Teddy Bridgewater Down - might be serious

[cdumler7]

And sounds like it has already been confirmed that Bridgewater has at least a torn ACL and will miss the season.

Like after the Packers, Lions and Bears?

I am not too sold on the other teams taking advantage. Making the playoffs is a huge difference from not making it at all. Going from the favorite in the division and arguably the whole NFC to still that doesn't move the needle for me. Lions if they ever had their head pulled out of their rearends could capitalize I suppose.

Awww man.

Rap reporting it too

Crazy how fast they announced that. Usually like to give it 24 hours to run as many tests as possible before coming to any serious conclusions but must have been able to tell just by the touch that it was torn. So definitely no partial tear or maybe he can heal with time without surgery kind of injury.

He was also a bit on the smaller/skinny side for the position. Still that didn't stop the Rams from taking their guy this year which was a major issue some teams had with him. And we have seen so far in a couple of the preseason games where Goff has come up a bit slow after a big hit. Maybe the kid needs a year just to go live in the gym and add a bit of muscle to help protect his body.

I remember that too. Seemed liked the narrative was he was a sinewy QB with a mediocre arm.

Yeah, scouts have coded ways of saying "this guy might be brittle," but if the team wants you, they'll take you.

Manziel was rated higher in that draft despite all the interpersonal issues, and Cleveland went ahead and drafted him.

Well, shit.

Sorry Vikings fans.

Teams that would most benefit from a the Vikes imploding:

1. Bucs
2. 2nd place NFCE team
3. Rams

the team that would benefit the most would be the Pack. TB going down would make reclaiming the division a little easier

Probably out of the running for a logo, eh?

Hate to seem insensitive, but how responsible was Teddy Bridgewater for the Vikings being a playoff team last season?

In today's NFL with just how big and fast guys are on defense those smaller QB's just seem to break down a bit quicker. Only real way they learn how to survive is if they take the Russell Wilson way of learning the art of missing the big hit. He takes a lot of hits but you just don't see him take the bone crushing hit very often.

Now this right here with the torn ACL on a non-contact drill that is just probably bad luck. Sometimes you just twist a knee wrong and boom it is gone. Just happens sometimes and it is very unfortunate.

You see Cereal Bullshitting my post?


Bastard!, He will never post here again without a steaming pile of poo next to it!

 

[Clayton]

Do we really see the Lions or Bears as true competitors this year though?

No, but if you go and google their schedule then you might get really jealous

Bwah...good catch. "Ian RAIP-o-port"

Whoops. Mine might be too. The writer has already deleted it so I'm guessing he figured out his information was not real.

I just heard this too. Also a potential meniscus tear as well.

But I heard the same assessment on my local sports talk show and they got the info from either the Vikings or the NFL.
