Brady was knocked out early in the AFC Championship... Bledsoe came in and did well enough to win on the road in Pittsburgh. Spin it any way you want, there was a legitimate debate at the time about who should start the Super Bowl. It's easy to pass judgment in hindsight knowing what Brady went on to do. But if you start a 6th round QB over a 1st round pick who has the biggest contract in football... you better be right.

Brady didn't win the AFC Championship, Bledsoe did. Brady got injured.

'00 Ravens?

Shit, I bet they wouldn't even have gotten out of their own division against Brunell's Jags.

Well, he wouldn't have beaten the 2000 Ravens.

Because if Belichick has stayed in Cleveland, that means the Browns stayed in Cleveland.

And therefore, the Ravens don't exist.

Watched the show last night.

It just dawned on me, and you see this in the video in the OP, When Demetrof & ***** meet in Scott's mansion. I want the next set of Chiefs to be filled with types of what that famous crew used to be.

These guys. Young, hungry, full of talent & work harder than the rest.

You tellin me that those guys (even though I'd take Demetrof in a second) are working as hard now as they used to in the show?

It also sickened me as a reminder that Scott traded Tony to his buddy's team. I mean honestly. Can you work a deal at all that doesn't involve one of your old cronies?

Look at Lombardi's mustache!!!

notorious · 10-05-2012, 07:50 AM

Wow, they only paid 401 million for that stadium?

It's amazing how much prices have skyrocketed!

Plenty of success in the college ranks off that tree. Agreed that pro success hasn't been there outside of Dimitroff.

Not by himself. Patriots were winning 7-3 when Brady got hurt, and had completed a long(ish) pass to Troy Brown. It was in the 2nd quarter.

And I agree that Bledsoe definitely helped win the game, but everyone forgets that he made one of the most asinine throws I've ever seen in that game too -- throwing it blindly over his head backwards when he got turned around and was about to be sacked. In a massive defensive struggle he begged for a pick six that could've swung the game.

You have no idea how split the fan base up here was over that SB decision. To me it was a no brainer for Brady, but many here thought otherwise. And by many, I mean MANY!

Still, it's revisionist history to suggest that Belichick had an "easy" decision or anything of the sort.

The unwritten rule is that a starter doesn't lose his job to injury. BB deserves credit for thumbing his nose at tradition...

Oh I agree with that, and BB deserves massive credit.

Keep in mind two things -- first that all coaches, but NFL coaches especially, tend to be very conservative and tend to do the things that, all else being equal, will get them the LEAST criticism if it fails. BB definitely doesn't fall into that category. Picking Brady to start the SB is one example. A less successful one is 4th and 2 against Indy -- A DECISION I SUPPORTED THEN AND SUPPORT NOW. Just because a decision doesn't succeed doesn't mean the wrong choice was made.

Second, BB got crucified in Cleveland for benching, whoever it was -- Kosar I guess. Now he's going against the grain and picking the new guy to start the Super Bowl over the former number 1 pick guy. That takes titanium testicles...
