Say old brehs, how good was Drew Bledsoe really?

[BlueHeffner]

like others said, good in the early 90s as a pat and that one yr on the Bills

Was absolutely on my Cowboys tho


Led us to the Romo era though

I just missed his peak, but always understood he was viewed as an elite guy at peak. He was Cousins-ish post New England, so still really good until he broke down...

He was very good but just outside the levels of a Marino Young Montana Moon etc. He was good enough to take you to the playoffs and he was respected but I don't think he was ever feared. He wasn't THAT dude but he was more then good enough for a team to be competitive.

It was the 90s. Wasn't any online communities, wasn't really any podcasts and intensive analysis. You had to watch him week to week which was probably hard unless you lived in NE or rooted for a AFC east team i guess
So I don't really remember much about dude since he wasn't a prime time type star like Aikman or Barry Sanders. nikkas was rocking his jersey though fwiw

he was a prototypical QB for his era
big strong arm, big size not particularly super accurate. obviously a statue.

him and Favre came into the league around the same exact time, and Favre kinda took that formula to much higher level
hed be in top 5-10 QBs in those 94 to 2000 seasons but never really could string it together for a prolonged time

He was a more accurate downfield passer than Tom though but more inaccurate at everything else lol. But he was a throwback QB with a big arm, he just held the ball too long, had zero poise in the pocket and had no mobility.
