Best arm and best receiver hooking up will be sweet :)

[Dale]

I, also, don't agree about Bledsoe being the "best" of anything, but I think clearly he's a better pure passer than either McNabb or Garcia before they started throwing to Owens.

It'll be interesting to see if Owens as a similar effect on Bledsoe's career/numbers, and if so, to what extent.

Owens is the ultimate QB-maker and-killer. Boy, if we could somehow misout on the killer part, we'd be in for a fun ride.

I definitely don't believe Owens is the BEST WR in the game today.

Torry Holt, Steve Smith, Hines Ward, Marvin Harrison, Chad Johnson, Randy Moss, THEN Owens and Santana Moss so I rank him tied for 7th.

wow...I absolutely cant stand Owens personally and was outspoken about not wanting him here, but he definitely one of the top 2 or 3 in the game, and very arguably the best all around WR in the game...no way would I take Ward, Harrison or R Moss before him...no way in heck...Holt or S Smith maybe, but I think Owens is tougher to match up with than those two because of his size and run after catch skills

Just look at the one season McNabb played a full year with Owens and compare it to every other season he's had, and you can't help but get excited about what Owens may do for Bledsoe.

Do the same for Garcia and you'll get even more excited.

 

[dbair1967]

It might be a lot more interesting comparison if Palmer was playing behind our line and Bledsoe was playing behind theirs. Did you watch any of the Bengals games last year?

yeah I did...and he has the the #1 combination of arm strength/accuracy in the game...and it isnt close

And then say your 3,846,572nd prayer that the O-line holds up.

Frankly, I don't want to look at anything of Garcia's and get excited.

 

[MONT17]

Henson has the strongest arm and Crayton will be the best WR to ever play the game!!!

Not even his supposed girlfriend?

I think Peyton Manning and Tom Brady are certainly "close" overall. As for Bledsoe, I'm just saying supporting cast means a lot. In the games I watched Cincy play last year Bledsoe would have killed for most of the pockets Palmer was throwing from. If our o-line improves this year and stays healthy I think Bledsoe will have his best overall season as a pro.

 

[The Answer]

No one argues that Drew Bledsoe has the best, most accurate arm in football (robo-quarterback was his nickname in college). Watching him hook up with the best receiver in football is gonna be sweet. This will require that Bledsoe stays upright but if they give him some protection, it will be an amazing season for the Cowboys.

You are correct sir.

Robo-QB has been shredding defenses since his days at Washington State. And The Answer is thrilled that Bledsoe finally has a true weapon to exploit for the first time in his illustrious 14 year NFL career.

No NFL passing record is safe this season!

[The Answer]

yeah me too...I like Bledsoe, I was pretty pleased with how he played last yr (especially when compared to the clowns we've had at QB since Aikman retired)

strongest AND most accurate arm clearly would be Carson Palmer right now IMO, and isnt isnt close IMO either

Bledsoe is probably in the mix when you factor in strongest AND most accurate (not one or the other but combined) but he isnt close to Palmer

What is will all the Palmer love? It's almost as bad as the lust for Peyton Manning.....

Palmer is a great young QB, but he only had one good season. And just like Manning, he has plenty of toys to play with. The Answer wants to see how he responds this season after coming off a serious injury and what he can do in the playoffs if he makes it there and is healthy.

It's ludicrous to say that Bledsoe isn't close to Palmer...if anything Palmer isn't even close to Bledsoe right now.

There are always several factors to consider so ranking players is always subjective. But to say TO is not one of the top 5 WR's in the league is going to be a tough sell.

Huh?

Palmer had one of the best seasons of any QB last year.

Bledsoe didn't.

Its really that simple.

Bledsoe didn't.

Its really that simple.

Palmer has only put up good numbers for a year and a half.....and his career is still in question given the injury he suffered in the playoffs.

Bledsoe has been doing it for 13 years now...and is ready to really turn things up with the addition of TO.

It's really that simple.

Palmer's only been doing it for 1.5 years because he's only been a starter for 2 years.

Injury aside, Palmer is the better QB.

Bledsoe's best year was in '97. And he paled in comparison to what Palmer did last season.

Actually when he had Glenn and Jefferson, he did pretty well. If not for Randy White, the Pats would have won it all that year and we'd all be talking about Bledsoe instead of Brett Favre being HOF bound.

 

[Hostile]

His girlfriend (ex?) couldn't get you excited? **, they need to make sure you have a pulse. Someone hold a mirror under AFs nose.

 

[Cowchips]

If TO cooperates and the line is a bit better than last year, there won't be any debate about who the better QB is between Palmer and Bledsoe. You can bank on that. Palmer has a huge age advantage, obviously but that would be about it.

Bledsoe's best year was in '97. And he paled in comparison to what Palmer did last season.

Bledsoe has been putting up big numbers his entire career with average to subpar offensive talent around him, even worse he's had no real semblance of an offensive line.

Guys like Manning and Palmer have had top offensive lines blocking for them, as well as a pletheura of great WR's, TE's and RB's around them....

Palmer passed for 3836 yards last season....less than 200 more than Bledsoe.
He had 32 TD's, but again look at the studs he has catching the football....The Answer isn't that impressed by Palmer and he's not even among the top 5 QB's in the game right now.
