We saw it in plain view during the Colts/Pats game in November..All the mediots were using the "But the Colts were injured" excuse for their..BS. Unless Manning or Brady are injured and out,neither team can use injuries as an excuse for a loss..And the only thing Brady learned from Bledsoe,is HOW NOT to play QB in the NFL..

I agree with 90% of that, but some of the reasons that the colts lost that game were miscues on the teams part, not necessarily manning. You rarely see the pat's make a miscue at all.
In a really tight bigtime game the colts will usually loose them, while the pat's will usually win them. the difference is BB and his team discipline.
You guys must hate beldsoe, but he was a very good quarterback and brady said that he taught him alot. Bledsoe carried your franchise for a number of years. I also remember Bledsoe playing with a broken finger on his right hand for several games just to get into the playoffs. If you had an offensive line or a running game bledsoe would have been better, that is not his fault. I remember bledsoe on his back a ton during his career especially with the pats. Didn't he also have a huge drive against the steelers when you almight brady hurt his ankle.
You guys really have very selective memories and love to bash ex-players. I would love to read what you say about your current patriots in 5 years or if they left the patriots.
