Zimmer: More recovery needed for Bridgewater
Interesting and confirms what most of us thought:
Brian Murphy @murphPPress 6m6 minutes ago
On Teddy Bridgewater's knee, Mike Zimmer said he felt the quarterback was progressing well in practice, but the Vikings medical staff had concerns and felt there were limitations. "The reports I’d get back from the medical people weren’t as positive as I was about it," Zimmer said. "That’s kind of how it came down is that his knee wasn’t as…he still has some recovery to do. When I watched him in practice he moved well, I didn’t see limitations but from what I told was there was some."
Well, if he put Teddy out there when not physically ready, that would be 2 times in one season, and even if it was done out of love for the guy, it's inexcusable. He nearly got Sam killed in Chicago, and could have cost us a game. Frankly, this is one of my issues with Zimmer. He was so bent on not having Case lead that offense, he was willing to take a major risk with Sam's health and the team's standing to prove his point.
I'm willing to bet that Zimmerman made the call to take Teddy off the PUP list to try to save his career with the team. Sugarman took Zim aside and told him you can dress Teddy, but you really shouldn't play him, and he did it anyway after what he thought he saw in practice. Afterwards, I bet Sugarman laid it out for him under no uncertain terms that he could have really messed that up in a huge way.

This is complete conjecture on your part. You've created your own narrative here.
This isn't the first time I've seen you call him 'Zimmerman'. What's up?
@"greediron" said:That's good. But did you see any public message from Bridgewater, something like, "Thanks to all you Vikings fans for all the cheers and cards to my hospital etc"? Like what Cousins sent to Redskins fans?@"Jor-El" said:Where did you hear this. Zimmer said Teddy texted him and he replied wishing him well.@"Neptizzle" said: I will forever wish the best for teddy (except against the vikes). this kid deserved better (not a blown up knee). Something just doesn't add up - a nonplant leg blowing up in noncontact drills? him not even saying goodbye to the team that drafted him and helped him recover? hmmm... anyway. GUMP had something special about him, its just to bad it had to turn out this way. Good point about Bridgewater not sending any kind of farewell message to the Vikings team and fans. Very clear he left in a bad mood, probably because the Vikings were being honest about his future.

It was late. Zimmerman always seems to roll off the fingers. Too many years of that other great Viking on the brain. Sorry. As for conjecture; of course it is, but give me a better explanation of how Teddy gets inserted in a game and mysteriously gets put on inactive shortly thereafter, especially in light of this new information that "Zimmer" just dropped.What wasn't conjecture was how he handled the Sam situation. That half in Chicago bordered on negligence.
Here I figured Zimmerman as in Bobby Dylan...
Anyways, I think Zimmer really wanted to get Teddy some live action and see where he was at. Rushing it? In retrospect probably so...
Bradford in Chicago? Reeks of some desperation and was Freeman'esque for this fan.
Sometimes decisions are made that make you go WTF (in my best Tom Cruise imitation).

You're making assumptions. The medical staff may have cleared him, in fact I'm sure they did. But maybe there was a small setback, a tweak. We don't know but I can make assumptions along those lines also.The guy's name is Mike Zimmer....not even Mike 'Zimmer'. When I see someone put Zimmerman on it, which probably was the name originally at some point in his family's history (which you know, German-Jewish), and then keeps referencing it in a smartass way, it smacks a little anti-semetic. Want to give you the benefit of the doubt....but you aren't making it easy.

Holy Shit man. Now who's making assumptions, and full of conjecture? You just hit the grand slam. That's got to be the biggest reach for bullshit I've read on this board. and there have been some doozies over the years. your dog picture kinda looks like a Pomeranian. German origin if I'm not mistaken, big personality, big allegiance among their owners. hmmm... Yeah, I guess it would stand to reason that you must be a Nazi. Dumbass...

Yep, for sure I could be reaching admittedly. Like I said, wanting to give you the benefit of the doubt. I stopped short of outright accusing. Still a bit odd to me, nonetheless. But I'll let it go.And yep, the pic is a Pomeranian. Its what is called a 'Throwback' Pom.....much bigger than a traditional and closer to the breed's origins of the Spitz.
I've typed Zimmerman before by accident. Both names are German. The word "zimmer" means "room." Zimmerman means, literally, "room man." Or man who makes rooms. A carpenter.
It's clear to me that soemthing happened between Teddy playing and this news. teddy was radio silent for several weeks just after tghe new year. I wonder if he agrivated the knee during rehab or practice on his own and has since had to take it easy? Regardless, he looks to onde day be fully healed. Someone will give him a chance one day and there will be a story. he is just too special of a person to not get another chance. If he was a perinneal starter it would be great for the league. Time will tell.

knock it off. I agreed it was a bit of a stretch, but he was explaining why he was being sensitive to the mis-spelling and not actually labeling you.as far as you fictional narrative, its your opinion and entitled to it.
lets keep the name calling out of here though.

Gee thanks for letting it go, as if you're doing me a favor.You seem to think that the insinuation is appropriately benign. Anyone who so easily goes the anti-semitic route without knowing my background, or showing the ability to even spell anti-semitic correctly, is desperately pathetic in reasonable conversation. Have fun with your dog.

he explained himself. its up to you to decide if you believe him or not.

I was thinking it was a not so subtle smear against folk music & those of Hibbing descent

Fuck you, dude. You're overreacting. I don't give two shits if you like my insinuation or not. Nothing insane about it. I've seen the EXACT same deal with the name before. My wife is Jewish....I knew nothing about it the religion or culture before her. But I know plenty since, as the prejudice is rampant throughout society. I travel for business and have for 25 years and have been exposed to it constantly. Didn't think about it before I really became aware.What's insane is your use of the last name Zimmerman. Seen plenty of racists call out Jewish surnames as not real, just like many nationalities did to acclimate to the U.S. when coming to this country for a better life. If you meant nothing by it, fine.....then its all good. But if I'm being honest, I still don't buy it. So fuck you. I don't care if I'm banned, reprimanded or whatever.
