Although he finished his career with the Chicago Bears, Blake was formerly a quarterback for the New York Jets, Cincinnati Bengals, New Orleans Saints, Baltimore Ravens, Arizona Cardinals and Philadelphia Eagles. He was drafted in the sixth round of the 1992 NFL Draft by the Jets out of East Carolina University. His one Pro Bowl appearance came with the Bengals, when he was selected for the AFC team. In that contest, Blake threw for a then Pro Bowl record-long 92-yard touchdown pass to Yancey Thigpen.

Blake's best seasons came with Cincinnati in the mid-to-late 1990s (when he was often referred to as "Shake-N-Blake" by local media and fans); he established great rapport with Bengal receivers Carl Pickens and Darnay Scott, helping the former vie for the receiving title in 1995. He was widely regarded as the owner of the best deep ball in the league, a tightly spinning, soft, catchable pass.

A mobile quarterback, Blake has run for 2,027 career rushing yards and 14 touchdowns. His longevity has been legitimate, as shown by his 100 career starts. In 2007, Blake was inducted into the East Carolina Hall of Fame.
