Nobody is saying he didn't improve. But to what level is the question? Not saying he won't end up being a very good QB either, just not this year.
Before I get into an argument over who will have a better year, one needs to define the parameters. Not a huge fan of QBR, but if you want to talk total yards or touchdowns thrown, both Cutler and Stafford will trounce Bridgewater this year. If you want to compare a QB he dinks and dunks short safe pass's all game long to a Qb who airs it out on a consistent basis, not an apples to apples comparison. Bridgewater's numbers look good as he was being handled properly as a rookie. Small playbook, safe pass's, etc etc. Lets see if the Vikes open up the playbook for him this year and how he progress's. This is why so many QB's "slump" in their second year.
Assuming Peterson will do it again, two years later is absurd. Perhaps the Bears should sign Montana, I hear he has had lots of rest? This is the same back that almost refused to even play for the Vikes, Green bays loss is overstated, Detroit is Detroit is an argument when you don't have an argument, and Royal = Marshal is laughable.
Feel free to mock me when the vikings fail miserably, but as it stands they are the only team in the division that looks to be in a significantly better position going in to this season.[/QUOTE]

With that many ties, Fuller's wardrobe appears to be sharper than his cover skills.

The vikes were 27th on offense last year....just bad. And the backup Bears D shut them down week 17. They are this year's media darling pick like AZ was years ago and kept missing the playoffs. I think the vikes will miss it again this year

Yeah, but you also think that Rodgers is a big choke artist, so I think your criticism of the media should fall on deaf ears.

FWIW, I've been watching Teddy B without AP all pre-season and he's been looking fine, he moves well and goes through his progressions nicely. I think they make a leap this year, especially if AP ends being AP of a few years ago.

Good point. Ricky Williams never really returned to his former self.

My thoughts are that the Viks actually have a solid D, this is the 2nd year in that system, Bridgewater isn't a rookie and he has Peterson. Also, at this point Rudolph is healthy. On the surface that doesn't mean much, but he's a mismatch for both LBs and safeties.

It's Adrian Peterson. He was the leading rusher with just months removed from ACL reconstruction.
Also, being an NFCN rival you've seen him his entire career. Until he shows he's lost a step it's probably wise to assume he'll be the same guy he's always been.
Maybe to counter your thoughts that AP will regress you should remember he isn't running against Lovie's Tampa 2 that features Urlacher, Briggs, Tillman, etc... in their prime.

No....you're right...it's someone else playing qb and losing those games. These games are on film too so I knew you would have a hard time with that fact. :bowrofl:
The vikes are being pumped up and quite a bit are buying in. I'm sure you know that the vegas odds for season wins for them has went from 7 to 7.5 with a -250 on the over.
Also....how do you get criticism of the media from saying the Vikes are the media darlings? Lol good post

Good repsonse. I thought you would respong in a skirting way in regards to a qb named Rodgers losing those games. Also great retort on the really bright media comment you made that you got called out on.
So was Rodgers playing in those playoff choke games? A simple yes or no would do for those of us who don't want to read a paragraph of denial or excuses.
