Cowboys...ha...sure...everyone knocks ths Skins for having Brunell at QB and say he'll be out downfall...but what about Bledsoe? He's NEVER been that great at QB, even in his "glory days", he got benched for a kid named Tom. In Buffalo, he was just HORRIBLE and hasn't done much better in Dallas.

You have to remember WHY Bledsoe was benched he suffered a devastating hit from Jets LB Mo Lewis, which caused internal bleeding in his chest, and backup quarterback Tom Brady led the team for the rest of the regular season. The best thing to happen to Brady was that injury to Bledsoe.
And oh yes even in his "glory days" as you put it he has more seasons with 370+ completions than any other quarterback in NFL history, been to the Pro Bowl 4 times from 2 different teams (once while in Buffalo when yousay he was "horrible"). And in 2005, Bledsoe became the 10th quarterback in NFL history to pass for 40,000 yards.
And he and Brunnel entered the league in the same year. So in comparison making these statements is a bit like the pot calling the kettle black.
