Many teams will make player, coaching moves

Should the New England Patriots move forward with Tom Brady or Drew Bledsoe in 2002?

Many… Should the New England Patriots move forward with Tom Brady or Drew Bledsoe in 2002?

Many teams will be faced with the dilemma of which players and coaches should be kept and which should be let go.

Some teams have started to make moves. Some great coaches have been let go, but most teams will probably begin to make their major moves after the Rams beat the Steelers in Super Bowl XXXVI.

Yeah Pittsburgh, I said it!

The Patriots started out 0-2 under Bledsoe before Bledsoe had to take a seat due to an injury that caused internal bleeding.

Brady, who was the 199th draft pick overall in 2000 out of Michigan, has resurrected the New England Patriots as they clinched the AFC East this season and will likely will end their season in the AFC championship this Sunday.

The question is whom do you move forward with? You have a Pro Bowl quarterback who has been taking the snaps for nine years and led the Patriots to the Super Bowl five years ago. Then there is Brady, the second year man who took the winless Patriots and proceeded to go 13-3 including the playoffs.

It has been a great story to follow as Brady has taken a team that until about week 11 not many figured would even be in the playoffs and certainly not be in the AFC Championship.

Brady showed a lot when he brought his team back last Saturday against the Raiders. Of course he had the help of the immaculate incompletion, but I would have to go back with the proven starter. Drew Bledsoe should be the quarterback in 2002.

For all we know, Brady
