If you don't give Teddy credit for the wins, why do you blame him for the losses? Are you two faced or something? So you are looking for a super hero to as you say drag this bag of bones called the Panther to a super bowl. Good luck with that. Here's a tip, when you go to find your hero, don't give up next years first cause it's going to be a good one.

Yeah just like when your old lady's phone blows up after the bars close is just guys doing their due diligence.

I was just quoting an article. You need to relax Teddy.

Brady gave the ball to a fullback on fourth down with the game on the line with CMC lined up right beside him. You want to get rid of Brady now? 

Someone must have learned a new word, and now they think it applies everywhere. A strawman is when you invent an unrelated subject and then argue against it. Telling you that the defense and offensive line, and not Teddy, are the problems with the Panthers, is not unrelated to the subject, which happens to be the reasons to replace Teddy Bridgewater.

Brady took plenty of heat for that call and many others (you might see that if you ventured outside of the Teddy threads), and there were heaps of criticism thrown his way when all of the HC talk was happening. He was a first-year coordinator this year though so growing pain was/is expected - a very different story than someone who has been in the league for 6 years (7 now) and started multiple season's worth of games but still plays like a rookie. If Brady shows a lack of development beyond his rookie year, as Teddy has, then proper criticism will come his way along with proper expectations. At this moment though the two situations are not directly comparable.

But Brady is yet another strawman. You continue to present these arguments and deflect blame without acknowledging Teddy's performance, which is the only relevant topic in this QB-centric thread. You've been shown by myself and plenty of others how his deficiencies are self-contained and independent of other factors and yet continue to attack them... that's exactly what a strawman is.

Strawman: "an intentionally misrepresented proposition that is set up because it is easier to defeat than an opponent's real argument." Pretty apt description of your responses.

I don't think it's Teddy himself, but I do believe someone from Teddy's entourage or maybe his agent are trolling the internet trying to recover his value. When you go 4-11 as a starter and don't have a single game winning drive in an entire season, aside from your value as an NFL player you might need to recover some confidence too. Fanbase absolutely shredded Bridgewater this season.

Lol. Hey I respect you love a mediocre player so much you seem to want to jump on a grenade for him. But man you need to just calm down and realize Bridgewater isn’t that great. His stat were terrible with the Saints and he wasn’t that great with the Vikings. 
A starting QB doesn’t throw 15 TDs as an average. I would expect him to throw at least 20+ as I said above. Also I gave you stats that you promptly ignored. 
Also those 4 dudes in the draft, and even Mac Jones are much more talented then Teddy Checkdown.

Everything you said about the Cardinals, Chargers and the Falcons rings true about the Panthers. As a matter of fact, the Cardinals and the Chargers were better teams with better records than the Panthers. The Panthers defense was where opposing quarterbacks got paid. In a five point Panther loss blamed on Teddy Bridgewater, The future hall of famer Drew Lock roasted the defense lead by Teddy himself for 4 touchdown passes and a 149 rating for the game. I guess Teddy's got to work on his cover skills. But what must really gnaw at you guys is the fact that in two more games in which the Panthers lost by one score Teddy couldn't force the Chiefs or the Saints to punt not one time. I guess Teddy has to work on his tackling too.

I kind of see now why Teddy unfollowed the Panthers. I believe that he's telling whoever's running their mouth about finding a super bowl quarterback to get busy. Other teams must have heard the message too thus the phone calls. Answer the phone Panthers.

Believe me Teddy they will answer u gone bro

Why do I have to be Teddy? Can it be that your echo chamber is so small that you cant conceive that anyone can articulate support for Teddy Bridgewater?

Teddy doesn't have time for you. He's more than likely somewhere working on ways to beat what Tampa Bay, and New Orleans  will be throwing at him next year.

He might want to see what teams he is playing next year first, it wont be as a Panther. 

Its more likely he is finding new ways to deflect blame onto his teammates and coaches to cover up his short comings.

That was one GAME, Teddy lost 8 games that needed one game winning drive. He couldn’t win any of them nothing to do with Brady on all of those other ones sorry. He can’t hit I mean wide open Moore in the endzone, and then he didn’t try to get first down on 4th and 9 with game on the fugging line. Line was no problem he knew he was throwing it 2 yds before he threw. You suck Teddy, BYE

So you expect Teddy to cover for a Rookie Play caller, a Rookie coach, a tissue thin defense, a patch work offensive line and a injured running back, with three smallish receivers and no tight end. Well he did, but the Einsteins here believe you can get blood out of an onion.

Teddy squeezed as much as he could out of this lemon, but NFL coordinators will eventually take away what you do well, and in this case it was the three amigos that couldn't consistently beat the tight man to man.

