I am suggesting that if that big if of performance manifest then what. Do you bench him if he is performing at a high level.

Why bench someone that is winning convincingly. I don't understand why anyone would to include Payton.

If TB is playing well I would go with the hot hand until the playoffs; then I would go with Brees and his experience.

Jesus no.

This is laughable and beyond belief anyone is entertaining this.

Kamara over AP was also laughable until it was not. People on here really BELIEVED AP was going to kill it. Kamara was a joke to them.

If Teddy wins out with a handful of Watson bomb throws along the way then what. It is a serious question and I stand by it.

Re: Serious Question on Bridgewater

Our offensive success was based on two play calls.
1. Don’t get stupid holding or false start penalties
2. Get the ball to Kamara

Thank god for number 2.

Re: Serious Question on Bridgewater

After watching the last game what would make you think he has the ability to lead any team to a win? If it wasn’t for the defense and ST we would have lost. Did you see how frustrated MT was on the missed td? TB was so slow going through his progressions he missed an open MT.

Re: Serious Question on Bridgewater

This is a progression event. More snaps, practice he gets better. He is a pro bowl QB for a reason. If he gets the time with the starters he will progress. If he hits on some air strikes, has smooth short passes and wins then what.

It is a legit question. If he wins out do you bench him with a snap of a finger. I do not think so. If you do then you are going off of historical data that has produced one SB win in 10 years. I would keep him in with a gradual Brees insert.

I agree with the underlined portion and I understand what you are getting at Beast.

Teddy hadn't played in a meaningful game since 2015 and he did exactly what Sean/Carmichael called on Sunday. In order to be successful at this level, others (O line, WR, RB, TE ... Cook I'm talking to you) must do their job. Football is the ultimate team sport and all 11 guys have to put in work.

"Fans" that still knock Teddy will see only what they wish to see on every play. IMO he has a long way to go but at least he took a step in the right direction vs Sunday and helped us get out of Seattle with a W. SP designed a game plan around TB and executed to perfection.

Time to build on his first win and carry over that momentum against Dallas.

Drew is going to come back and threads like this will be a faint, forgotten dream.

Re: Serious Question on Bridgewater

Did you see the first half? Didn’t complete a pass to a wide receiver till right at 2 minute warning. Oh he was executing a gameplan made for his skills too.I did not get to watch the 2nd half but 177 yards all game and you ask will he be replaced by Drew if he keeps winning? Roflol! I’m not the coach, but if I were he would not have even played the 2nd half. Tell me that Taysom doesn’t bring more spark to the team than Teddy - and I’ll ask if you think everyone should get a trophy- winners and losers.
