    he clearly has outplayed mettenberger, teddy got off to a slow start because he was getting used to his terrible o-line, he is know getting ball out quicker.. espn stats and info shows that teddy bridgewater gets the ball out of his hands at a speed similar to that of aaron rodgers


    http://espn.go.com/blog/minnesota-v...-will-give-teddy-bridgewater-plenty-to-handle

    Through his first four starts as an NFL quarterback, Teddy Bridgewater has been blitzed on 29.9 percent of his dropbacks, which actually is a relatively small percentage when compared to the experiences of other recent rookie quarterbacks. Of the 53 quarterbacks who have made their first four career starts since 2008, 42 of them were blitzed more frequently than Bridgewater has been so far, according to ESPN Stats & Information

    Yea, he's doing his thing & I am damn proud.

    Let's hope Minnesota gets him some adequate weapons and fixes that oline.

    Can't wait to see him shred the Texans. Gonna be funny. Get that popcorn ready, JJ!

    imagine winning games with the talent he has on offense right now, playing with 2 backup starters on the offensive line, and a bust in matt kalil.. im anxious to see what happens his second go round going up againist the lions defense, teddy has adjusted and has been getting the ball out super fast which is leading to way less sacks

    hoping another team beats your team, and looking forward to it no less, does not make you a fan "through and through". It basically makes you a poser.

    He's playing pretty well right now, buts it's way too early to make much of a judgement as to whether the Texans should've drafted him (or should've traded up/down for him). Having said that, a true fan of a team doesn't make a comment about looking forward to a player on another team shredding their favorite team. It makes you look just as bad as those in this thread who seem to have an irrational interest in seeing him fail for whatever reason.

    The Bridgewater fans were always the NFL version of Lin fans, it's incredibly pathetic, but what can you do? Shaming them won't help, ignoring them is pretty much the only option and just hope they go away eventually. Most Lin fans did.

    He may never be a really good QB.

    But one thing's for sure, he's not the bust some predicted.

    Actually it doesn't.

    So many people have slandered teddy for various reasons while refusing to watch the tape.

    I do not play well with ignorance.

    Therefore, the only way these FOOLS can see the way is for Teddy to punch them in the damn face. I mean, we're talking about the Texans. An organization that went out of its way to not draft a franchise caliber QB in Teddy Bridgewater. On top of it, these Texans fans, who are clueless.. Come in here just to slander Teddy. How pathetic is that?

    I love the Texans, and have watched almost every game live since their inception. BUT, I call the organization out when they do stupid things. Not drafting Teddy is one of those "stupid things", and I want them to pay the price. Call me a "poser" for it, but I want change in this franchise. Real freaking change.

    Please do this. And stop telling people how you're ignoring everyone's stupid takes - just actually ignore them.

    If you do those two things you've said you would do, we never have to hear from you again in regards to the NFL and everyone will be much happier. You can ignore all of us idiots, and we never have to see your posts. Win-win.

    First, yes it does, regardless of you try to rationalize your irrational thoughts.

    Second, I actually liked TB so don't try to turn this around into something it isn't, i.e. some kind of TB witch hunt. Again, you're completely being irrational by making this into something it isn't. Don't project arguments you have with other people over a player onto me.

    Third, I want change too. But, once again, you irrationally think that TB destroying the texans will do anything to help that. It won't.

    There seems to be an interesting trend you're. You're irrational and make no sense.

    Like I said though, I'm not going anywhere, I'll still throw out my opinion, and I'll talk with those who have good or at least well thought out takes. If someone starts to put their pants on their head and go full r****d, I'll stop. Win-win.
