Default Raining with Bledsoe

Last week someone said it was raining late in the game, and Bledsoe isnt good in the rain. Well they predict rain in this game. What are we in for?

Some fumbles, Maybe not from Bledsoe but there should be a couple of fumbles.


I'm just another sheep in the pack, but I bite like a goat!

I didn't realize this was a problem for Drew.. Troy's issues with wet balls were well documented, but I was under the impression that Drew was a decent to good bad weather QB.. Well up until last week.

It's NOT. One poster started that rumor with no evidence. Just another reason to bag on Bledsoe.

Drew's woes last week had little to do with the weather.

He just played poorly.

Well one guy did post game stats as confirmatioin. The problem is that there has been nothing officially reported about Bledsoe has a problem w/playing with wet balls.

I have no problem with people thinking he might have a problem playing in bad weather, but I hate it when people just toss out stuff with nothing really to confirm it.
Thank you to all donated to the Jason Witten Camp drive!

Are you talking about Stanley Spadowski?? I saw a thread where he said something about Bledsoe being bad in bad weather, but he was vague in posting his stats, and the weather. In fact I refuted a lot of his stats.

I don't know about you WG, but I still haven't seen any stats that show that Bledsoe is any worse than most QBs are when the football's wet.

I always seen where Drew does pretty decent in bad weather. He should be use to it, paying in Washington in college. I seen him play fine in rain.

One of the reasons Tuna was said to have drafted Drew over that Mirer creature was that he felt Bledsoe's arm would hold up well in the wind and rain stressed AFC East.

In all the years Bledsoe played in NE, I can't once recall him being criticized for rain related performances.

This rain is going to push out. Let them have the ball first.
"The ball ain't heavy."

-Herschel Walker, when asked if he got tired carrying the ball 30 times per game.
