Then how did Bledsoe get them to a Superbowl under Parcells and Bledsoe get nominated to so many Probowls? I'll admit Bledsoe was PART of the problem in 2000 and 2001. However look at the WR and RB's Brady had to work with in 2001, when he stepped in as a 6th round draft pick, never started an NFL game before. There are no hall of fame players there. Brady has done it with less big name talent than anybody else.
I'm sorry but you cannot fairly say Brady is overrated.
Yes the media has their knee pads on and blowing Brady and the Pats every night on TV.
But you can say that and even more for Manning and Urlacher. These two guys are the poster childs of the media and NFL and they have won nothing, THAT BY DEFINITION IS OVERRATED. Not Brady who has won three SB's.
