Subject: Back For Even MoreIn your last reply, you said thatthe Patriots won 3 Super Bowls with their backup. I guess you need some clarification, Patriots fan.
Not every team has had Tom Brady as their backup. The reason Bledsoe didn’t go back in when he was healthy is because he Brady better. Jeff Garcia is a backup. He will always be a backup. Jeff Garcia is not Tom Brady. simple as that.
Stop putting your hatemail up on your website. It just makes you look even dumber.
And you made it sort of obvious that you’re a Patriots’ fan because you keep everything to them. You really need a life.
First of all, I do not like the Patriots. I clarified in my second post that I was referring to the first Patriots Super Bowl run. Go ahead and read it again.
“Let’s go back to the first New England Super Bowl run. Drew Bledsoe goes down early in the season and the backup QB, Tom Brady, leads New England to Super Bowl and wins.
It is not uncommon for a backup QB to win a playoff game. It has happened many times; in fact since 2000, about half of the starting QBs in the Super Bowl were long time backups so I apologize but I am not so impressed that Garcia won a playoff game.”
The first Patriots Super Bowl run, Tom Brady was a 6th round pick no one expected to play. He was the backup quarterback. Drew Bledsoe gets hurt and the rest is history.
Don’t like using Brady as an example? How about Trent Dilfer? Jake Delhomme? Kurt Warner?
Let’s go back further. Frank Reich, Doug Williams and anyone Pittsburgh had at QB before Roethlisberger all won playoff games, some even making it to the Super Bowl (and winning).
Jeff Garcia had a nice run but what he did was not special. It was his job.
