The Bridgewater Experiment... your thoughts

[t96]

Has he even shown flashes? I don’t really think so. His biggest strength coming into this season was supposed to be game management and ball protection. That wound up being one of his biggest weaknesses. He’s just not a good QB in any way, shape or form at this point. Great dude and would be a solid mentor to a rookie QB, but nothing about his play on the field this season was a positive.

Started out showing promise.

 

Regressed as the season went on.

 

Not the answer.

Hated from day one. Hope it’s over.

It was a complete failure and we should never have signed him. Thank God Hurney is gone and pray we do better and that Rhule & Co have learned from this mistake.

All of this happened before he played here.

If we were going to suffer I would have rather suffered with Cam

This part. Probably would have maintained a lot of good will for everyone.

Showed promise when the season started then I dont know what the fug happened. I have never seen a QB regress that quickly. I thought maybe it was lack of time to get with his new coach and WRs but his confidence was so eroded it was like watching the captain of the science club asking the cheerleaders captain to prom. I dont think he can recover at this point.

He is who we thought he was before the season began despite what this coaching staff and others on this board tried to force upon us.

Time to move on from the Teddy Experiment. Just another strike out for Marty Hurney.

Now that year one of having Teddy at QB is in the books what are your thoughts on his future in Charlotte? While he has shown flashes he has also shown multiple reasons why the organization could be taking a QB in 2021.

Do we give him a pass due to CMC being out, for  Brady being in his first year as an actual play-caller, for the lack of a legit TE and a questionable o-line?

 

Not giving him a pass.

I feel like I was pretty fair minded towards Teddy. I was neither completely sold on him going into the season nor completely against him. I was willing to see what he could do here. I am now firmly of the opinion he should not be our long term starter.  He throws too many checkdowns that don't give the play a chance to succeed and he throws too many interceptions for a qb who rarely takes chances. I think with the weapons around him he should have produced more wins. His late game performance screams career backup.

I really hope we can draft a young qb without giving away the farm because I feel like if the Oline gets fixed this could be an extremely potent offense with the right QB at the helm. I just don't think that QB is on the team yet.

Teddy is not the guy to get us to where we want to be. Both Rhule and Tepper have made comments in recent weeks leading me to believe they see this too.

That could have been to light a fire in bridgewater to burn off all that nyquil he drinks pregame.

How does anyone recount a season of below average performance and, in the same sentence, tell us he should be a mentor. There's no way anyone can allow a below average performer serve as a role model, set an example and teach. If you do, expect nothing more than below average performance from the next guy.

I understand that a lot of fans are emotional rn, especially with a disappointing finish, but performance skill != teaching skill.
