Fezmid Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 Let's just assume that, in fantasy-land, Bledsoe takes the Cowboys to an 11-5 record and a playoff berth. Regardless of what the Bills do, what will people here start saying about Bledsoe/Dallas? I'm not saying this will definately happen by any stretch of the imagination. I'm just wondering what people like Steve, Rico, etc, etc, will start saying about Bledsoe if the Cowboys have a good/great season next year. Please, no "That will never happen!" threadkill comments.

CajunBillsBacker Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 It wouldn't bother me. If he led the Cowboys to the Superbowl, i'd support him 110%. I don't hate Drew and look for every opportunity to take cheap shots at him like most posters here, I respect him a great deal for the person and team player he was, because quite frankly, he was the most complete QB the Bills have had since Jim Kelly. I just wasn't interested in watching him QB the Bills anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he takes them to a playoff birth, they will say that's ok, he can't win a big game, so he will lose in the playoffs. And if they win in the playoffs and go to the Superbowl, they will say that's ok he can't win in a SB. And if he wins the SB, they will say, that's ok cause he can't do it again. And none of those previous games were BIG games anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People like you who said, "Anyone but Bledsoe because Drew can't win the big games and can't get us to the playoffs and can't win a Superbowl!" Well, if he does that in Dallas, doesn't that prove that he CAN do it, and COULD have done it here? This will be especially compounded if we flounder with JPL. I just don't understand the "Anyone is better than Bledsoe" comments, followed by, "Hey, if he wins in Dallas, that's fine, as long as he's not here!"

Risin Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 Good luck to Drew. If he does well, I'll give credit, where credit is due. No matter what he does with Dallas, it still doesn't excuse the fact he did below average with us. Personally, that's all that matters to me. He will go down as just another hack QB that played for the Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CW PS: Yes AD, I'm aware of the irony of starting a DB post after saying I havn't started a DB thread. 249211[/snapback] Okay, I will bite and give a straight answer. Personally, I will say that we did not design the correct offense to take advantage of his strengths even after two OCs. I will admit being wrong about my perception that he will break the fans' heart in big games. Let us see how things pan out. Let me also say that I asked myself similar questions when I felt that the organization was wrong to let Todd Collins and later, RJ go. Time taught me that I was in fact a moron for thinking that and knew nothing about the game. Since that time, I have been watching the games a bit more carefully and learnt more about the game (note: I came to the US in 1989 and watched football for the first time when the Bills went to their 1st SB).

BenchBledsoe Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 Unfortunately, this could look bad for TD and the Bills. JP is likely to struggle in his first year as a starter, and DB, under Parcells, will do a serviceable job. If Vinny can put up some decent numbers there, I'm sure DB will look okay. There undoubtedly will be the early season media stories like "The Rebirth of Drew Bledsoe in Dallas under Bill Parcells" when the Cowboys are like 2-1 or 3-2. Then, they'll fade away into an 8-8 type team, and the hype will fade as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CW 249238[/snapback] Well, I have said "Anyone but Bledsoe because Drew can't win the big games and can't get us to the playoffs and can't win a Superbowl!" And I believe that 100%. But I've also said "I just don't like Drew". I couldn't stand him from Day 1 with the Patriots. I never considered him an elite QB, but thanks to - superior coaching, - sometimes superior personnel, and - sometimes bad officiating. his team prevented my team from reaching further success... and he got a lot of undue credit for it. Marino was a far better QB than Drew, but I wouldn't want him on the Bills either. Highly unlikely, but IF he proves me wrong about the 1st statement, then I'm wrong. Won't be the first time, won't be the last. Regardless, I'll be happy because at least he's no longer a Bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
