Teddy Bridgewater hanging it up after this season (1 Viewer)

Always think of his Supa Strut when I think of Teddy.

 
Hey, Payton made him alot of money. He did get a medium sized QB contract when he went to Carolina. Good dude, thanks for the memories.
 
I'll have to stop you there. He was able to run Broken Brees' offense without any modifications, which would have led to a seamless transition if Drew chose to leave after 2019 and I believe he could have kept that going for a long time.
Drew not leaving killed that but Payton's system remained his system; just different for the QB it is built for.

I hate Teddy B couldn't stay but I understand the 60 million reasons he didn't.
I don't know why you needed to "stop me right there" and then proceed to prove my point about Teddy B. Unless you think it's a clever retort about me saying the same thing to you're ridiculous post calling Payton Manning and Tom Brady system QBs.

If you think I said the same thing as you, then the point was lost.
You said that he was able to run "Payton's system" without any modification and that's false. He was able to run the "late in career" Brees offense when he filled in for Drew. "Payton's system" is always based and built around QB1. That's all.

The offense that was ran from 2006-2015 is not the same offense that was ran from 2017-2020. The offense that was ran from 2017-2020 was not the same offense that was ran in 2021 (play calling tells us that the offense Payton was building around Jameis was closer to that of Prime Brees; run game, play action, and intermediate passing tells the story). And I don't know what Sneaky Pete put out there last season.

And you being so stuck on the system QB thing shows that you miss the context in my use of the term. Others are seeming to get it but it can be discussed over there..lol)

I think your biggest issue is reading comprehension, because I never said "without any modifications". What I said was "More than any QB we've had other that Brees, he was able to run Payton's system without a lot of modifications."

And I am not stuck on the System QB thing. It's just happens that you said the most ridiculous thing I've heard in forever. It doesn't matter what mental gymnastics you want people to go through, it's just an insane notion.

I am not going to railroad this thread about one of my favorite QBs but you are still wrong. He was able to run Drew's offense because Payton's offense is always catered to QB1. When Winston became starter, he began to build the offense for and around him. If anything, Drew did more to modify a Payton offense than anyone, considering Sean Payton had a West Coast background and he build a Coryell system for Drew. Part of the reason he brought in Sneaky Pete.

But anyway...

I've been a huge fan of Teddy since I happened to catch the Belk Bowl his freshmen season. I was like "they lost but that dude got something." Always been one of my favorite and hated he ended up with Norv Turner because that wasn't a good fit for his skillset. I still remember that crazy play in college where he was blitzed, moves around to miss tackles, launched it off 1 foot sideways perfectly to back pylon....🥲

I'm surprised to see him retire now; he could probably play several more seasons as a backup and make good money doing it. Evidently, he doesn't want to.
