Sports Final Drew Bledsoe

[samoahaka]

where can i find his "goodbye letter" for NE fans?

[racerjsf]

to all you NE fans he stepped up when needed in 01 and turned the franchise around in the 90's so dont fukin forget that....he's very important to Patriots history

[truthforrealtruth]

I like how everyone is trying to shit on Brady in these comments, haha. I love Bledsoe but I love Brady more. Thanks for posting this.

[JDDrummer73]

I loved Bledsoe and was immediately a fan when he came to New England. The way I put it to those who don't know the history is, "Parcells and Bledsoe brought the Pats from doormats to winners; Belichick and Brady brought the Pats from winners to champions." Drew Bledsoe was the beginning of a great era.

[foxborosensation11]

Bledsoe to Coates was Allday! Parcells is a PIMP! Bellichek can kiss my ass

[xBloodXGusherx]

Drew pissed me off a lot but he was good.

[AssimilateThis85]

Good to see Belichick as animated as always.

[ThePeteAwesome]

(me when drew left pats) "WAAAAA! WAAAAAA! MOMMYYYYY! WAAAAAAAA! BRADY'S BEING A MEANY! WAAAAAA!" (years later when bledsoe is old and retires) "WOOO! BRADY! BRADY!"

[mrkingofkings]

Drew Bledsoe is a far better quarterback than Tom Brady, and that is that.

[DavionElite]

@mrkingofkings hahahaha. That was good for a laugh. Better than Brady. hahahaha.

[piegirl89]

@DavionElite NEw England and their Fair weather fans DavionElite is an example

[DavionElite]

@piegirl89 I'm not even a pats fan you moron. I'm a 49ers fan. Brady is one of the greatest to ever play. Just like the QB controversy video, you are one of those stupid fans that comes out of the woods and thinks Drew was better.

[piegirl89]

@DavionElite your and idiot

[NEPatriots128154]

@DavionElite I think Brady shut you up this year

[DavionElite]

@NEPatriots128154 Do what? shut me up? Brady had an MVP quality season this year.

[NEPatriots128154]

@DavionElite I was trying to reply to some guy who said Brady has way to many INTs, and I think I clicked your name by accident. My bad

[NEPatriots128154]

@mrkingofkings I love Drew but he definitely is not

[Mr40acresandamule]

I hated him, Someone needs to sit on his face!

[MrShowtime22]

Drew Bledsoe was a tough and gritty field general.

And he was a Parcells disciple, with Bill making Drew the #1 pick in the '93 draft. With the exception of Tony Romo, Parcells' quarterbacks usually weren't celebrity QB's. I loved Parcells' 11 QB Commandments segment on ESPN some years back.

Being a Giant fan all my life, its embedded in our minds to dislike those types of QB's in favor of the lunch pail, blue collar signal callers. I'll take a Drew Bledsoe over a Tom Brady anyday.

[cellardoor199991]

You guys wanna know how he got so motivated. It's becuase of how he was raised. His dad Mac Bledsoe wrote a book called Parenting with Dignity. Everybody needs to read it. They interview him " The Family Fix" on youtube

[rdsxluvrynkyhatr]

Well, say what you wanna say about Bledsoe, but i think even as growing up as a young patriots fan, i thought Bledsoe was the best quarterback ever. But since people have been critisizing him about being a jerk, or a prima donna, you gotta give Bledsoe respect, how else do you think bledsoe led the pats to their 2nd super bowl in 97? you tell me, because scott zolak sucked.

[doescookies]

my best friend is drew bledsoes 4th cuzzzz..his noah bledsoe

[MPatrick1970]

I remember seeing a building in Rhode Island with a huge Drew Bledsoe mural painted on the side back in '95.

[vunit17]

is it still there? and wuts up with the -1s? Bledsoe isnt gay like Brady

[ckandrut]

Poor Drew...He could never talk without ahhh,ummm,ahhh.The Pats really found a diamond in the rough with tom Brady.Now he is THE FACE of the NFL!

[TheBriggs13]

jim plunket had no o line no defence and no recivers it was a good thing raiders grabed him befor he got hurt bad steve grogan was good but the team wasnt much better ramon berry days patriots were like lions to day cept team geled better and ralleyd together to pull some wins out tony eason was a nerve bag when you would see his feet move all over the place you knew he was getting sacked or it was gona be an interception

[TheBriggs13]

bledsoe was a qb durring an error of change the coach changed many times durring bledsoe as did owners and team mates, every thing was trile by error, as for talent he was nowhere near jim plunket steve grogan or tom brady

[LilMark26]

man i remember those games against the dolphins and the bills....i rememeber turning off the tv cuz i couldnt watch it so when i turn it back on all i heard were the fans sreaming meaning they won lol good times drew good times...now Broncos ur next

[itgl72]

CONT...

