Teddy Bridgewater Down - might be serious

[Fountain City Blues]

The Bears will be a factor in the North.

I know they were missing a couple guys last week, but holy crap they looked like a deer in headlights on both sides of the ball for the most part in what was supposedly a dress rehearsal. Were 2/3 in RZ defense or that score could have been uglier than it was. I don't think Chris Jones is the 2nd coming of JJ Watt exactly.

Fox has a year under his belt there and he's a lot better than the coach they had there before. It wouldn't surprise me at all if they are the 2nd best team in the North. Especially, now with Bridgewater getting hurt.

And Detroit is......well, Detroit.

I'm not counting the Vikings out yet. I still think they will be #2. Fox IS the best coach the Bears have had in a while but I think he needs another year or two with the roster he has. 9 and 7 for Da Bears this year.

Detroit usually sucks but they may do better than most folks think

Heard compound fracture as well. That means a bone was sticking out

I tore my acle, mcl, and pcl when my knee bent the wrong way. I did not feel a thing, heard the snap, tried to stand and then puked.

If it's a dislocation only then he'll be back later in the year

i dislocation comes with tons of tears. That i what I did. It is what Livingston did as well. He might not ever recover. I haven't.

Dislocation with a complete tear of the ACL, and potential other damage.

This is what I did, I landed on someones foot going fora ball out of bounds. But if this is what happened to Bridgewater he is out for years. It is also what happened to Lattimore in college

If it's that severe then he won't come back. IR

Boy, I hope we're not looking back in a couple years saying "what could've been" about Teddy.

Vikings athletic trainer Eric Sugarman announced Teddy Bridgewater has a dislocated knee and a complete tear of his ACL. "Teddy Bridgewater suffered a non-contact injury today at practice," Sugarman said in a statement. "The injury was quickly identified as a dislocated knee. The injury was stabilized, and he was transported to a nearby hospital for treatment and evaluation. After undergoing an MRI, it was determined that Teddy suffered a complete tear to his ACL and other structural damage. Fortunately, there appears to be no nerve or arterial damage. Surgical repair will be scheduled within the next few days. Although the recovery time will be significant, we expect Teddy to make a full recovery. I would like to thank all of the medical professionals and our athletic training staff for all of their help today. Teddy has already displayed the attitude needed to overcome this injury and attack his rehab."

I wish Teddy a swift and complete recovery. I hope he can play football again but mostly that he recovers well enough to walk and lead a normal life without limping everywhere he goes.

God speed Teddy

I feel bad for this kid... I really do. It's a shame that it happened in a non-contact portion of practice, too. YIKES

Chin up Vikings fan.

Your man is 23. That is better than 36.
