Gustavo Fabregas true. he probably wouldn’t of won the SB. but he may have gotten them to the playoffs

@Gustavo Fabregas I mean he did come in during the AFC Championship that year and beat Pittsburgh so I have no doubts he could have done a good job in the playoffs. Whether he could have gotten them there is a different story. But I do think that eventually Belichick might have chucked Brady in at some point, probably for the 2002 or even the 2003 season

I think Brady would of still be the starter anyway in 2001 if the Pats continued to struggle with Bledsoe

Belichick gets fired and Brady goes somewhere else other than New England.

Based on what enberg was saying "bledsoe wasn't injury related" even though he obviously was. Drew would have been benched soon after. He was playing like crap

It was a good Jets team. This was the "You play to win the game" season where they went 10-6 and made the playoffs. Edwards would take his Jets to the playoffs 3 times in his 5 seasons.

Paul Gaither nah that was the next year

@@matthewwalker9205 - They went 10-6 and made the playoffs in 2001, but ypu are right that his speech was 2002, when they also made the playoffs. The main point was the Jets had 3 playoff seasons in 5 years with Edwards and were not a bad team.

From 1998 to 2002 the Jets were 7-3 against the Pats and were 5-0 in Foxboro

Generally you want to do something life-affirming since the sense of loss is over the loss of their ability to go on with their lives so they definitely wanted him to go on with his. To that extent hopefully the game was cathartic. Football is very important to many first responders so they are indirectly enriched by these "meaningless" athletes.

I'm two years late to this comment lol. I could be mistaken, but I think this was before 9/11. Like only days before. This game was Sunday, and 9/11 was the following Tuesday.

@@thetoptige8014 whoops, I got my games mixed up

The jets are the reason why the dynasty exsists

you're welcome

And the tuck rule

Your welcome

Can the jets do it again

it's all on display here. forcing the ball into coverage, delay of game w/ no clue what shot clock was doing, innacurate throws, crushing picks in the endzone causing eruptions of booing, endless ball patting looking for someone to release downfield while the protection breaks down and everyone blames the O line for being terrible...you forget how bad he really was. And Kraft knew he was the only thing selling tickets and invested like half the cap on his contract -- then the biggest in NFL history. There was absolutely nothing gifted to Tom, there was tremendous pressure on him all season, he had to take control from the first snap. To this day he is known as a "game manager" for those early seasons....there were no superstar weapons. Troy Brown and Kevin Faulk were the greatest weapons on those teams. Try managing games and winning titles on a team where the consensus best player is the kicker. How many other guys are winning on that team? Mahomes? Elway? the answer is nobody. This team was ranked 32 out of 32 going into the season by SI. And somehow the story is Brady just relied on the team to carry him. They didn't carry Drew and he was the highest paid player in the league. If you don't think it helps a defense when the offense is getting first downs and controlling the game and scoring you are a moron.

Yeah didn't realize he stayed in until i watched this. Regardless of how injured he was BB was done with him, it's understandable considering the mistakes he made that veteran qb's shouldn't be making including that brutal endzone pick

@@Heb.2000I bet Mahomes could. He extends plays like a wizard. To say he couldn’t is just stupid. Brady really had nothing to lose considering New England was so bad, so in my opinion that took a ton of pressure off him. It would be different if Brady was the one who got hurt and Bledsoe had to fill in for him. That would be a ton of pressure.

​@@Heb.2000You think a guy that was given a 100 million was really bad? That's a pretty idiotic take. You don't think Brady had bad games?

Not just that, it was named for those who made our country free from Britain.

winning and at the same time fucking themselves over for the next 19 years is probably the most jets thing the jets ever did

kingike25319 underrated

Now it's the bills time to strike back

There's also the Colts. But like energy bending it was separated from the rest.

Bill didn't want to choose Brady, Erick was the one who convinced him to do so.

Actually, there were 5 Bills, Dolphins, Jets, Pats, and Colts. The league realigned after the 2001 season. Since the AFL/NFL merger in 1971, the Colts, Steelers, and Brown's became AFC teams switching conferences. The Colts (Then in Baltimore), joined the East, while the Steelers and Brown's joined the Central initially, and then was renamed the North when. other expansion occurred

It was because that was too grim of a subject to interview given the national sentiment at the time.

@@John572d4bro mo lewis really lucked out there huh

What you talking about, don't you know that the NFL just pulled the tuck rule out their ass in the divisional round against the Raiders because they wanted the Patriots to win. And that is the only time the tuck rule ever occurred.

@@joshds123_3 This video actually proves you wrong. Many people believe what you say, but it actually isn't quite true. You can tell that that was the rule used in this game because the call had the exact same wording.

@@angelenriqu1 Yet for some reason the AFC East has the most wins in the NFL since 2001. Hmmmm...... Maybe you're wrong.

That is not strange at all. It could be a fun fact but the word strange has a definition.

@@Onthebrink5 Yeah, a more apt word would be "amazing"

I'm here after he announced his retirement. I watched this game for some reason. I wasn't much into football back then, and only loosely kept abreast of the standings. The Patriots were and are my home team, so I've always been a fan; if you can call it that.

Bill has said he almost made Brady the starter that year because he had a much better camp than Bledsoe.

That team was a thousand times better with Brady, and everyone knew it. The offense was so bad in this game, and the Cincinnati game. Once Brady was entrenched, they started putting up some serious points, and taking care of the ball. Bellichik might have made the change mid-season, had Drew not gotten hurt, but it would have been too late for that season, and I have to believe that 2001 set the stage for Brady’s entire career. When Drew came in against the Steelers in late January, that was a much, much better team than he took the field with in September, thanks to Tom Brady.

Exactly.

Lmao no u idiots go ahead and look at the tom brady one this one is a good call. The one against my Raiders! He "tucked it" meaning he put the ball between his hips then with no intension to try and throw it! This one he did u can see it. B.s. call against the Raiders

@@skullisland2214 I disagree. His arm was clearly going forward.

yeah but he took too many sacks and couldnt check down his receivers...decent arm but frustrating to watch honestly...i was defintely over it by the time he got injured.

Then Bledsoe goes to the Cowboys, gets hurt, and paves the way for Tony Romo.

@@bobbywood8322They probably wouldn't even make Super Bowl 45 vs GB if the Pats didn't lose to the Jets too.

Lol I think that will be a bad taste since Bledsoe nearly died from that hit he's not a bad QB during the 90s even lead the Pat's to their second sb appearance in the 96 season. Not a Bledsoe fan I was too young at the time its like saying let's put a statue of carson wentz getting his leg tored up next to the philly special statue

@@thenewjord50 But if Mo Lewis doesn't hit Bledsoe, Carson Wentz maybe playing for St. Louis and not Philly in this butterfly effect timeline history.
