We need to win it all this year with Brees, then go with Bridgewater for the future.

Absolutely not! First of all, and most importantly, Brees has stated multiple times that he has no wish to retire as long as he still enjoys the game and if you looked at his eyes while being forced to watch from the sidelines he isn't anywhere close to that date. He also said winning another Lombardi wouldn't factor into any retirement decision.

Secondly, while Teddy has done a good job of filling in in the interim, he still can't hold Brees' jockstrap. I doubt we can keep him as Brees' backup and hope he finds a starting job elsewhere.
