Maybe Teddy Bridgewater wasn’t that bad….

I'm gonna sit here sipping my "I was content w/ Teddy" tea knowing full well this entire board was having an aneurism at the idea of him starting another game.

Truth is tho even I was wrong at the time, dude could not go deep. And without Curt? It wouldnt have been pretty.

Curt and Mike Davis were just as important to 2020's 'success' on offense.

Bridgewater games always went to the wire and to a field goal we would always miss. People love to poo on him here in this sub but the games were actually exciting to watch and we could actually move the ball. He played behind a putrid O-Line and was always running for his life.  I guarantee if he was on the team today, we would be leading our division. 

Think of all the draft picks and cap we would have saved if we had just stuck with him instead of making him the sacrificial lamb.

We lost a 2nd round pick and paid Darnold 20 million to ride the bench lmao

He wasn't BAD, he just wasn't good. 

 

Say what you want about swinging and missing on Teddy, Darnold and Baker,  a positive about this team is they will not be content on QB's and keep swinging. 

except they don’t know how to hold a bat and are facing the wrong way

Bridgewater wasn't anything special.

What he was though was right about Matt Rhule.

Most of us didn't believe him because we thought what he was saying sounded ridiculous, and it was.

Unfortunately, it was also the truth.

And for that crime he had to be banished.  We really showed him.  I'll bet Rhule pulled his scholarship, too.

That whole escapade was when I started to think Rhule was a dead end.

He was terrible at that job. He definitely lost games. Every time the game was close late he crapped the bed. 

I expected him to make mistakes, but that I recall the team was in every single game.  Listen I'm not calling the guy Peyton Manning.  I think he was average, and for a team that realistically at best could get a spark to make the playoffs, sometimes an average QB that won't consistently play crappy is all you need.

Yeah, but the games were at least fun to watch even though we would end up losing. It would always come down to last minute drive that would end in a missed field goal or Teddy trying to make a play that would lead to an interception. In the last 2 seasons, has anyone even had a chance to lead a game winning touchdown or field goal? Only one I can think of is the Atlanta game this year.

They were never going to replicate that first season even if Teddy were allowed to stay here.

Rhule had his shot to draft a qb twice and chose to get his people to fix someone else's draft busts.

      Not sure how much he was a long term piece of this team.   Sucks to not have him as part of the rotation.   Looks like it's Lee Hunter time.

      I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.
