Don't you hate having to defend our decision to

Especially Dallas fans? It gets so annoying hearing outsiders (sometime insiders)act like Drew was a Pro Bowler and how we threw our season away, and that Drew would be much better and he'd never pass for just 78 yards and blah,blah,blah! Now while I can't debate whether Drew could do worse than Losman the past 2 games (it can't get much lower), if you look at these stats the past two seasons they would then see and understand why we had to go in a different direction. Even if Drew passes for 5000 yards in Dallas, we can only go by what he has done for us the past 2 seasons and the second half of 2002. In the last 2 seasons, he only had 1 game where he passed for over 300 yards, FIVE GAMES where he passed for under a 100 yards, 4 games where he threw 3 or more picks. 15 games he passed for under 200 yards. And look how many games he completed less than half of his passes; combine that with 43 turnovers over this same period. Now if Losman put up numbers like this for 2 years then I'd be ready to go in a new direction but I would cut him some slack for he is a young QB. Drew wasn't getting any better in Buffalo. He came in 2002 motivated to prove the Patriots wrong like he has done in Dallas so far. But once he got comfortable and lost his drive then what could you do but go in a different direction with a young QB with potential? So if anybody else comes up and attacks you with this we should have kept Drew nonsense, smack them in the face with these stats:

Have you considered not dealing with Dallas fans in the first place?

I've tried but my friend is a Cowgirls firend and he always tried to talk smack before the Cowgirls even got Drew about how good he was and if he played for Dallas and now 3 games init is looking good for him. He keeps dropping Flutie for Rj. I have a cousin whi is a Jets fan who thinks that Drew would be better and all this blah, blah, blah is driving me nuts when if you have watched us play every game like I have it is obvious that Drew wasn't getting it done for us plain and simple; I mean these stats don't lie!

That's odd; all the Cowboys fans I know (including my brother) were TICKED when they signed Bledsoe. And while they're happy with the 2-1 start, they realize Dallas doesn't get to play against the 49ers defense every week...
