"Such a warm welcome," Belichick said."I can't tell you how much it means to me to come back here and see the great Patriot fans." As part of a panel that took fans inside the quarterback meeting room -- which included Drew Bledsoe, Matt Cassel, Brian Hoyer and longtime coordinator Josh McDaniels -- Bledsoe delivered one of the quips of the night. Reflecting on 2001, Bledsoe said Brady was the worst backup quarterback in the history of the NFL., Ed Reed and Jason Taylor played on the videoboard before emcee Mike Tirico told Brady there was one player who said he only wanted to make his remarks in person -- Peyton Manning.
