Teddy Bridgewater just went down - Torn ACL

[acr731]

If everyone wants something positive no rookie QB has ever lead a team to the Super Bowl. It's going to happen someday why not this year? Lol

RG Knee came close. Before his knee buckled. He hasn't been the same since.

Man the Vikings were a darkhorse super bowl contender. Wouldn't be surprised to see them go 6-10 or 7-9 without Bridgewater. They have a really tough schedule, and while I like their defense a lot I'm not sure it's enough to push them into the playoffs.

This really sucks for them. I bet Heinicke's kicking himself, again.

It really does help to have that running game and that defense backing them up. But that's the sort of thing that gets you to 7-9 instead of 2-14. Fat lotta good that does the fans.

looks like a Serious injury to Bridgewater, practice shut down, ambulance called

stuff like this just goes to show how year to year and week to week this league is now injuries just destroy teams seasons and double so when its the qb

He didn't come that close Washington was knocked out of the first round of the playoffs. If the unthinkable were to happen and Dak were to lead the Cowboys to the Super Bowl as a rookie it would give Romo's career a big black eye.

Ambulance? Is this a compound fracture? An ACL should not require an ambulance.

They took him away in an ambulance. That can't be good.

He'd be day to day if Jerry was their owner.

Rappaport confirming an ACL year.

That really sucks. I hate seeing injuries, period.

Marino went to the Super Bowl as a rookie, lost, and never returned. That's as close as any QB has gotten.

 

[Longboysfan]

Viking were a playoff team. Probably still will be because of the running game and defense. But if Bridgewater made the next step theud be dangerous. They are starting to get some talent at wr also.

I thought they would win the North this year.

The Vikings best option, Taylor Heinicke, is out for three months after severing a tendon when he tried to kick in his friends window.

Rappaport confirming an ACL year.

He's as unreliable as they come.

An ACL doesn't require an ambulance with lights and siren blazing.

Yep, there would be a bunch of unhappy Romo supporters complaining.

IN B 4 someone posts "What's the cap implication if we trade Romo to the Vikes this year"?

Marino led Miami to the Super Bowl during his second season.

It does if the driver was a season ticket holder.

I know you aren't asking but...
11 million net cap hit if traded per OTC

Dak leading the Cowboys to the Super Bowl would just add more fuel to those who've accused Romo of being a choker. To have Dak do as a rookie with a team that was 4-12 the previous year would not be good for Romo's legacy.
