The Carolina game was actually one of our toughest now that you mention it. We won 33-31. Teddy threw for 310 and 2 TDs. He has the blue print Elway's been looking for to lose close games to us instead of getting blown out.

Getting Teddy for a 6th is not a bad trade. Looks like they're having trouble trying to trade up so now they wait and hope one of the top 5 QBs fall to them. At least they have Teddy as a backup plan - But I refuse to believe that he is their ultimate goal. Even horseface can't be that brain damaged.

Like many ... once the Panthers acquired Darnold, I figured Denver would make a play for Teddy given our new GM. I can't imagine there are many thinking that this move solves their long-term problems.

Teddy Bridgewater isn't Alex Smith and it's not even close. Alex Smith in his first year in KC, threw 23 TD's and 7 INT's. In his one year as the bridge for Mahomes, he threw 26 TD's to only 5 TD's. Outside of last year in New Orleans, Bridgewater just barely clears a ONE to ONE TD to INT ratio for his career as a starter. Bridgewater threw as many INT's last year as the stopgap in Carolina as Alex Smith in 2013 and 2018 COMBINED. |

Nah, it's just some solid depth at a low cost. The fact that Teddy was a starter last year and is a "name", combined with the ongoing struggles Denver has had at the position just gets everybody all hot and bothered.

It's a good move for a rebuilding team. It's obviously not a SB contender move. It's not akin to the Rams trading for Stafford. |

Is Bridgewater better than Mahomes? Asking for a Broncos fan.

I wouldn't at all be surprised to see Bridgewater as the backup rather than the starter. Lock starts and Bridgewater comes in when he falters. Again. |

Teddy is also much better. Not sure that’s arguable. Teddy was 5th completion %, has just under 4K yards and 5 rushing TD’s. Lock was a turnover machine and 35th in completion %. He’s wildly inconsistent and Teddy is competent |

The good thing is that even if Lock sucks and they start Teddy.....he’ll be just good enough to make sure they don’t draft high enough to ever get a good QB.
