1 Absoulte Certainty: No Teddy 2021 (That is all at this point)

[davos]

I'll preface this by saying this is not a usual thread for me and that there are only 11 QBs worth a sh*t in the league right meow.

--

And I'm trying to not be reactive to the SF/PHI/MIA moves.  I'm not going to be sporadic in the QB draft prospect rankings.  What I will be is absolutely certain about is what we cannot do:

Teddy Bridgewater

This is not intended to be mean spirited.  This is not intending to be character based.

This is strictly base around his inability to produce.  Produce excitement, produce game winning drives, throws downfield, produce WINS.  I honestly give zero sh*ts about stats.

We've been at the precipice of being a perennial powerhouse with 2 cores in our history:

Gross-Peppers-Rucker-Jenkins-Jake-Double Trouble-Smitty-Minter (We were dirty, if only we had better than Jake)

Luke-Cam-TD-Olsen-Index Card Massage IOUs

--

Now, we sit with CMC, DJ, Burns, Brown, Chinn...some DAMN good dudes. The question is QB.

And honestly, I don't believe we need an answer at this very instant.  We simply need to try the next option because TB is going nowhere.  That is the crux of what I'm saying.  Try someone new, see if it works.  I don't care who tf it is:

Justin Fields

Trey Lance

Kellen Mond

Sam Darnold

Gardner Mishnew

Nick Mullens

Drew Lock

Jake f*cking Rudock

--

We've experienced Jeff Lewis, Chris Weinke, Brian St. Pierre, Pickles, a 43 YO Testeverde, I mean, just get something in here that has potential.  There is no excuse to bring back Teddy.  It should never be a point mentioned ever again.  If we go back to him, it's like hooking up with a consistent squeeze you were never really into but found yourself in a mini rut.  DO NOT go back.  Release and take a chance on another rando.  At the best, we find ourselves in a Tommy Maddox, Delhomme, Romo, 

No Teddy.

No Teddy.

Signed,

Dickhead

Oh I will be.

Seriously, there's something weird about Teddy that makes me dislike him more than the Clausen and Hackenburgs of the world.  He seems like such a great dude but holy hell, get off our football team.

I sure hope so. I just see any reason to witness next years games going down by the day. This year it got to the point where I would play games on my computer and have the game on in the background and I still saw more than I wanted to see. If we roll into the season with Teddy as the starter it may be PS5 time and just watch the headlines. I just don't know what would be worse, Teddy or Jones. Completely disinterested in any of that nonsense.

Whatever, still a shred of hope and that's enough until the draft.

It’s because he acts like he still plays for NO
 

Edit: Oh and he’s not a real QB

Doesn't help matterd to guide the team to a 1-5 divisional record while chumming it up on the Saints bench in a bitter loss in the Superdome. Some of the ire he has brought on himself no doubt.

For me it's because he sucks any joy out of the game because I know who he is and what he is going to do. Dude is a little bitch with backup skills on the field and has been since he was drafted. I remember laughing at the Vikes when they picked him, not laughing now.

Because he's capable of being better if he had the guts. You can't tell me that Jared Goff or Kirk Cousins has more pure physical ability than Teddy. He could be that level of QB he just plays scared.

This is one thing teddy is not. You don’t go through what he’s been through and be a bitch.

I don’t want him to start here ever again but people need to calm down with this type of stuff.

It's weird right. All of that and he still plays like a little bitch on the field. Super nice off the field but that doesn't matter anymore.

He's a hell, and I mean one hell of a man.  But he's just not our QB.  I'm not calling him a "beta" or whatever these kids are calling it these days.  But being a survivor of some pretty hard sh*t in my life, I have a hard time even disclosing anonymously, that he just doesn't have "it".  And the way he reacted to losses made me strongly dislike him.
