For those that can remember the Blake years

[Joelist]

The slow start in 1996 was partly on poor scheming and partly on Blake himself. I liked him a lot but there were holes in his game which centered around touch on his short passes and also the technical aspects of the QB position. Remember when we brought in Boomer those last five game he put on a clinic in QB excellence. But Mikey would not do the obvious thing and sign him for the next season.

Blake was a cool QB but he needed seasoning and a lot of work on his short passing game.
