"Bledsoe sucked"

- Bledsoe was a Pro Bowl QB both before, and after, his time with Belichick


"But I need to see it over the course of a full season"

- The Chiefs have 9 wins, and will have a winning season


"But I need to see it in critical games"

- Cassel just came back from an appendectomy and helped win a game that the team needed in order to stay ahead of the Chargers


"But he hasn't won in the playoffs!"

- He hasn't played in the playoffs, either, because the 2008 Patriots were unlucky enough to become the only team to miss the playoffs with an 11-5 record since the league went to 4 divisions in the conferences. Manning is .500 in the playoffs, and Matt Ryan is 0-1 in the playoffs. Would you be bashing them, too?


If you think the threads haven't gone in a that sort of vein, you haven't been around here much.

I bash Manning all the time.
