We knew going into Sunday’s game that Denver’s pass rush would present problems for Teddy Bridgewater and the Vikings but it actually ended up being worse than we suspected.
The Denver pass rush at times completely overwhelmed the Vikings’ pass protection, sending Bridgewater running for his life.
By game’s end Bridgewater would be sacked 7 times in all, the final sack leading to a game-ending fumble.
But the real story wasn’t the times Bridgewater was taken down, it was the times he was able to escape and still make something happen or at least prevent a worse outcome.
