Drew Bledsoe. (in my humble, uneducated opinion)

Drew is relatively slow in getting back for the handoffs, and it seems that as a result, Jones is constantly hit in the backfield. Watching other QB's today dropback quickly and handoff quickly just adds to the frustration...

Oh well...have a great game Drew, hope you're feeling OK.

Why stop there?? Bledsoe is the reason our D can't get to the QB... He's why they get tired so fast, them being on the field all that time. He's also the reason the gunners on the punt coverage team can't get down to stop the returner. they're tired from all that running from all the punting we do. yada yada. Blame Bledsoe for everything... pile on, everyone else is.

See Chris Simms drop back quickly.

See Chris Simms throw without making a proper read.

Oooooh, if only the defensive back held onto the ball!

tough crowd. :eek::

Bledsoe's predictability and immobility in the pocket puts an extra strain on OL's and RBs. It might be a problem. I don't think his dropback is, tho.

He actually is right. Bledsoe is very slow at getting back to hand the ball off.

My semi pro team had the same problem, then i mentioned that to the coach, he told the qb to get back quicker, problem was solved, we ran great after that.

the d-line is usually done fighting off the block and ready for julius by the time he gets the ball. Now thats the o-lines fault also.

just sayin i agree it seems like everyone blames drew for everything, but this time i agree with ya on it

there's actually something there, I think we had so many center-exchange problems last year that Drew started hesitating a split-second on the exchange...he's a half step slow to get the handoff to JJ and slower to set up to pass. It also is part of the problem that causes him to get sacked and hurried so often
