Bashers like to point out every Drew INT as if it's his fatal flaw, but I've noticed that following an Interception, that Drew gets all fired up and has some of his best drives. So I painstakingly went through all 9 INTs this year, and recorded his stats on the next 1 or 2 drives:

@SF: INT returned for TD
Next drive: Bledsoe 4/4 77 yards, TD (J. Witten)

@SF: INT
Next drive: Bledsoe 2/3 71 yards, Rush TD (J. Jones)

@OAK: INT (Hail Mary)
Next drive: Bledsoe 3/4 38 yards, TD (K. Johnson - nullified by penalty)

NYG: INT (Hit as he released to wide open Glenn)
Next 2 drives: Bledsoe 9/10 98 yards TD (Witten)

SEA: INT (Off Glenn to defender)
Next drive: Bledsoe 2/2 18 yards

SEA: INT (returned for FG)
Next drive: (Arizona) 2/2 9 yards

PHI: INT (passed to noone as he was dragged down)
Next 2 drives: 4/5 31 yards

DEN: INT returned for TD
Next drive: Bledsoe 5/5 46 yard TD (K. Johnson)

DEN: INT
Next 2 drives: 3/5 44 yards TD (rushing)

Total: 32/36 (88%) 438 yards 6 TDs (4 Passing (1 nullified), 1 rushing, 1 Jones rushing) Rating: 163.6

The Moral: the next time Drew throws an INT could be reason to celebrate.

I don't really understand your point here. It's almost as if you are asking for more INT's so Drew can bounce back w/a good drive.

It's the QB's job to bounce back after an INT, if he doesn't, he probably wouldn't be playing and as such, the stats which you have produced aren't really surprising.

Bottom line for me is, Drew is doing a lot better job than I had anticipated and I am personally satisfied w/the job he's done thus far.

Some really poor choices have been made along the way but some beautiful throws have been tossed as well.

I was joking about celebrating a pick. Factor in those 9 picks and even with the stellar numbers above his rating is 48. But doing vs SF was different than vs Denver. I think this offense can do it against anyone if they can shore up the O-Line and open some holes for the running game.

I miss SBK more

Talk about being dead *** wrong on hybrids and all things 3-4. He took the crown and made the 4-3onites here look good. He was wrong ahead of his time.

Now I know why I liked the boozeman.....

Have you considered checkers? Comedy just isn't your gig. You tell the same jokes over and over and over. I laughed...one time. Gave you some kudos. Ever since it's the same joke. I hope you change underwear more than you do jokes.
