Bledsoe: "didn't think it was fair" being replaced by Brady

[DaBronxPats14]

I have to admit I was a BIG Bledsoe fan and I had mixed emotions on his replacement of Brady. But as'da season went on I could understand why it BB left Brady in. IMO chemistry was there already, players had Brady's back and Brady showed his toughfness. Drew coming in for AFCCG VS Steelers was fitting but I can see why BB chose TB for Superbowl. BB trusted him and didn't want to disrupt what they had going. I can't blame Bledsoe for what he may have felt.

Steve Grogan was'da reason I became a Pats fan back in 1976. So when Tony Eason Was there I still always wanted Grogan in there NO MATTER WHAT! IMO Brady Is #1 Grogan Is #2 Bledsoe #3

It didnt take too many games to figure out Brady had "it". He could be having a so so game but when it counted he always came through. Bledsoe didnt. Brady is just special and it was obvious to everyone after 3-4 games.

can't argue with the result.....case closed

I don't remember Bledsoe being anything but supportive publically. There were rumors of him being less than supportive private (if I remember correctly, that Globe piece was all about rumors and unnamed sources and no quotes nor any hard evidence of Bledsoe being anything less than a team player).

It was pretty obvious, IIRC, that Bledsoe WAS the key unnamed source.

Agreed.


Where ya been?

I'm around, but mostly lurking.

I'm glad he had a chance to come in and score a TD for us in the AFCC.

You obviously have forgotten the falling down, backwards, over the head pass
that was truly bledsoian. Whatever sympathy I ever had for Drew was, at that
moment, vaporized and gone forever. And he thinks being replaced wasn't fair?

I said the same thing about Tony Eason after 8 games into the 1984 season.
