Is KC Make Or Break For Bledsoe?

[Dogstar]

If Bledsoe continues to be ineffective and causes more turn-overs and we lose to KC, is he done?

Should we pull him and try the back ups?

[AbeBeta]

Yes, our backups should do far better with crap blocking than Bledsoe.

Not unless you want to ditch the rest of the season. If the line can't block the young QB's are not going to get the job done. Myself I don't want to see this team give up.

But we know from last year that that will never happen.

If Bledsoe continues to (not be on a pace to set the franchise yardage record) and (gets blindsided as he tries to simply handoff) should we pull him and try the back ups?

Absolutely. If Drew can't set the franchise record, he's done. Any backup could do that. If Drew can't put up his best rating of his entire career (87) then he's not good enough. Any backup can do better.

Bledsoe wil have time, come sunday and i think that he will be able to perform well come sunday. GO BOYS

Get it done Bledsoe

[Lifetimeboyzfan]

If we are willing to pull the plug on the season and willing to risk destroying the career of yet another young qb or two, then sure. let's get Bledsoe outta there.

Even Romo could hit a checkdown receiver with 5+ seconds in the pocket. Apparently that's a foreign concept for Tunnel Vision Bledsoe

If the Cowboys win on a strong defensive effort but a rather weak offensive showing will you be starting anonther thread about Bledsoe's ineffectiveness next week?

Yes, pull a vet and turn to a back-up while in the middle of the wildcard (not to mention division) race, that seems like an outstanding idea.

So the "Vinny gives us the best chance to win" history makes you think Parcells would give up on Bledsoe, who clearly has more to offer?

[TrueDallasFan]

It's not all Bledsoe, It's the Offensive line. When he has to put the priorty to running
away from the defence over throwing the ball, it will make him ineffective.
Get the o-line in gear and put him in a protective pocket and then lets see if he is ineffective. You know Bledsoe is a "statue" and does not move to well and if he has to run he is off big time. other wise we need a "Vick" who can move and play dodge ball with the defense.

I REALLY think people need to stop responding to this post in a serious manner...If you MUST respond, do so in a humorous way...

He won't be done, but any chance to go 10-6 will be just about done.

The Giants fans I spoke with last week at the game were glad they did it last year. Do you know what there record was when they pulled Warner for Eli ?

They just figured Warner wasn't the future, like some people here think Bledsoe is not our future.

I honestly would love to see what Romo has to offer. The Cowboys do have to think about getting a young guy developed. And Romo is our best option at this point and time. At least Parcells seems to think so.

The Giants have Eli, who is doing a pretty decent job in NY in only his second year and will become one of the better QB's in the league in a few years. Washington has Jason Campbell, an enigma at this point... but what if the Skins catch lightning in a bottle with this kid? And the Iggles still have Donovan who is definitely younger than Bledsoe and who still has a few really good seasons left in him if he can get some WR help on that side of the ball.

Where does this leave Dallas for the future when it comes to QB? We have a young and improving defense that better become really good over the next couple of seasons because we will most likely be facing some really good QB's, and that is just in the NFC East alone.

I hope Parcells has the stones to play Romo if and when the Cowboys are mathematically eliminated from the playoffs.

[Ashwynn]

nah, not even close. Bledsoe dont need to prove anything to Parcells. He knows that Unitas would look like Hutch out there behind that line. Next year with the new and improved O line will be the make or break, put up or shut up season for Bledsoe. Should be no excuses, but till then he cant even make his arguement, that line is so bad.

This excuse is getting tired. Watch the game again and see how many times Bledsoe has a clean pocket and 4-6 seconds to throw the frickin ball. The OL played terrible overall but Bledsoe had alot of opportunities to make plays and he screwed them up by holding the ball all day and trying to force the deep one in there instead of checking down to wide open short routes.

Some people even whine that a 3 man rush was getting to Bledsoe. "Ohhh a 3 man rush got to him, our OL sux!". What they failed to include in this genius assessment is that Bledsoe stood there in the pocket all day again waiting to get sacked.

If Bledsoe doesn't stop playing like a rookie we're done.

Difference is, they had a QB waiting to take over, we have Romo and a baseball player.

Did you even SEE the game the other day?

1/2 of the OTHER time, Drew had ample time AND throwing lanes(with open receivers to boot), but didn't do jack.

Romo, OTOH, would have done it different-he would have side-stepped, anticipated pressure, stepped into his throws, etc. Heck-Tom Brady's mental aspect is far different too.

Yeah-our OL is trash. But it isn't THAT bad.

Oh I see, earlier this year when things were rosey, Bledsoe was playing better and the line was the same. Now the lines still the same, minus Flo, but Bledsoe just plays bad to piss off us fans. I see.

Maybe you should watch the games. Pay attention to the guy behind center, thats the QB. Watch him and see how long he has to stand there and scan the field. When he hands off the the RB, the guy behind the QB, watch the RB and see 1) does he get hit before or as he receives the hand off, or 2) how many times he gets hits before he can even get to the line of scrimmage, the spot the play happens to start at is the line of scrimmage.

This may be a tired arguement, but its all I got. Bledsoes doing as well as any QB could do here. The RBs dont suck. The receivers are not dropping a larger percentage of balls then they should. What else can it be? If your QB sucks, hes not among the highest rated QB all season long. If your QB sucks you dont stay competitive in every single freaking game you play. I'm here to tell you, the problem is not Bledsoe backsliding. The problem is our Oline getting hit with injuries forcing us to leave rookies out there alone. Against nobodies, thats good enough. Against Strahans, Freeneys and Kearses of the world, we get our lunch eaten for us.

[Hoov]

With no running game defenses are going to come after an inexperienced QB even more, we will look like the eagles lat monday night. At least bledose is capable of making a team pay when they blitz, think the young guys will be running for their life.

Also not to mention that teams will just kill our rb's then cause they will gamble that the young guys can't take the game on their shoulders. I think it would get ugly for the offense.

I disagree.

Bledsoe's rating has taken a nosedive in recent weeks if you haven't noticed. What keeps us in games now is the defense.

If you hold the ball for 5 seconds (and yes it's been officially timed, on more than one occasion during the Giants game) and elect to throw to the receiver in double coverage instead of the wide open man that's all on you.

Believe what you choose, but Romo under that pressure would have folded. Sorry Romo is nothing more than a career backup guy no matter how you want to spin it. Bledsoe for all of his warts is still the best QB on this team by far!
