they have the third best air attack in the league. here is more from baltimore. >> looking -- moore has it at the goal line. touchdown, new england. >> tom brady where am i going to throw it to randy moss? >> you're talk about a true professional in the way he plays the game and he's surrounded with crazy talent. >> while ray lewis rand the ravens call tom bayday one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time, there wouldn't be a quarterback history without one of his biggest weapons. wes welker has him sitting along with his nfl leading 123 catches. the ravens defense isn't ready to change the game plan. >> i don't think it's real limiting. he's a great player. he's a looming receiver. he's done things in this league that haven't been done before, but they do a great job with personnel and they have weapons all over the place and nettleman is very similar. he doesn't have wes' experience, but he has

tremendous talent. obviously, we have confidence in him. the challenge remains the same. >> it don't change not a bit the way we prepare. if you look at the young guy 11 coming in the game, he's kind of the mold of wet welker. of course, he's not him, but he has a great chemistry with tom brady. >> they do a great job no matter whether wes is in there or not of change up from week to week. i think they do a great job attacking weaknesses, strengths, whatever it might be. that's just what they do. >> defensive coordinator greg mattieson told me the team is well prepared for wide receiver julian ethelman. back in week four when the ravens-patriots played, welker was banged up and they expected to see a lot of edellman. he told me he doesn't expect the patriots offense to change at all. just the players. back in the week four matchup, edellman fin wished one catch and 12 yards. for the ravens in owings mills, brent harris, comcast

now you have thissed to -- this to come behind and to compound your entire being of a person is totally in question right now. that, i think, is something that is going -- going to hurt him as far as other teams look at him considering him as an nba player. i really don't think it's going to happen for him at this point. >> how about this? this is a print advertisement for peta, the peet people for the ethical treatment of animals. gilbert fredi gonzalezing without his shirt. it reads "ink, not mink." it was released yesterday. how about that for timing? arenas is not the first athlete to pose and support petea. tony gonzalez famously reent recently did this with his wife. the wizards season rolls on without gil. tomorrow, the rest of the team heads to the orlando magic. they'll have a live report at 6:30 on "geico sportsnite". coming up in mere moments here on the network, green
