Other than his first 2 years in Minn, how many seasons has he started? He may turn out to be better than many anticipate. If so, great! If not, we will be in line to get one of the top 3 next year. 

And will have spent 42M on a player that put you top 5 in the draft, and hopefully can coach a young QB to do better than he did.. That should work out well when they’re trying to build a team.

He tore an ACL which is why he missed two years. Every year he has been a starter he has been between good and great.

Panthers QB Teddy Bridgewater says he's leaning toward kneeling during the National Anthem this season. A former Vikings quarterback, Bridgewater says he was able to get in contact with George Floyd's family and in his words "do some things for them.'' Says his heart goes out to the family.

Teddy Bridgewater said he's "honored to be following in the position'' Cam Newton left behind at Carolina. He understand what it's like to have to prove himself again as Newton is doing now at New England because he had to do that after his horrific injury in Minnesota.

If Teddy can provide some fun times, deliver us Fields/Lawrence/Lance in the process, and then help their transition to learning Brady's offense it's a win.  Frankly, that's the best case scenario and a realistic one that fans can talk themselves into.  A LOT more mental gymnastics would need to take place for fans to convince themselves that Teddy is a long term solution here. 

He's here to help our young guys learn Brady's offense while we find his successor.  It's honestly the big argument too against bringing back Cam. Teddy is in a better position to teach this offense instead of win right now.  The multi-year plan we're in screams for teaching and patience, not our best chance to win.  Plans can obviously change, but unless Teddy walks in and starts 16 games, plays at a Pro Bowl level, etc., then the plan isn't changing and he's not a part of it beyond 2021.  

At this point, this is all I want. I’m ready to get either Lawrence and Fields in here, as I am not going to be sold on Teddy. Now, if he comes in and lights it up, feelings change, but in my eyes, he’s nothing but a stop gap. I, like many others in here, are willing to admit this, while others feel the same way, yet want to be pretty about it.
