I agree he was the most frustrating but I don't think it was because he was so "bad" per se, but because it's easy to see how if he just had a bit of guts how much better he could be. He could easily be a Goff/Cousins level QB if he just didn't play terrified. I honestly don't think those guys are a bit more talented than he is and I have to admit that his actual arm strength was better than I expected. Still below average for an NFL QB but not the total liability level I fully expected. His utter conservativeness is a far bigger liability than his physical throwing ability. 

Teddy Bridgewater's game is so conservative it makes Ronald Regan look like Bernie Sanders

Saying he was "just so bad," was admittedly cheap on words, but the reasons you offer are what I was referring to with "bad," I just have expounded on it so much I am tired of talking about it lol.  But yeah, I agree for the most part...  I will say that despite watching him since college, his arm strength actually appeared worse than what I remembered it being prior to the injury.  That being said, I agree that his biggest issue is his disposition despite his physical limitations, and that's what makes it so hard to digest watching it live.

I said it before, I wouldn’t call him the worst QB we’ve ever had but he’s my least favorite. Watching him aggravated me more than any other player ever.

Bridgewater was more frustrating to watch than Byron Bell playing LT and Haruki Nakamura playing S combined.  Worse than 2009 Jake.  Worse than Lagadu Naane.

I’m swinging for the fences here:

he was more frustrating to watch than Ron Rivera’s coaching.

They need to change the definition of deep ball. It should be passed over 40 yards.

[Fox007]

Whenever we want to do a deep pass with TB as our QB we should just bring out the punter and have him kick it to the WR. Be about the same.

Too far.

Or at least not count plays where the pass goes 5 yards and DJ Moore takes it 50.

His risk aversion was so perplexing. Even in end of game/game winning scenarios he was still avoiding risks at all costs. I don't remember him ever playing this way at Louisville.

I do also want to point out how ironic it is that the guy I compared Joe Burrow so much to(Andy Dalton), they are right next to each other in the bottom of the rankings.

TBD if this holds up but I did warn people that the only real elite attributes he had were intangibles. His physical skills were not exceptional.

For the Mac Jones stans......take note.

Teddy Bridgewater was definitely not balls deep in deep balls

I've been trying to point this out for a while.  If TB5 was not your guy, Mac Jones is not your guy either.
