Interesting Stats

[Ring 6]

Tom Brady has thrown 2277 more passes as a Patriot than Drew Bledsoe did while completing 1765 more and throwing for 20,936 more yards, and 203 more TDs but has thrown 2 fewer Ints.

The 5 QBs who have started the most games at QB for the Patriots (Brady, Bledose, Grogan, Parilli, Eason) have a combined w/l record of 362-218-7.
The other 22 who have started at QB for the Patriots have a combined w/l record of 80-157-2.

Rob Gronkowski has played 4 more games as a Patriot than Randy Moss (when you consider partial games due to injury its probably even less really) and has only 7 fewer catches 308 less yards and 4 less TDs.

Stevan Ridley is the 10th leading rusher in Patriots history, and is less than 800 yards from top 5.

Gostkowski has made 42 more PATS in 26 fewer games than Vinatieri, but 39 fewer FGs in 61 fewer attempts.


EDIT: Mistyped. Gronk has actually played 4 MORE games than Moss as a Pat.

The Gronkowski stat blows me away a bit, but goes to prove how valuable he is to this team.

The Ghost stat is interesting, as well.

Solid post. Thanks!

Consider Gronk's blocking ability and maybe people will stop laughing at me when I say he is the best offensive player, outside of QBs, in the NFL.

Not sure his blocking is back to the way it was before he broke his arm.

It is a lot better than it was during the Cinci game, but he still has a ways to go.

I was just comparing Brady to Bledsoe the other day.

Oh wait... I wasn't... because there is no comparison.

LOL ...
And of course Dan Connolly is exactly where on average return?

OP is good too.... I never would have guessed the Ridley stat.

I loved Bledsoe but remember watching the AFCGC in 2001 and seeing, without question, that Brady was a better QB than Bledsoe.

Brady in 2010-2011 was just amazing. Even better than 2007 in my mind. Just crazy good.
