2,398 yards, 8 TD, 8 INT, 6 fumbles, 158 rushing, 2 TD. ESPN passer rating ranks 28th in the NFL ahead of Kaep, Luck, Manning, and Foles. With Peterson.

Norv Turner gets a good chunk of the blame.

What is Teddy's ceiling? Still starting in 2 seasons?

He's OK. Never thought he was anything special, and still don't really. I will say that OLine is doing him no favors at all.

I doubt he'll ever be top-10 at the position, but he'll be ok enough to make the playoffs every now and then with a strong defense and run game a la Alex Smith. I think a Smith-like career is a solid ceiling to expect from him.

I'm willing to give him a bit more rope. At least one more season.

Outside of the last play of the game, and one other play he didn't get touched tonight.

Exactly, which is why he had a very good night.

I like (don't love) him. I think his ceiling is right around top 10 but not much higher, which I am fine with

I thought he was a product of the system at Louisville, but he has turned out much better. I think he will max out at 10 to 15, which still isn't bad.

He does what a good portion of the NFL needs, he wins and doesn't hurt you. He's Russel Wilson without the great D. He will get a huge check and play for a while, but he will never wow you with his play. He just goes to work and grinds. However, what truly wins in the NFL are grinders. People who show up and do their job. Almost every time a team is made up of superstars and big personalities it implodes. I don't think Bridgewater is close to that.

He is 22 years old. At this point, he is limited to short and intermediate passed, but he played his best game of the season last night.

He is a below average QB right now. There is room for growth and physical maturity.

The offensive line is below average in pass protection. Their two best lineman, Loadholdt and Sullivan, have been out all year. First down play calling is telegraphed.

I think he will be a franchise QB (not necessarily great or very good), but everyone needs to let him develop before rushing to judgment.

He will always have a career to fall back on.

He's above average at best, but that line and average at best receiving group does him no favors either.

I'd like to see him in an offense that isn't archaic and plays to his strengths.
