Quit mentioning the OLine,

Sure this Oline is not great, but there are a few things to throw that argument out the window:

 

1) There are ALOT of teams where OLine is an issue. But somehow, the proffesional QB that is making millions, WHO KNOWS the Oline isnt great, and KNOWS how to feel pressure, and KNOWS how to get rid of the ball, shouldn't look like a pop warner backup.

 

2) BLEDSOE HAD TIME YESTERDAY! There were SEVERAL plays where Bledsoe have 5, EVEN 6 seconds to throw. And what did he do? Well, I remember three throws specifically that were thrown SO low that a midget doing the limbo couldnt have caught them, and then there were the ones that were so high Cheech Marin couldnt have caught them. And even when they were near a catchable range, they were thrown unessesarily hard. The interception that Henry deflected was ONE person's fault. Drew Bledsoe. He threw the ball about 70MPH and to a spot where Henry had to do his best verticle leap to come close.

 

3) And when the line DID break down, HOW IN THE WORLD does Bledsoe not feel that pressure? Watching Brady, when his line collapses, he steps straight forward into that busted pocket, or rolls out (not an option for leadfoot Bledsoe), or GETS RID OF IT.

 

 

 

So, if i hear one more person say it was the Oline, and not the Quarterback, Im going to send you a tape of this last game, because apparently you just didnt watch it.

There were two plays that stick out in my mind where first an OLB and then a CB came off the edge from Bledsoe's back side and he never even glanced their way as he dropped back. A QB's head needs to be on a swivel as he drops back assessing things like this, not just focused on a receiver downfield. The amazing thing was that Bledsoe didn't fumble on either of these plays.
