i guess taking sacks is better than throwing a ridiculous amount of INTs, which is what every QB since Aikman has done. I thought Q set the INT in a season bar high enough that no one would reach, yet VT dug deep and was able to toss like 21 last year.
Seriously though, Bledsoe is going to have to scare some people with some deep completions and prove himself a bit before we start seeing less than 8 defenders near the LoS to stop JJ. I don't think anyone is going to be respect our passing game until we force them to.
You're kidding right?
Obviously you don't know Bledsoe's MO.
The man lives for the deep pass... anything over 15 yards.
"Scare people with deep completions"... give me a break. That's how defenses have stopped this yay-who for the past 2 1/2 seasons-- take away the deep pass and force the SOB to check down, which of course he refuses to do.
Take away the deep pass and blitz Bledsoe up the middle--- that's the key to beating him.
You want people to "respect" the passing game? Then make Bledsoe do what defenses are ALWAYS going to give him-- the stuff 10 yards and in. But making Drew Bledsoe do that is like trying to make Nors the king of the toastmasters-- it ain't gonna happen!
You folks had better get a better idea of what Drew Bledsoe is all about.