Brady is SMART makes qick decisions and has a fast release. He's not the best athlete but what he can do along with his BRAIN and SMARTS makes him THE BEST N.E. QB in their history. To think otherwise, well, is just being one sides and blinded by one's affection for the other person. I loved Drew, but at the end of the day Brady finished the job. He got it done.

At the end of the day I have to say thank to both DREW BLEDSOE & TOM BRADY as a N.E. fan who has been a fan for 30+ years

[itgl72]

With all due respect I have been a Patriots fan since the days of Mosi Tatupu, and Steve Grogan. I am and will always be a huge Drew fan. I still have a poster up in my garage of him. It broke my heart to see him fall from the starting spot. But the truth is, Bledsoe had huge potential that he may have never really gotten all of. He held on to the ball too long, and was not as sharp with the decision making process. He is a quality person, a super professional and class act.

[itgl72]

CONT...

I will always carry a cross for Drew Bledsoe and how he brought N.E. from 1-15 jokes to playoff contenders. But there is no guarantee he would have won the superbowl in 2001. Too many times I saw him get our team 98% of the way before THE SACK, or THE FORCED INT. That was just Drew rocketarm Bledsoe. Tom Brady is not to be hated. he is a fantastic QB, and one thing he has that Drew did not use to the best of his ability was HIS BRAIN.

[ckandrut]

You are exactly right!!Well Said!

[CairoRipper]

VIVA Bledsoe! You were the best man...

[CairoRipper]

VIVA BLEDSOE & FUCK BRADY

[itgl72]

Seriously CairoRipper and vunit17, are you both absolute idiots? Your comments display brainlessness.

[CairoRipper]

I don't think so itgl72. I think you should check the history of the Pats and see that they became a totally different franchise since Bledsoe took over and changed their fucked up culture of losing. Brady was handed a superbowl ready team (lucky ass hick) I fuckin hate that fuck tard...

[CairoRipper]

Man, I still feel so bad for Bledsoe. The guy was the one who SINGLE HANDEDLY MADE THE PATRIOTS

[vunit17]

I agree and whoever the New england hicks is disagree is an idiot

[ratmaslove]

i wanted the rams to

[meraogkows]

its hard to live wit football wit out bledsoe

[kirbyz123]

I live in drews home town! Walla Walla Washing ton i have his autograph. like 5 of them

[thebookwormh2o]

He's my ROLE MODEL!!

[thebookwormh2o]

Bledsoe is my favorite QB! Rugal!

[Zeddtar]

Will Tom Brady be next to be replaced by a younger quarterback?

[mcd4552]

nah

[vunit17]

Lets hope so Tom Brady is so gay

[bwcw46]

i have the same last name

[pats12mvp]

hey say what you want about drew. but he is a class act. Bledsoe had a huge impact on putting the patriots back on the football map.

[Mackdaddy024]

I love how it says CMGI field in the background when Bill is at the podium. That's classic.

[Brock12186]

Even though I love the Pats and Brady, I love Bledsoe more as a person cuz he took pay cuts to bring in better talent and also doesn't do any of this modeling shit that Brady does

[JoeZiehmer]

Drew and Mac you guys inspired me to pursue coaching wrestling and making a better father out of myself. For all of your efforts and work thanks you were my favorite QB and will always remain so. Yes, I'm the same guy whose humilated some of the Yahoo sports writers into back pedeling. And, yes when they admit the need for offensive line they really sound loss.  Enough on that Drew best QB of the Bills!

[pocketknifes000]

who belives i met drew bledsoe

[ychennay]

drew bledsoe, you are my hero

[nmantor]

i like this guy more than brady

[stacktrick]

yeah but the girls sure dont

[nmantor]

of course...

[piegirl89]

@stacktrick Key word girls cause Brady is a girly man "OMG he cam close to my Knees!!!" like rodnney harrison said tom needs to take off his skirt and put on some slacks. Bledsoe was a man and never bitched about a hit

[TheChels740]

@stacktrick Key word Girls, Brady is a girly player with no heart or toughness

[cbehr91]

Hey, me too. Glad I'm not the only one.

[septip123]

@nmantor yeah, that damn 16-0 season was such a drag, huh?

[pocketknifes000]

i knew drew bledsoe

[JoeZiehmer]

I always wear my Bledsoe and Milloy jersery those two brought a gentlemens feel to the game.

[Chin9y8302]

I like Bledsoe and I've always cheered for him no matter how bad things were...Even after he left the Pats for the Bills to the Cowboys.

