Bledsoe retires: Hall of fame?

NFL_WIZARD · 04-12-2007, 09:14 AM

Drew Bledsoe retires and is probably a 50-50 shot for the Hall of fame.
What do you guys think?

rebel26 · 04-12-2007, 09:22 AM

I dont really want him go cause im not a big fan but you cant ignore the numbers:13 years in the league over 45.000 yards over 250 TDs but he also had over 200 INTs and never lead his team to a SB. He wont be a first ballot hall of famer but i think he will get in eventually

NFL_WIZARD · 04-12-2007, 09:29 AM

Actually he did lead his team to a superbowl. They lost to Green bay in the mid-90's. I voted No because he really only had 6 or 7 good years. The last half of his career was futile.

DUH

I forgot about that SB. He never lead his team to winning a SB is what i should have said

Actually he led his team to 2 SBs one of which they won when Tom Brady came in because Bledsoe was hurt. But he still played the majority of that season... And yes he is a hall of famer.

Actually he didn't lead the team to that SB as he went down the 2nd game of the season and Brady led them to that one, then went down in the AFC Title game which Bledose won for them.

Hardly. He didn't help but he was nowhere to be found in the last half of the season when we went from division leaders to barely making the playoffs.

two games. Jacksonville and the first Philly game. two INT's late when we should have won both games.

Regardless. The fact is we were in a position to win the division. The entire team choked down the stretch. I don't like Bledsoe and how he played, but too suggest he's the scapegoat for the team last season doesn't really tell the story of how the season went in Dallas last year.

No.

He wasn't a pioneer that made strides for his position, he just flew under the radar and was at one time, a solid decent QB for a decent amount of time, that brought him to cult status in some areas and for that some people might say yeah he deserves to.

But i don't, not now or in the next 3-5 years anyway, maybe in 10yrs. Hopefully by then he's in there as a guy who's been helping the community, doing things for his hometown and the teams he enjoyed playing for as an ambassador. Till then, Drew, enjoy eating like a pig and waking up late and not having to work out.

NFL_WIZARD · 04-16-2007, 12:47 PM

I just looked up Bledsoe on NFL.com. His career numbers are not very impressive. Look at every category...other than throwing a lot of passes, he sure wasn't very good.

vcx · 04-16-2007, 10:11 PM

Drew was the, hey if i throw it enough times and the right guy catches it, i might actually score a TD pass...type of QB. His entire career.
