    Bledsoe was a gambler but his arm was so goddamn awesome he could get away with it. he was a notorious ball patter. He ALWAYS wanted to make the big throw downfield and would ignore his checkdowns even when under a heavy rush. He'd pat the ball like crazy and then take a big risk downfield. Thats the biggest reason Bill benched him for Brady permanently. Brady wouldn't hesitate to checkdown while Drew always forced a downfield throw or took a bad sack instead.
    this is pretty much all that needs to be said about Bledsoe. not sure if i'm allowed to comment about him, since he spent the bulk of his career on the Pats. he was pretty much everything that Rob Johnson wanted to be and was supposed to become. Except Johnson was an even more notorious "ball patter" or as some say, he tried to burp the football like a baby. Johnson didn't have the arm Bledsoe had. few did, but he always held the ball too damn long and had no mobility.

    Bledsoe could have had a better career than he ultimately did. that first year on Buffalo he was an absolute flamethrower

    Obviously if he hadn't of got hurt.....

    Bledsoe is number 10 in passing yards and number 16 in TD's. There are a lot of HOFers behind him in both.

    Real talk how many of you fellow Texans fans would want Football if he had worn burnt orange in college? How many of you wanted Vince Young? Be honest.

    Never wanted him and always gave him for being a . My take on Vince from 2008:
    As a Longhorns fan, I have lost a lot of respect for Young since he has left Texas. He talked a lot of crap about Houston for not taking him yet he has done nothing to show they should have...while the player they did take wound up with 14 sacks last year and started the season on the same tear yesterday.

    Thanks for the Championship Vince...but you really need to quit being a and take your lumps like a man.

    It'd be the same amount who don't want him.

    Fair enough. Do think Football is a better pro prospect though so hopefully McNair makes the right choice tbh.

    I think Manziel has more upside than Vince had and I think he's got a legit shot at some success eventually. I just don't think he's the guy for Houston. He would really be better served sitting out a season or so learning the QB postion at the pro level. That won't happen though.

    Yup. With all the coke and strippers in Houston, that's just one reason why it won't work.
