NFLNew Orleans Saints expected to re-sign Teddy Bridgewater

Don't but into the apologist reasons for Bridgewater as the Carolina Rookie QB outplayed him and was not surrounded with talent either; McCaffrey was pulled early - Bridgewater still had Mike Thomas...

Plus, Bridgewater's only NFL success came as a play-action QB with a bell-cow RB in a younger, peaked Adrian Peterson; and then there's his inability to stay healthy...

Without Brees, we're not winning a Superbowl, but a backup QB to spell Brees a game, maybe two is necessary, but doesn't have to be as expensive as Bridgewater either, allowing money for other positions...

Credit coach Payton for the Chopper style start in week 16, subsequent crash and burn. Now Saints can keep him on the cheap for development.

Sean has been paying attention to the Pats and Belichick.

Genius

"Inability to stay healthy?" Dude, he got his knee blasted and destroyed. He came back. That's the only real injury he's ever had. And he hasn't had anything since. You make it sound like he's constantly injured.

I think TB is better than a lot of other backups. And he can still be coached up more. He hasn't hit his ceiling yet.

As long as we dont over pay for him, I like it. The only thing better would be T. Hill. He's an animal and is a blast to watch. But he still needs refinement.
