Having Teddy Bridgewater(who wasn't all that great when he was healthy) be your QB1 is much, much better. Glad your thought process has seen the light.

Matt39 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Just now, King P said: I like this move. Provided he can stay healthy of course. He's still young and still has potential. And we can still draft a QB. Not sure why everybody is bitching about this move. Aside from Cousins who is now off the market, what option is better than Bridgewater ? We'll see what the money/contract is. Still needs to pass a physical as his injury was as bad as it can possibly get. He hasnt played in two years. Dont trust this regime with the draft and understanding they one million percent have to draft a QB this year in the first round regardless of what retreads they bring in.

HawkeyeJet Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Teddy Bridgewater has thrown 551 passes in his NFL career. He's accumulated 6150 yards, 28/22 TD to Int and 65% completion % and 89 QB rating. Over his first 550 NFL passes, Cousins threw for 4035 yards 22/23, 61% and 79 QB rating. I'm presenting this with the preface that I am not super thrilled with how today has unfolded. It does not look good on the part of the Jets FO. I also realize that the 2 situations aren't apples to apples in both supporting cast and role on the team. I just think it's interesting. I'm sure 3 years ago no one thought Cousins would amount to anything. I'm not saying I think Bridgewatee will(although that's what I'll be told I'm doing). I just think it's an interesting snapshot, and a reminder there have been far weirder and unlikely success stories than Teddy Bridgewater. Ballwasher, over and out.

Macc and Bowles knew it was insta-firing if they sent Hack out there to start putting up Ryan Leaf numbers. The most inexcusable thing was keeping him on the game day roster as a face saving move when they both knew he would never be allowed to throw in the game under any circumstances even if McCown and Petty went down.

rammagen Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 so much optimism on the board....not this move is smarter for the team because we are not tying up 90 million long term 3 or 4 deal mat 12 mill starting take the extra 16 million and sign some decent o lineman or a line backer. draft a qb a rb and go from there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flgreen Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Liked Bridgewater in the draft, said before the Cousins mania started (who I would have been good with) that I wanted Bridgewater, and Mayfield. Got half of it anyhow. Can't see Mayfield being there at 6 at this point, but ya never know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Untouchable Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Meh Just pray to God that the Jets don’t bring in McCown as well at this point. If that happens, then we’re all going to be sh*tting ourselves until the draft. If the Jets don’t make a move for one of the Top 4 QB’s...I may finally be done. That sh*t will officially break me.

Lith Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 With Cousins going to Minnesota, Keenum in Denver, Brees staying in NO, here are some of the top remaining available options: Bridgewater McCarron Bradford McCown Kapernick Cutler Geno Given the alternatives, I will take Teddy. 25 years old, huge injury risk but some upside as well. Beats a 38-year old vet like Fitz/McCown. Still need to get a guy in R1 of the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
