Realistically I only take any pleasure out of seeing Rodgers going down, sorry Peckers fans. Is what it is. I thought Bridgewater was one of the Vikings' better QB picks.

I feel for the kid. Hate to see something like that happen. Now the Bears will get 4 games against back up or terrible QB's.

Don't stroke her knee without permission, though. That's a no no.

They cancelled practice and kicked out the media after Bridgewater went down. Horrible news; I usually assume the worst with non contact knee injuries.

The ambulance is what is scary. They are not usually called out for an ACL injury. Could be a lot worse if nerves were hit or maybe even an artery like mentioned below. Who knows but weird that an ambulance was called. It has to be more than a knee injury.

Not a lot of injuries require an ambulance. Not even an ACL tear. Whatever it is, hope nerve and artery are spared.

Ambulance for Teddy Bridgewater's injury. If it's his leg, this is either really bad or extremely cautious. #Vikings

Only a theory, but it could be ACL only yet they wanted him to move as little as possible to limit secondary damages to ligaments etc. And just had the ambulance go straight to him.

That really, really sucks for Bridgewater.

Don't think there's anything much more frustrating as a football fan than seeing your franchise QB suffer what certainly looks like a serious injury.

Word is he was also having his best camp yet and seemed ready to take the next level step in his development. Hate to see this happen to a good kid ready to advance his career.

In all seriousness though, This is terrible and I feel for the kid. I hope this isn't a major injury that will take him out for an extended period of time.

Sounds really bad. He's being taken to the trauma center. I've never seen anything like this before.

Trauma center? That isn't a knee injury, something is seriously wrong with him.

Taken straight to the trauma center are what is being reported.
