Why did you bring me here?

Throw me in the camp of "I can't blame him."

I hate to see his old cancerous ways emerge, but why DID we sign him if we're not going to use him more?

My opinion has always been that it only makes sense to commit to TO if we're willing to make a (even slight) philosophical change on offense. Before the season, I even said we better not be planning on just sliding TO into Key's old role.

We have a tremendous weapon and it seems like we're content with using him as a decoy. I don't care much for that.

Jerry was in a bad mood and Chance asked him about Drew and his bad game. Jerry said something to the effect that Drew will go out and have a good game next week...............he sarted to say some cliche, but didn't remember how it went.

I think he said something about that's what pros do, and Bledsoe's a pro...something to that extent, right?

We are playing freaking Houston next week, saying Bledslow will have a good game means nothing. A trained chimp would probably have good numbers against that putrid Houston D.

I wished that reporter had the biscuits to ask Jerry why our statue throws 3+ INTs every time we play a half decent team on the road.:mad:

Is it to late to send BP and Drew Bledsoe to New Orleans in exchange for Sean Payton and Drew Brees?

Dale, were you watching Sports Sunday?

Chance also mentioned that the talk in the press box was about TO ebing a decoy..........JJT has an article about this.

Hopefully they will put it up on WOAI.com

I said it another thread and i'll repeat it here. I think this is more an Bledose issue than a coaching issue.

He's the guy who makes the reads and pulls the trigger. And there is no doubt that especially in a game like today when he is under the gun, he looks for Glenn first.

For all we know there were 50 plays called for TO today and Drew just didn't get him the ball. We don't have enough info to blame it on the coaches scheme.

Yeah, I was.

I believe Chance also mentioned Larry Brown telling him in the elevator that Bledsoe looked like a rookie there in that two-minute drive.

Ok, I agree with this. I'll definitely concede the point that "using" him correctly may not be the problem. I'm not sophisticated enough to know the patterns he's running every play and whether or not we're using creative ways to get him the ball.

But, whatever the problem is, there does appear to be a problem with getting him the ball.
