If Bill Parcells is truly serious about this team being 10-6 - He comes up with a plan and wins this Game Sunday. I know Bellichik would...and I don't even mean the Bellichik of today - I mean the Defensive Coordinator Billy Bellichick does...
- I already hear the built in crutches (not excuses but crutches) "There the best 0-3 team you'll ever see - Moss is a Killer v.s. us - 3 road games in 4 you can only be happy with a split - etc etc....
- Here's my take - you wanna be taken seriously - WIN THE GAME.

The raiders have a big front 7 and have held up against the run well. I think Bledsoe will have to be the key for a win this weekend.

Last I checked the "Bills" don't coach the same team. The Pats are the world champions and the Cowboys are coming off 6-10. Of course the WORLD CHAMPIONS should win at home. We aren't as good as the Pats. Doesn't mean we won't win, but just cuz the Pats won doesn't mean it's automatic that we have to just cuz we have Parcells. Parcells is a coach, not a god.
That's like saying your Volvo should be able to fly to the moon just cuz you put rocket fuel in the gas tank.

I never thougt Belichick was all that bad with the Browns. He got them to the playoffs in 1994 and beat our Cowboys that year during the regular season with Vinny. He got a bad deal with Modell wanting to move and lost his team. Belichick is the only coach I would rather have than Parcells. The guy can devise a game plan.

If Jerry Jones came out today and said the Cowboys were moving to Los Angeles how do you think the team would do? They'd tank. No doubt. If Belichick came to coach the Cowboys next year these same guys would be talking about how he's twice as good a coach as Parcells ever was. :rolleyes:

If you think that is the only reason they started winning then you are completely oversimplifying a whole dynasty. You are joking yourself if you think that that year they weren't destined to go to the superbowl whether Brady or Bledsoe was under center. Think where Bledsoe's career would be right now had he never gotten injured. He'd probably be considered the best quarterback of all time. Having won 3 superbowls and passing for over 40,000 and still playing - no one has done that. Bledsoe was subject to some very bad circumstances.

Stop the flippin' coach-jocking! You all act like Belichek is some master or something. The guy is good, but he was nothing but 5-11 until Richard Seymour and Tom Brady (only the best DT and best QB of the decade) came along in 2001. This game will be won by the players if they just play their game, pure and simple.

ah Julius so you're saying Bledsoe is in the same league as Tom Brady then.
Bledsoe couldn't even convert a couple of third downs in the last 2 minutes against the sorry *** Redskins a few weeks ago. So he can do that against teams in the playoffs and TWICE in the Superbowl?
He's never proven anything so I have no idea how you can say if he was never injured he could have been considered the greatest of all time. Remember that Patriot team had Antoine Smith as the RB and some so so receivers. Brady carried that offense...and when put in positions where all the pressure was on him he came through everytime. Could Bledsoe have? I don't think so. Why should I believe he could? He's never proven he could.
I realize everyone is on his jock right now because he's had a few decent games but let's not lose our minds. He blew it at the end of the Skin game, I'm surprised he didn't take some more heat for that.

Sorry man but your wrong the outcome of the Skins game was out of play calling. Several times the coaches allowed Bledsoe to throw and the pass was either dropped or a penalty was thrown. Bledsoe never got sacked and did not turn the ball over. He had nothing to do with our loss.

Everyone is on his jock right now? I've supported Bledsoe throughout his career and I supported him even more in his unspectacular years 2003 and 2004 because I have known he was not the problem. Yes I'm saying Drew Bledsoe is a better passer than Tom Brady, but due to circumstance Tom Brady is generally considered the better quarterback. Which is an opinion I find ignorant because all things being equal Drew Bledsoe is the better quarterback and always has been. Tom Brady wasn't selected in the 6th round because he was a phenomenon he was selected in the 6th round because he is a 6th round passer on a dynasty. Drew Bledsoe stepped in in 2001 and won that AFC championship game just fine what makes you think he couldn't have won the superbowl?
Ultimately though my point is Tom Brady was not the "missing piece to the puzzle" for the patriots and that is what you are insinuating - it's totally false. The Patriots have a dynasty with or without Brady.

He was the missing piece of the puzzle ..
Cripes if you put him on the Dallas Cowboys, Washington Redskins, Buffalo Bills ... You have a Superbowl contender.
It's what every franchise must have in order to be a contender. A big time QB. (Unless you have an ungodly defense like the Ravens, Bears teams of years ago). Why has these teams struggled so much roughly in the last 10 years? They don't have that franchise QB. The Eagles became good once they drafted McNabb, Colts on Manning....
Our teams have been searching for years and until we find one were just going to be pretenders. Were kidding ourselves if we think otherwise.
As far as the Bledsoe being as good as Brady comparison maybe you've been into the booze a bit tonight man ... Brady has poise, pocket presence, good decision making skills and he's a winner. All things that our friend Drew Bledsoe does not have, and sadly he never will.

oh god that is frggin bull, Brady is not this all time great QB.
Thsi guy has been the benficary of a great team
He has a top 5 ranked D almost every year.
He has a top 5 OL ebery year.
and he has recivers who always make the catch no matter where the ball is.
Now if tom brady was so got dang on good, then why did he give what was it 3 points the entire first half against a bad colts D at the time. How did have such a horrible showing against the dolphins. He did it because he is a 6th round draft pick, who has a great team around him.
Brady is no Manning,is no Mcnabb, is no Vick,he is a 6th round draft choice who has a great team around him that allows him to be succesful, man stick dilfer in that team and he'd win another SB.

