Had the chance to finally catch Wes Welker‘s A Football Life and as expected it was a really good one. Unfortunately the biggest thing it left me with was feeling sad about how things ended for Welker in New England and how many Patriots fans can’t bring Welker up without mentioning that play in Super Bowl 46.

That play was a significant part of this episode and it was heartbreaking to hear how badly it affected Welker and how hard it was for him to get over it. That play overshadowed what was a remarkable career by a player who redefined a position in the NFL. Seeing Welker circa 2007 and remembering how much I loved watching him play back then was a nice reminder of what a beloved player he was early in his Patriot days.

A Look Back: The 2009 Saints Massacre

If you have yet to see the entire two-part Bill Belichick A Football Life, stop reading and watch it above immediately. Or for the purposes of this post you can just click play and it will queue right up to maybe the most infamous loss of the Belichick era thanks to NFL Films’ documenting it from the inside.

I am of course talking about the 2009 loss to the Saints in New Orleans by a glaring 38-17 score. The most famous part of this loss was recorded by the cameras as Belichick lamented not being able to get the 2009 team to play the way they needed to, that it had nothing really to do with the Saints and was mostly on the Patriots’ inability to overcome any adversity.

Eight years later we have a good perspective on the 2009 season now and I thought it would be a fun little look back at a terrible game that came in maybe the worst season under Belichick.

NFL Films: Two Part Belichick Special Coming in September

Bill Belichick: A Football Life will premier on NFLN on Thursday 9/15 at 9pm EST, part two will air Thursday 9/22. You can click the link above for a preview.

They followed BB and had him miked for all of 2009, and they tease glimpses of 4th and 2, as well as what he and TFB were talking about on the sideline after Brady had been pulled from the Saints mauling. Words cannot express how excited I am for this one. And right after the season starts? I might combust that week.

Now I’m just waiting for Missing Rings: 2007 Patriots from NFL Films. Alright, now I must watch this preview seven more times.
