Man we traded him for a 6th round pick and still had to eat over half his salary. That tells you how the NFL values him. Teddy is ok, but not capable of putting a team on his shoulders when they need him. He is a solid backup/below average starter. Now everything I hear about him states he is a great locker room guy and team first player. I wouldn’t be against having someone like him as our backup under the right salary.

What a laughable joke that statement is!

Huddle over/under for Panthers going into 2020 season was 2-14...

I think the point was excluding last year and it some what exposed him. He wasn’t his “winning” self with a below average roster...

It's funny how the last offensive coordinator to go to the playoff with Minnesota managed to get Teddy Bridgewater to come to Denver. You'll never understand, because you've been brow beaten by this Huddle crowd hopped up on hopium. You'll never understand because you believe that every team that Teddy has played for was magically good while he was there and tragically worse since he left. That's because you don't know what a good team looks like. If you did, you wouldn't be so happy with the backwards trajectory of your team.

Since I no longer have a dog in this fight, I'm going to sit to the side and watch you howl at the moon while wallowing in the suck that is the Carolina Panthers.  

Pat Shurmur went to bat for him eh? The guy with the .292 career winning percentage as a head coach and whose offenses have finished in the bottom half of the league just as often as the top half, Jeff Fisher-style?

All the best in Denver, Teddy. May he ascend to new career heights in the Mile High City.

That's the dumb move that will become all too apparent by the end of the 21-22 season. There's no upside to paying Teddy to produce with Denver while languishing in the basement with Sam. There's not enough mayo on the planet for the poo sandwich that you guys are taking seconds on. Folks here tell themselves that the reason Teddy's success with the Vikings and the Saints didn't work here was because the Saints and the Vikings were better teams. So the answer here is to get rid of the quarterback who works well with good teams, and acquire a quarterback who wrecks good teams. That's Carolina Panther gold right there.

Try to keep up. Teddy Bridgewater is a coach maker. Norv Turner landed on his feet after working with him. Sean Payton had coach of the year rumors circling the Saints after Teddy subbed for Brees. Now he's handing a former coach a career lifeline. A gift horse that the Panther rookie coach looked in the mouth and to his demise carelessly let get away.

Yup, they're so excited about it that the third year of the contract had to be renegotiated away to avoid any 2022 financial commitment and Carolina had to eat so much of the salary that Denver is only paying $3MM, barely more than Blaine Gabbert just re-signed for in Tampa, with another $1.25MM in potential bonus.

Nothing else to be said, as that tells the entire story. Good luck in Denver, both to you and Teddy.
