Lol at the anti-Bledsoe sentiment. Isn't he in the top 10-15 in many statistical categories for QB's?

Really? Like what? Not hating, just surprised. I can't imagine how he could be. He's just played on such bad teams and never seemed consistent.

Yes, his stats are that good. Not remotely close to HoF though for anyone that watched him play on a regular basis.

Granted without the Lewis hit, there would be no Brady, but EVERYONE forgets Drew stepping up in the AFC Championship in Pittsburgh when Brady went down on their way to the first Super Bowl win. This, after not playing for 14 weeks.

Solid career, he's Bernie Kosar with a ring. No HOF though.

that's actually not true. BB was getting close to making the change before the Lewis hit

hes like top 10 in a lot of 'all time' categorys. anyways from WIKI

[ QUOTE ]
He currently ranks fifth all-time in career attempts and completions, and is seventh all-time in career passing yardage. He is tied with John Hadl and Peyton Manning for 13th all-time in career touchdown passes. Among active quarterbacks, he stands second behind only Brett Favre in career completions, attempts and passing yards. He and Manning are tied for second behind Favre in career touchdowns. In 2000, he became just the fourth quarterback in league history to have seven consecutive 3,000-yard passing seasons. In 2005, he recorded his ninth career 3,000-yard passing season, tying him with Warren Moon for fourth in NFL history. In 2005 he also became just the 10th player in NFL history to reach the 40,000 passing yard plateau, reaching the mark in his 172nd career game, the fifth fastest player to reach that milestone. Bledsoe holds the NFL record for pass attempts in a season with 691 in 1994 and also has the third best mark with 636 in 1995, those marks coming during a three-year span (1994-96) that he led the league in pass attempts. He also holds the league record for pass attempts (70) and completions (45) in a game, setting the mark against Minnesota on Nov. 13, 1994. In that game, he also threw no interceptions, setting a league mark for pass attempts in a game without an interception. His 400 completions in 1994 are the third best total in league history, and he is also tied for fourth in NFL history with six 400-yard passing games. In 1993-94 he had a string of four-straight 300-yard passing games, the sixth longest streak in league history. In his career, Bledsoe has four overtime touchdown passes, the most in NFL history.

Agree on no HOF, but he was a cut above Bernie Kosar.

Thanks for the stats. Very interesting. I wasn't a Pats fan when I was young so I guess I just missed his prime. And wow, that's very classy.
