Quarterbacks: Drew Bledsoe had one of his best games of the season. He might have had over 300 yards passing if he wasn’t knocked out of the game. Bledsoe was 19 of 29 for 252 yards and 2 touchdowns. He was hitting everybody and made some nice plays to avoid sacks. He actually rolled out a couple times! This was also one of the first times that he did not make any costly turnovers. Overall, it was a pretty good day for Bledsoe. Let’s hope he can keep it up. Alex Van Pelt did his job in mop up duty and handed the ball off most of the time. He only completed 2 passes out of 5 for 23 yards. It looks like he is finally starting to show his age and is really nothing more than a 3rd string quarterback, or maybe a QB coach. Grade: A
Running Backs: Travis Henry had some trouble running the ball in the first half, but kept pounding through and finished with another 100 yard game. He is now about 30 yards away from 1,000. Henry finished the game with 26 carries for 105 yards. Joe Burns came in on 3rd downs, and at the end of the game for mop up duty. He ended the day with 5 carries for 13 yards. Overall, it was another good day for this unit and it will be really exciting to see McGahee and Henry battle it out for the #1 job next year.
