The 9 month off season will be unbearable
I looked at it with an open mind and I agree. Teddy made our defense look just as inept as the starting QBs did, and the money we'd save could buy us some of the free agents we were clamoring for.
BOOM!!!I find it amusing that some here consider Dak and Teddy as "essentially the same QB" but for some reason they believe you can get the "same QB" in the NFL at a much different rate.
Looking at sportrac, they estimate the value of players based off their actual production.
Teddy is "worth" $20 million a year:

Dak is "worth" $33 million a year:

So giving Teddy $25 million a year, or 120% above his market value, that would be like paying Dak $41+ million a year.
I am not going to OVERPAY for LESS.
That just simple math.

And yet he won the game.Teddy didn’t score a touchdown against our defense.
Dak finished 4th overall in total QBR (70.1) out of all QBs in the 2019 NFL Season.
Bridgewater didn't even make it on the 1st page, and that's because the Top 30 QBR rated QBs are listed on it with the highest score being at 81.8 (Jackson) and the lowest being at 34.3 (Rudolph). Wow!

Smh
Then why are you dropping that much money to resign those guys? The tough decision this offseason is going to be higher end guys like Jones, not Anthony Brown. We can factor the math the form an argument anyway you want. Hell you could say that extra $10MM could be spent on 20 camp bodies that will never see anything more than the practice squad for this team, but those aren't the guys you budget around.That money you’d save on Bridgewater basically allows you to re-sign Maliek Collins and Anthony Brown. Two guys who are replaceable with draft picks.
And yet he won the game.
No, it's just the ones in here that disrespect him so much.Dak gets more respect around the NFL than he does from his own fanbase. This thread is a perfect example of the disrespect Dak deals with on an ongoing basis lol...
If I recall correctly, the defense was credited with winning the game against the Saints in 2018 and we won despite Dak.Dak won the exact same type of game vs NO in 2018 (against Brees no less!) — only difference was we were at home. Guess that must mean Dak > Brees using the same logic as those touting Bridgewater in this thread?
NO is a tough place to play... Their D made life miserable on our offense in exactly the same way our D made life miserable against Brees in 2018. Happens from time to time in the NFL lol
Would you take Teddy Bridgewater at under 25 million Or Take Dak for over 35 million
If I recall correctly, the defense was credited with winning the game against the Saints in 2018.
LolDak is 10x better than Teddy. Teddy is a bus driver who can't throw further than 10 yards down the field.
And yet he won the game.
