To be fair, he hasn't played much so it will take time.

I’m sure being down to thier 4th string LT didn’t help much... !st & 2nd string inactive, 3rd string got hurt early...

but Teddy should be used to that right!  ;)

Gottlieb nailed it.   He's a nice kid, his likeability has people wishing he'd be better than he is, but what he really is is a less mobile Case Keenum.

Teddy was playing against Carolina's 3rd string QB. He was active as the backup all year. You can love Teddy all you'd like but he's average at best. That's his ceiling. The Twitterverse was all set to crown Bridgewater with this game but reality came into play.

The 3rd string QB for Carolina had even less time to play and his QB rating was 111.3. Teddy's was 73.7.

Time to stop with the excuses for Teddy.

Stop the excuses?  Who started a thread about a backup QB for the Saints?  If you throw shit at a fan, you are gonna catch some splatter.

? Where's the shit throwing? I started this whole thread with an opinion by a national radio/TV broadcaster that I agree with. Its called an opinion. Dude, you are so overly sensitive. And where is the splatter?? Vikergirl was extremely civil. You're the only one having a hissy.

No excuses. You know how long he hasn't played so it's a factor. You started this thing for whatever reason so there are going to be varying views. I wish Teddy all the best.

Just saying, you throw shit against a fan, expect to get some shit on yourself.
I didn't throw a hissy, that would be projection on your part.  Some people love to tear others down.  A thread about Teddy's poor day as a backup after our 84 million dollar QB shit the bed the second half of the season is pretty much your MO.

And if he played well, are you telling me there wouldn't be posts here today saying so?? Please. And go find me a thread where I say anything negative about Teddy. So you are admitting he played poorly then, lol?

After the way our overpaid QB ended the season, yeah, there would be many posts lamenting letting TB go.  I didn't watch the game, nor do I go looking for hot takes from twitter about our former players and post them on a vikings board.  So I don't know how he played.

You know, this thread symbolizes the hypocrisy of the pompous "I'm a better Viking fan than YOU are" crowd.

Please go back and READ the OP. There is NOTHING, and I mean NOTHING that was throwing "shit" at anybody. It was merely a (at this point in time, at least) a factual statement that the legend of Bridgewater is far greater than the actual resume of Bridgewater. He was just on the roster last year (and collecting paychecks for 2 years while doing squat for the team, I might add). I don't find it an unreasonable topic. There have been MANY posts here about former Vikings and their status. And TB is OBVIOUSLY still a "legend" to many on this board, so why is there the need to give a hard time to Sticky, or even defend TB? He IS, as pointed out, the back-up QB for the Saints. Why root for him? He might very well join the ever-growing list of ex-players/coaches who leave and end up with Super Bowl rings. I'm wrong not to WISH for that?!!

 Why the animosity to Sticky? I should point out that he and I have had our differences, but I've always respected his ability to disagree without making personal attacks, or getting just plain nasty. I realize he doesn't need, nor maybe even want, my support, but it gets tiresome when the Viking Fan Police Squad attacks anyone who offers criticism, or WORSE, posts actual facts/statistics to explain/support their OPINION.

I just experienced similar in another thread....made a comment that an "effort" to fix the OL was not sufficient, it needed to be an actual FIX. The result? Typical pompous/righteous Viking fan response : "why don't you support another team", and my Favorite,  "your an asshole" (that was verbatim, even though it should be "you're an asshole", but what can you expect from a FSU fan/alum, right?).

It is VERY apparent that, as long as you have blind allegiance and goosestep to whatever tune is emanating from Egan, you can pretty much say and do whatever the hell you want on this board. 

But if you have the audacity to be critical of the abysmal playoff performances of this team the last 2 decades or make any comment/post that could somehow be taken as a slight to a "board favorite"? Wow, public enemy number one. Personally attacking another poster seems to be encouraged, based on the mob mentality that is prevalent here. 

Sticky, I know it doesn't mean much, but I agree 100% with your OPINION of the Bridgewater phenomenon as well as your response to the VFPS weenies that got their purple panties in a bunch and gave you shit.

Happy New Year, all!

P.S. I'm looking forward to the typical bullshit coming from Schpielman this offseason, and reading/listening to the lemmings lapping it up! It will be entertaining!

Teddy has moved on, like many players have.  As for me, he's not even a factor anymore.  Yes his knee injury was devastating, but things like that do happen.  He was no longer an asset to the Vikings no longer and changes had to be made.  I wish him well and successful, but I concentrate more on the remaining players and the ones coming in rather than the ones that had left.

Appreciate it.

And I've never been anything but a fan of the man that is Bridgewater. I've said as much always. But the player is definitely overrated, don't know how this can be denied. The interesting part is the same poster that gets on me about starting a thread like this is the same one that tells posters to ignore threads they don't like? Might be time to take some of their own advice?

This board has continued to deteriorate all year. We are losing people faster than we are attracting new members and I think a lot of it is how people are treated. We can't seem to have civil disagreements without them getting personal.
