Netflix skit had Bill Belichick choosing Tom Brady over Drew Bledsoe, again

Netflix’s “The Roast of Tom Brady” had more than just jokes for the greatest quarterback in NFL history. It also took aim at former New England Patriot Drew Bledsoe in a hilarious skit involving both Brady and former coach Bill Belichick.

One of the biggest moments in sports history was Belichick naming Brady the starter over Bledsoe for the Patriots in 2001. That moment kick-started the greatest dynasty in NFL history, while also officially bringing an end to Bledsoe’s run in New England.

On Sunday, the trio of Belichick, Bledsoe and Brady were involved in a hilarious skit on the same scenario playing out for the Netflix special.

“It’s great seeing you again. This is a big night,” said Belichick. “The fans want you. Everyone wants you. But it’s not your night. Sorry, Drew. Brady, you’re in. Let’s go.”

Bledsoe then responded, “Are you [expletive] kidding me? Again?”

There’s no shame in getting passed up for the greatest quarterback to ever do it. Of course, that goes without saying Bledsoe had a legendary career in his own right as a four-time Pro Bowler and former NFL passing yards leader.
