Really don’t try to make a tackle with the game on the line. Wow 

Let’s be real… if I was a Denver fan I’d be upset. On the contrary, if I was a Denver fan and let’s say Josh Allen was the QB and the same play occurred I wouldn’t care.

It’s a double-standard and it exists.

I will say that over half the Broncos roster had a chance to make the tackle and they all failed… it’s easy to pick out Bridgewater but it really shouldn’t have gotten to that point.

Like the papers read… business decision.

I mean, Teddy could have made an attempt, and while he could have slowed Slay down, he wasn’t going to be able to tackle him.

 

Im not as hard on QBs when it comes to stuff like this. Cam ruined his shoulder making a tackle, that looking back, I wish he would’ve just let him go.

I don't even blame him for protecting his body. It's his generally uncompetitive nature that kills me. The guy visibily does not care very much about his teams and if I can see it on TV I can't imagine how his teammates must feel.

Yea, he does look like he just doesn’t give a damn on that play. You’re right, in that his teammates probably feel/felt a certain way. To make matters worse, it also looks like he tripped up a fellow teammate.

Yeah I concur with others about risk of injury after what happened to Cam. But everyone in that locker room with Ted might not feel the same way when they go over the tape from that game and that's part of being the leader on offense. That's the job.

It's easy to cherry pick any one play to pile on someone.

It wasn't a great effort by Teddy but there is definitely a double standard with QBs.

Brady wouldn't even attempt to stop someone to risk getting hurt.

I was glad we got rid of Teddy, but I will never question his toughness. Anyone who does should read what happened to him on the Vikings practice field (he absolutely could have died or been permanently disabled) on one of the most freak sports injuries ever.

To be able to come back from that and play with guys coming at you every play... only a couch warrior would discount that

People were questioning Teddy's desire to win while here, but I definitely remember a 4th down conversion run where Teddy absolutely put his body in jeopardy to fight for the yardage.

    • This is gonna be longest six weeks ever 
    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