What I'm doing here is giving Teddy the same slack that you are giving Brady, Rhule, the o-line and the defense.

Teddy isn't a Rookie. He's a vet NFL QB that should better than to throw a 2 yard pass on 4th and 9. He's being paid $20M a year. Which is way too much to go 0-8 when you have a chance to tie or win the game. And after a few years in the league, guys like Rhule & Brady won't get the same slack they do as 1st year HC & OC.

With this team, mediocre puts you in the hunt for team MVP. Your stats are irrelevant because Teddy didn't need to throw 20 touchdown passes to win. He needed an offensive line that could handle stunts and blitzes. 

Your problem is that you are impatient. You have visions of getting to a super bowl by giving away draft capitol and young talent for a quarterback who needs draft capitol and young talent in order to build a winning team. This is what teams like the Jets and the Browns do.

Yikes. 

Look man, I love Teddy the person. I was born and raised in Louisville. I was at the Sugar Bowl in the student section when he whooped the Gators in what at the time was the biggest upset in BCS bowl game history. Hell, my 10 year old Dog who I've had since he was a puppy is NAMED Teddy. Teddy Bridgewater is on my Louisville Athletics Mt. Rushmore. Like I said, I LOVE Teddy. 

But this take? Not even insinuating, but outright saying that DJ Moore, Curtis Samuel and Robby Anderson can't beat tight man and THATS why the offense struggled? I can't get behind that. Thjs is close to the worst take in the history of this message board and I was here for the Jimmy Clausen truthers.

There are numerous examples of all 3 of those WRs bailing Teddy out on poor throws, being missed on deep throws either because Teddy lacks the arm strength to get them the ball. At the end of the day simply does not have the physical tools to get it done at the NFL level as a high end starter. 

Do better man.

Teddy is the quarterback of the Panthers, he's not Jesus. If the only thing available is two yards then that's what you do. If he throws it into coverage and it gets picked you would be crying about that.

Question, who called the plays and sent in the personnel during that 0-8 stretch? How many opposing quarterbacks had career days during that stretch? How many running backs had 99 yard touchdown runs during that stretch? I'll be here all day. How many left tackles played during the 0-8.

    • As expected. Still no reason not to bring in competition via FA or draft. Bryce can be our bridge QB until we find ourselves our franchise QB. 
    • I've been here since the forum started.    It's an X through Fitterer because I couldn't stand him.   Very troll like behavior.      
    • I agree with this, wholeheartedly. Bryce tantalizingly has his moments, even his games. This past Saturday was one of those. He really became the Mouse that Roared after the team fell behind and the o-line started collapsing. And, in truth, I think had the play calling been better at the end, he might well have brought us back into another lead change. Talk about a legendary moment just missed. I'm going to get lambasted for this but as a cautionary tale, I want to just say we're sitting at a spot that the San Diego Chargers were way back in the day. They had a short-ish QB on a rebuilding team that was underwhelming most games, but had some really good moments. They decided instead to take a gamble on drafting someone new and letting that QB, Drew Brees, go find someone more willing to let him develop. They turned around and had a draft debacle with Eli Manning/Phillip Rivers, ending up with Rivers in the end. We've got to remember that Brees wasn't who he would become at that time, it would take a coach willing to open up the offense and give the tough young kid a chance to grow. Rivers would become the poster child for the guy who almost was. Brees will get a gold jacket someday to go with the Saints only Superbowl win. Bryce probably isn't Brees, only one guy was and he barely got the chance to be him. Giving Bryce another season, maybe two, on squad gives us the luxury of testing the waters and the growth.  QBs early in their careers take time. We saw Rogers last night at the end of his career (maybe), sputtering out before he heads to the barn for his spot in the HoF and we have to remember him at his best, after sitting on the bench for three years. And we have to look at the other side of that coin last night, CJ Stroud, a draft classmate of Bryce's who soared out of the gates but who has come to earth since. He's still a good QB with a long runway ahead of him, but his performance under the big spotlight wasn't as strong as Bryce's on this particular weekend. I'm not 100 percent sure Bryce will be the guy. I'd like to see some more fire in the young man, some push, something that shows he can force his will on the other team's defense.  I am, however, seeing a kid that can make the throws, who can improvise and who amazingly can run braver and faster than I really thought he could. I think he needs time, he needs more confidence and he needs more brave coaching. If he doesn't get that here, I think he might find it elsewhere. And we'd find ourselves like the Spanos family, sitting on the couch in February asking Phillip Rivers to pass the chips during the Super Bowl commercial breaks year after year.
