WYS, I know you have been busy lately with Bledsoe discussions and I don't mean to beat a dead horse, but I have a couple of questions.
I actually usually agree with you and I was very frustrated with Bledsoe last year, especially the Green Bay game. It was ridiculous.
But... I do have 2 quick questions for you about Bledsoe and other qb's in the league. In defense of Bledsoe:
1) Since we are constantly watching/analyzing bills games, you can see every mistake or issue you have with Bledsoe from Training camp all the way through the season. Each game is analyzed down to every snap. It is easier to see a mistake that he makes, but other teams and QB's probably go through similar issues that you may not see, because you only see highlights or a game here and there. Kerry Collins may put up similar stats, but if you go to a Giants board, I am sure they can find something to complain about.
If you watched every Saints game there is probably an issue or problem with Brooks. Injury prone or something.. who knows.
2) He wasn't the only one to blame for problems last year. Seemed like Moulds dropped a lot of balls, stopped on a route or two. Bad play calls, gilbride etc.
I am giving him the benefit of the doubt. Seemed like they learned from their mistakes last year. 2nd year in the system should help.
Bledsoe is a strong arm QB with a lot of confidence and that is a good thing. He does have his weaknesses, but he hasn't even played his 2nd year as a Bill. I thought Kelly had a lot of costly int's as well, but he had other intangibles similar to Drew.
