There is no doubt that in Drew Brees’ absence, the New Orleans Saints backup quarterback shined. Sunday, Drew Brees threw for a season-low, sub-300-yard game and had zero touchdowns.
He finished with a QBR of 87.9.
In Bridgewater’s six starts, he only had one of such games.
This may be premature, but with Brees winding down his career and Teddy getting started in his after getting through early-career injuries woes, is it out of the question to start to talk about a Bridgewater for Brees switch?
We have seen this happen to two quarterbacks already this season.
