So wheres the ‘deliberate’ move to do anything but block him?

Many people are quick to accuse others of the stuff they do themselves...

I still don’t understand how such a routine block took out such a tough player?

It is illegal for a receiver to block a defensive back down field on a pass play with the ball in the air. It is like a pick in basketball, which is legal. It appears that Welker made no attempt to run a pass route.

“Pick Passes” are done every day. They are illegal, but it’s part of the game, like pitchers throwing at hitters after one of their own gets plunked.

Agreed. Does not look like a cheap shot to me. Even if it was, you get even on the field next year and not by bellyaching in a press conference.
