Teddy didn't get the memo

Apparently TB didn't get the memo that he was suppose to be a "bridge QB".

We might end up losing the next 12 games and get the no1 pick (I doubt it) and at that point Teddy will become a "bridge" QB, but can people now admit that the front office didn't view Teddy as a purely "bridge QB?

His contract alone should have told people that, but either they couldn't understand that or they were just unwilling to accept it.  This coaching staff/front office believes they can win with Teddy and that is why they paid as much as they did.  They might turn out to be wrong but that is an entirely different discussion.

I’m not a fan of Teddy as the future but the man does just keep on winning by doing what’s asked of him. If Delhomme can take this franchise to a Super Bowl appearance, Teddy can. We have a top 10 offense right now. Rhule and Brady are geniuses. We don’t need a QB anymore. 

Which is why he likely is just a bridge QB. We can draft a guy this year or next and let him sit behind Teddy for a year.

Varking is a Teddy hater. Go root for someone else. 

Me not believing he’s a franchise QB yet four games into his tenure doesn’t make me a hater. Further, I’ve been around for Matt Moore and Jimmy Clausen. I can absolutely be a fan of the Panthers while being supremely skeptical of the QB. You’re an absolute idiot if you believe you have any influence over me being a fan or not.

Drew Brees was supposed to be a bridge for the Saints. He’s going into the HOF now

And I’ll eat crow when he’s performing at a HOF level. Until then it’s silly to compare him to a HOF QB.

Teddy's Stats extrapolated over 16 games

4588 pass yards 16 tds 12 int 

280 rush yards 4  tds

Passing Yards would have been ranked 5 last year.  Touchdowns would be ranked 25 last year.

If he could get a few more touchdowns it would look a lot better, I think he is trending that way

It was always pretty obvious the Panthers plan was to win with Bridgewater and they also will draft a QB next season in the first round if there’s one they really like when it’s their pick.  

Plenty of times a team drafts a QB they really like when they have a solid starter like Bridgewater on their roster.

Unless he lights the world on fire the rest of the year he is absolutely a bridge QB. That doesn’t mean he’s trash, it just means they would have found out he’s not a franchise carrier. 

I'm not saying he is or isn't.  My point was that the team thinks he has the chance to be one.  

A lot of posters around here were of the opinion that he was only signed to be a bridge QB, but his contract said otherwise.

I believe you’re also missing four lost fumbles to that over 16 games, but otherwise perfect work.

He has a chance for sure. I don’t think the contract restricts them. 21 mil isn’t a ton for a QB anymore and we have a lot of cap space opening up.

Do you remember Rodney Peete? How about Steve Beuerlein?
