<p>With the start of a new NFL season, the football scene has kicked off with a bang following recent comments from former <strong>New England Patriots</strong> quarterback about his relationships with <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/tom-brady">Tom Brady</a></strong> in Foxborough and <strong>Tony Romo</strong> during his time with the Dallas Cowboys.</p>



<p>In recent comments to <em>@ESPNNFL Sunday NFL Countdown</em>, Bledsoe made it clear that there were significant differences between Tom Brady’s debut in New England and his experience with Tony Romo, which was entirely different.</p>



<p>Regarding his particular situation with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/tony-romo">Romo</a>, the former quarterback of the Patriots, Cowboys, and Bills did not hesitate to state: <em><strong>“Romo, if you’re watching this, you know it’s true: the minute that he became a starter, he became pretty big — in his own mind… all of the sudden, Romo was the guy who had all the answers.”</strong></em></p>



<p>Highlighting the differences between the two quarterbacks he shared a roster with, <strong>Bledsoe said that after Tom Brady took his job with the Pats, he remained curious, whereas when Romo replaced Bledsoe in Dallas, Romo thought he had all the answers</strong>.</p>

<p>The words of the seasoned former quarterback, a hallmark of the New England Patriots, come just before a new NFL season, where both the Pats and the Dallas Cowboys will look to make the most of their resources and go as far as possible, although they are far from being considered major title contenders.</p>

<h2>The story of Bledsoe and Brady with the Patriots</h2>



<p>Drew Bledsoe, a star quarterback and the face of the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-england-patriots">New England Patriots</a> during the 1990s, was the team’s leader for years and led the Patriots to a Super Bowl appearance in 1996. However, in the 2001 season, Bledsoe suffered a chest injury during a game against the New York Jets.</p>



<p>Tom Brady, then a young second-round draft pick, stepped in as the starting quarterback. Despite being relatively inexperienced, <strong>Brady delivered an exceptional performance, leading the Patriots to a series of victories and ultimately to a Super Bowl XXXVI win</strong>. </p>



<p>This surprising rise of Brady not only changed the course of the season but marked the beginning of an era of dominance in the NFL. After his recovery, Bledsoe was ready to return to the field. However, the starting quarterback position was already firmly established, which is why Drew eventually landed with the Buffalo Bills.</p>

<h2>Drew Bledsoe major achievements</h2>



<p>One of the greatest quarterbacks in New England Patriots history, until his injury in a game against the Jets that marked the beginning of Tom Brady’s NFL career, was one of the franchise’s most important players.</p>



<p><strong>With unmatched talent, he was part of the Patriots team that reached Super Bowl XXXVI.</strong> Under the guidance of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bill-belichick">Bill Belichick</a> from the sidelines, they secured a narrow 20-17 victory over the St. Louis Rams and clinched the championship ring.</p>



<p>A Hall of Famer in New England, Bledsoe was also named a Pro Bowler in four different years: 1994, 1996, 1997, and 2002.</p>

<p><em><strong>“This is the biggest game Patrick Mahomes will ever play in for the rest of his career. It’s the only way to catch Tom Brady. He has to win this game. If he loses this game, he cannot catch Tom Brady, in my opinion,” </strong></em>Romo assured.</p>

<p>While this could be a bit of a stretch considering Mahomes still has over a decade of football left in him, he’s got a valid point. There would be <strong>an asterisk in his GOAT case</strong> if he loses a Super Bowl to a 43-year-old Tom Brady, even if he ends up passing him in rings – which is unlikely as Brady would have seven.</p>

<p>Patrick Mahomes is just 25 years old and is only getting better. His best years are ahead of him and he’s already dominated the NFL at will and put together a Hall of Famer kind of résumé, and beating Tom Brady at the ultimate stage will certainly make his flawless career <strong>even more legendary.</strong></p>
