Because they aren't slot receivers, they don't predominantly line up in the slot, only a fraction of their plays are they remotely even near the slot lol.

Ah. So now slot WRs are actually the most dangerous WRs in the NFL - not the guys that line up wide. The true baromoter for dangerous is not the ability to catch passes...but rather the ability to catch passes from the slot. And once again - Calvin Johnson can't do that, eh? New math, I s'pose.

Just go re-read if you want the explanation.

That's right - Wes Welker just 'gets open'. Doesn't have a premier first step. Doesn't have great hands. Just has that nebulous 'route-running' ability that you can't identify but you're just dead certain it exists. He's so unbelievably good at route running that on a simple quick out, he's able to leave poor hapless corners staring at dust clouds like Wile E. Coyote.
It has nothing to do with the system or the fact that Brady could run that offense in his sleep.
The Patriots will be just fine without Wes Welker.
