Drew Bledsoe: 'I think Peyton is the greatest quarterback to ever play the game'

Ever play the game"......Drew Bledsoe with some surprising comments on cowherd moments ago....wow Drew

From one great regular season Quarterback to another.....................

Drew's ego is really messing with his perception here.

Drew come on
you have a super bowl ring because of TOM BRADY

Hey, everyone is allowed to have an opinion, even if it's wrong.

Re: Bledsoe:I think Peyton is the Greatest Q.B. to...

Drew's just bitter because Brady took his job.

There's a compelling argument for that, just as there's a compelling argument for Brady, Montana, Marino, Elway, and Unitas. You're never going to 'win' that argument.

An opinion he shares with a large amount of other people. No biggie.

He's entitled to his opinion and a lot of people agree with it. I didn't read it as a shot against Brady....

I'm a huge Pat's fan (live and die with them), and Tom Brady is my favorite Patriot ever, but I still say the greatest QB I've ever seen is Joe Montana. 4-0 in SBs and had 11 tds ZERO INTs in those games, the most pressure filled games. The game against the Broncos was the most perfect game I've ever seen a QB play. 22-29, 297 yards, 5 TD, 0 interceptions in a 55-10 win over Broncos.

exhibit A: concussions do A LOT of damage.

Sometimes you are merely left with goofy thoughts and opinions.

Ooohh, that left a mark

Bledsoe is entitled to his opinion, and the idea - though I disagree - is not all that far-fetched. It's no big deal.


What was really far-fetched from that interview was Colin Cowherd's logic that because Bledsoe had a stronger arm than Joe Montana, then Bledsoe was the more talented of those two. There's a lot more to being a good quarterback than arm strength, and there's a lot more to sheer talent than arm strength as well. If it was that simple then football fans would be debating Jeff George versus JaMarcus Russell rather than Manning versus Brady.

Montana is the greatest drew

Yeah, Bledsoe was one of the most physically gifted quarterbacks to ever play the game. So were Russell and George. All three had more physical gifts than Brady, Montana, and Manning.

In fact, the only guy who's in the argument for greatest ever who was real and truly physically gifted was Elway.

Well just lost a little respect for Bledsoe.

Who would expect a career .500 QB to value winning in the analysis?
He probably still thinks BB should have started him in 2001 over Brady

Bledsoe was a statue with a strong arm and average accuracy.

"To me, he (Peyton Manning) is the greatest of all time"
---- Tom Brady

The only COMPELLING argument today is Montana, but in 3 weeks, the only compelling argument may be Brady.
The existence of an argument does not make it a compelling one.
