Minnesota Vikings2020 QB: Teddy Bridgewater

Primary QB from 2014-16: Teddy Bridgewater
Total team QBR 2014: 47.5 | 2015: 56.2 | 2016: 53.1
Bridgewater returns from a brutal knee injury and subs for an injured Case Keenum in 2017. When he plays well enough to get the Vikings to the NFC title game -- which they lose to the Eagles -- they sign him to be their QB of the future.

itempropCARLOS GONZALEZ, STAR TRIBUNEMinnesota Vikings cornerback Trae Waynes (26) reacted after breaking up a pass in London.TEXT SIZE
MORE SID HARTMAN SID HARTMAN @SIDHARTMANVikings cornerback Trae Waynes struggled through his rookie season in 2015 after being selected No. 11 overall out of Michigan State, appearing sparingly in 15 games and recording 30 tackles.
Last year he started to show some signs of improvement as he again appeared in 15 games but started eight, had 50 tackles and four interceptions and tied for the team lead with 11 pass deflections.

inRead invented by TeadsAt the start of this season, Vikings coach Mike Zimmer said he had high expectations for Waynes, and that it might have been part of the reason he struggled early on.
“I think he’s handled it really well,” Zimmer said. “I think this will be a big year for him, hopefully he comes in and he plays great. That’s what we’re expecting.”
So far that has been true. Waynes has started every game at cornerback along with Xavier Rhodes, and they have become one of the best cornerback duos in the NFL.
Waynes is fourth on the team in tackles at 42, leads the team in pass deflections with eight and is second with two interceptions.
In their most recent victory against Cleveland on Oct. 29 in London, Pro Football Focus noted Waynes was a standout against the pass, and also that he has been one of the best cornerbacks in the league against the run.
“His physical presence in coverage was key for the Vikings secondary,” they wrote. “Targeted seven times in coverage, he allowed just two receptions for 22 yards, breaking one pass up, and forcing another incompletion with heavy contact.”
Yes, Waynes appears to be coming into his own. He said that one of the best parts about being on this Vikings squad is that he has had a number of players help him improve his game.

Holy crap would that blow some minds.   https://www.gomn.com/sports/if-aaron-rod...us-trouble

15,000 yards. Well done. He is such an amazing athlete and a pretty awesome guy. 

What was that? Ref wanted Russell Wilson to get looked at. So he goes into the tent and comes right back out without getting looked at. How does that work? 

so glad this is over for us