Well 10 years ago we still had troy Aikman, Emmitt SMith, and Micheal Irvin,
Second if manning was on our team we will still suck why, bad drafting bad FA chocies and bad coaching. A QB cant do anything without a Coach(little Bill with brady) or Wr to throw the ball to(WAyne Harrison Stockley on the colts)

Your team lost because they let playmakers go and the OL sucked. I don't care who your are if you cant protect your quarterback every bad thing you listed will happen. I remember the game last year our DL wasn't that good and we were mauling Bledsoe with in 3 secs. Can you not see that? Look at the stats Bledsoe is having so far why do you think that is happening? Because he has a OL giving him time.

Bledsoe aint gonna change kids. Alright, five years ago we had bad players everywhere. Not just QB. A good Quarterback would have been killed behind our crappy o-line, not to mention getting to hand of to a very old Emmit Smith, or Hambrick.
I watched a few games. Bledsoe threw INTs but he threw more touchdowns. And he probably would have fumbled less if he were given better protection, and had some recievers that could get open. I wonder many Buffalo fans actually place so much emphasis on the importance of a quarterback. Maybe that's why they started to hate him. Because he could never come in and be their messiah. No QB can change a team from bad to good. You wonder why in his pro bowl season in 2002 you guys just went 8-8? You wonder why Archie Manning never had a winning season? And as long as we can have a good player, like Bledsoe, back there we'll do fine.

You could say this about every great quarterback.
Troy Aikman had more talent around him than Brady.
Joe Montana sure as hell had a lot more talent around him than Brady.
John Elway had a helluva lot more talent around him when he won his two Super Bowls than Brady.
Brett Favre had more talent around him when he won his Super Bowl.
Roger had more talent around him.
Get the point?
Let's not downgrade Brady because he has proven that he is one of the best of all time. Period.
He is a better quarterback than Vick.
He is a better quarterback than Manning.
He is a better quarterback than McNabb.
He is the best overall quarterback in the league right now. When the above mentioned quarterbacks earn a ring, then people will be able to argue for them. So far all they've done is choke or lay an egg.

Sorry to get in on this so late, but just to make a point... I seem to remember last year the Bills being 1-5 to start the season. I remember cause we had their draft pick. I was like, "Alright, top 10 pick..." Wouldn't you know they go 8-2 in the last 10. Correct me if I'm wrong, but Bledsoe was QB, McGahee began to get starts roughly around this time, and the D was playing great. He showed he could play with a good surrounding cast. Buffalo didn't give him a chance.

Bledsoe is the best QB we've had since Aikman.
I think he's doing a great job keeping us in games and making things happen in the 4th quarter. I could care less about his past at this point and I'm sure he feels the same. We've got two young guns waiting in the wings, so he BETTER keep making plays. He's got the arm, the experience and more importantly, he's got something to prove to everyone. I think he's a gamer and far from the statue people make him out to be.

This game is definitely huge as I stated in another thread. If we are truly a contender (12-4 type of team) we take this one, even if its another gut wrencher that comes done to the final minutes. But if we are merely a wildcard type of team (9 or 10 wins) then we probably find a way to lose.
All I know is we can't keep relying on Bledsoe to carry the offense, sooner or later the defense needs to step to the plate and dominate....personally I'm still waiting for JJ to have a huge game, it could happen this week.

whoa whoa whoa easy there Junior, you seem to have lost your cool. You need a timeout.
Alright you're 2-1. You guys are sippin the cool aid right now but i'll be back in a couple of weeks to see if Drew is still getting the love around here.
i havent nor did lose any cool, your team sucked bottom line, Bledsoe played for a pooor team, so guess what he's gonna be poor. If the bills were sogreat and awseme then how is that in 2002(as some poster nicely remnded me) when Bledsoe had his probowl year you went 8-8. How is it when you finally decied to stop teams for putting 6 DB out there against the pass, by having a runner who could run you flew to 9-7. Bottom line Bledsoe wasnt the problem in Buffalo the team was. And all ya'll did was blame everything on him. Was he perfect no. Did he make mistakes yes. Was it all his falt heck no. And now that he's over here on a better team, they few mistakes he does make gets overlooked by the comebacks and acheivments he has done.

He was the missing piece of the puzzle ..
Cripes if you put him on the Dallas Cowboys, Washington Redskins, Buffalo Bills ... You have a Superbowl contender.
It's what every franchise must have in order to be a contender. A big time QB. (Unless you have an ungodly defense like the Ravens, Bears teams of years ago). Why has these teams struggled so much roughly in the last 10 years? They don't have that franchise QB. The Eagles became good once they drafted McNabb, Colts on Manning....
Our teams have been searching for years and until we find one were just going to be pretenders. Were kidding ourselves if we think otherwise.
As far as the Bledsoe being as good as Brady comparison maybe you've been into the booze a bit tonight man ... Brady has poise, pocket presence, good decision making skills and he's a winner. All things that our friend Drew Bledsoe does not have, and sadly he never will.
I think most quarterbacks can have poise and pocket presence in the situation he's in. If he was on the Washington Redskins he would be touted one of the worst QB's in the league. If he was on the Dallas Cowboys he'd be having the success Drew Bledsoe is having. To say a quarterback can come in and singlehandedly make a team a superbowl contender shows just how ignorant about the entire game you are. The quarterback is the most dependent position on the football field. You can't just stick peyton manning into any offense and tell him to throw for 49 touchdowns I know in your fantasy world you would like that to be true. You can't put tom brady on the redskins and say hey get us deep into the playoffs. It doesn't work like that and people who think that way I have no respect for their opinion.
