SteelKing728 Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 There was talk that he'd never play again. That his career was over in a matter of seconds. What he's doing is extremely rare for any player in any sport. He likely won't play this week or next. Probably after the bye. How will this impact the Vikings? What QB do they go with?

RandomCampBody Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 I don't think they will play him this year, he hasn't played a game in nearly 2 years so he is going to need time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cddolphin Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 Depends on what the news is with Bradford who is dealing with his own knee issue. Really depends on how quickly / if Bridgewater can shake off the rust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mossburg Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 What QB do they go with? Only certainty is Bradford if he's healthy. Other than that, roll with Case if he keeps playing well, otherwise give B-Dub a go. Really don't care who plays at all. Just go with healthiest guy who is playing his best.

He will need time for sure. It will be hard to justify pulling Keenum if he keeps playing well enough to win games. Bradford is done. I wouldn't be shocked if MN puts him on IR to make room for Teddy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gnat Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 I think we'll see Bridgewater get some snaps this year, even if in garbage time. Right now we're assuming (and nothing seems to suggest this won't be the case), that Keanum starts the rest of the season (or until he falters) and Bridgewater would take over because Bradford doesn't seem like he'll be healthy again this season.

Forge Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 Great news. Felt so bad for that kid when that happened. Hopefully he can keep it going and come back fully and this isn't a Lattimore situation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soko Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 Great news. I’ve always been a big Bridgewater fan and I hope he gets his shot. It’d benefit him a lot in 2018 both contractually and physically if he can knock some rust off before hitting free agency. Unfortunately, I only really see this happening if Bradford stays hurt and Keenum starts to blow winnable games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBURGE Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 This is great news for the Vikes. If he can come back this year the Vikes should be able to take the division Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TecmoSuperJoe Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 I'm anxious to see him back in the saddle. Really sucked when he went down. By the way, I know it's been a couple of years but when he was starting in 2014 and 2015 he took a lot of sacks. 83 times in 29 games. I've heard that Bridgewater might not be an ideal fit for the offense that Pat Shurmur has there, but I don't know. Maybe Teddy has a habit of holding on to the ball too long as well. Whatever the case, that's a lot of damage to take in you first couple of seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teddy is actually a much better fit for Shurmurs offense, I think sacks will go down and Shurmur will do things to get Teddy in space. Turner never adjusted for Teddys style.

That is what I'm hoping is the case. Keenum has only taken four sacks this year in four starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
