Patriots quarterback Tom Brady misses having receiver Wes Welker as his security blanket on the field. "Anytime you have Wes out there, it helps," Brady told the Boston Herald. "He's led league in receptions over the course of the last two years. Anytime you substitute anybody in for him, it's tough; there's only one Wes Welker, so hopefully he's out there (today). "He's a guy that adds a lot to this offense. I know he's working hard to get back." Having Welker against Baltimore's blitz-heavy defense on Sunday would make Brady much more comfortable.