My top 5 Patriots of all time:

1. Lawyer Milloy

2. Ben Coats

3. Troy Brown

4. Kevin Faulk

5. Wes Welker

[demerit5]

Its a shame that Bledsoe's stats don't show how good he really was. He was a great QB and us old school Pats' fans remember him well. He was on a lousy Pats team for most of his playing career and would do much better on a team with some decent players. He's no Brady, but is a solid QB.

[cbehr91]

I have the highlight film from the '94 season where Bledsoe set the single season pass attempts record. He was amazing. They lost to Belicheck's Browns in the playoffs.

[pjdambra]

It's such a shame there are so many morons out there that can villainize such a class guy as Drew Bledsoe.. Brady turned out to be a better QB no question, but Drew is the reason why the Patriots began their turnaround from Doormat to Dynasty... As a 27 year season ticket holder I can only say thanks Drew... You have nothing to be ashamed of...

[cbehr91]

Kudos to you for being faithful to a team for so long. Through all the ups and downs.

[rikmysta73]

drew was ok nothing special.got your hopes up alot.can only run for loss of yards.his best play was when he got hurt and let brady take over.drew needed to be more daring.he was like a lump of clay out there.even his blockers gave up on him.

[cbehr91]

He saves your asses in the '01 AFC Championship. Don't forget that.

[Rucks90]

U so RIGHT!

[StabelyUnstable]

@cbehr91 At least someone remembers that.

[edub82]

poor drew...never could get it together

[skiptomylou011]

Go Drew Bledsoe! The man before the man. He was my favorite player for a long time. I still wear his jersey every once in a while.

[GMoney200]

I Argee with u guys Drew Bledsoe's had a strong arm but the O-line was bad like i remeber when da giants were vs cowboys on monday night football he got sacked 4 times 2 int and Tony Rome came in the 4th q all i remeber was drew last walk off the field and i never seen him agin

[GlamMetalRules88]

Drew Bledsoe had his up's and down's. New England made the right descision going with Brady. That's why Bellechic is a great coach though, sometimes you have to make those hard choises and it payed off, so us fans in New England can't complain about seeing Bledsoe go now

[DefiledVerac]

bledsoe was the best quarter back ive ever seen, had the best arm in the NFL, sadly he never had a good enough team to protect him,and he didnt have the top notch WR's to throw to

[Pennywise2374]

but would u take Drew's cock in yer mouth? would u? cuz i would. end of story. biatch!!!

[stacktrick]

well then u r a warrior... good for you... way to take one for the team.

[cellardoor199991]

@stacktrick LOL

[ThePeteAwesome]

@stacktrick lol

[GreatUmbrage]

Why should Bledsoe be any different? Of course I would.

[trevorh321]

Bledsoe was a true warrior, playing hurt, firing passes, always taking chances and sometimes coming up short, but there is not a classier quarterback Ive ever seen. The second half comeback against Minnesota is still one of the great performances in NFL history. Drew Bledsoe is one of the finest football players ever.

[karl5000]

if the pats won the superbowl vs green bay there would be no doubting that bledsoe is one of the greatest qbs ever except now anyone will rember him as a qb who never led his team to a super bowl victory

[meraogkows]

with out bledsoe, tom would suck. he brought that organization back together. if he played in the 80's he would be the best of the best. like montana. when 2000 came, to much technology.

[dunskie]

I was at that Minnisota game when they came back to score 37 pts in 2nd half. I LEFT at halftime cause they were getting spanked so hard by Warren Moon. I LEFT. Greatest comeback ever.

[stacktrick]

great moment

[glidinclyde]

I loved when Bledsoe came off the bench in the AFC Champinship game vs. the Steelers and led the tem to victory.

[zephyrtube]

Drew Bledsoe is one of the most important people in the Pats franchise. Id say behind Parcels, Bellichick and Brady and just ahead of Mo Lewis. Seriously though, they wouldn't be where they are now if not for him. Obviously Bob Kraft is very important but he's the owner.

[stacktrick]

i AGREE

[jennyboom]

@zephyrtube his OT game against the Vikings kick-started the beginning of an era..

[Mruhl316]

@zephyrtube your absolutley right man Drews the man

[SuperGamer7]

I agree With you 100%! Best of luck to Bledsoe...except of course, whenever he faces the Patriots. ;)

[sabman]

Bledsoe is a true warrior and leader. Any other person who had been in his shoes after Brady took his job would have bitched their way to the media and complained. Bledsoe handled it with class and dignity. He was a true sport about and now with the Cowboys he will resume his status as one of the best in the league.

[argonitight]

And im glad to have his last name ;) .. Too bad my first name isnt Frew. ouch
