But it's impressive the team even made it that far, say the Patriots and their fans, considering they've were stuck starting backup quarterback Tom Brady.


"Drew Bledsoe is our franchise quarterback — has been since we drafted him No. 1 overall in 1993," said Patriots owner Robert Kraft. "He's been to four Pro Bowls. So when you lose someone like him to injury and have to start a sixth round compensatory draft choice … well, that's tough to overcome. With Drew in there, I'm confident we would have won the Super Bowl."
