Jeff Blake

[Bryan]

So let me start this by saying, Jeff Blake played before I became a Bengals fan and all that I knew about him came from this board. That said I watched his interview with Willie Anderson on Instagram and listening to him talk he sounds like he is incredibly intelligent and understands the QB position like very few do. Also listening to Big Willie gush over him was quite interesting. It also seems like the Bengals front office did him dirty. The way Blake describes it is the coaches had to push to keep him in the line-up as the front office never saw him as their guy, that they were always trying to replace him either with Boomer, Neil O'Donnell, or Akili. Could anyone who was a fan around that time tell me if that seems accurate? And share some of your favorite Blake memories as I'm very interested in learning more about the guy.
