the number one blitzing defense in the NFL. The Texans blitz on 43 of their plays.
The Patriots love to run short, quick screen passes and when you combing those types of plays with Welker's speed and agility, you get a formula to slow down the aggressive Houston defense.
The entire Patriots locker room recognizes the value and versatility that Welker brings to the New England offense, and they're hopeful that will add up to a national television victory over the top team in the AFC.
