Actually you did.
I posted a rather lengthy and long winded argument detailing how Green being the extremely talented WR can in fact cause some bad decisions by, not only Dalton but even the coaches.
I even provided evidence of this happening in the AZ game. In which Green was the target due to who was covering him and being one on one. Green had a shot at making the catch. He didn't. We lost that game. Our record was 12-4 that year, winning that game would have made us 13-3 and the 2nd seed.
Your response? "I bet 31 teams would love to have Green holding back their QB"!
That doesn't refute what I said at all. Yes a lot of teams would love to have Green. However if Green were a member of the Patriots and he performed at the level he did against Buffalo or against SD in the Playoffs, people would be critical of Green and not Tom Brady, as they should.
I will mention Houston again. As I have mentioned that pass that could have given us the lead, if NE and Tom Brady threw that pass, NO ONE would assume that Brady made a mistake. However we give Green the benefit of the doubt that it must/could have been Dalton that threw a wild pass.
