Buffalo Barbarian Posted January 29, 2017 Posted January 29, 2017 There were some around the time I think. never really looked into it, just figured he'd be back
Kirby Jackson Posted January 29, 2017 Posted January 29, 2017 never really looked into it, just figured he'd be back If they didn't get him from the practice field to the hospital amputation was a real possibility. If I recall correctly they didn't make the determination not to amputate for a day or so.
Blokestradamus Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 (edited) Hopefully, some positive news on the Teddy front. https://twitter.com/camdasilva/status/846764317739569155 @camdasilva So this surfaced on Reddit today. Appears to be Teddy Bridgewater dropping back and throwing. #Vikings Edited March 28, 2017 by Blokestradamus
TheElectricCompany Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 Good for him! I hope he bounces back, but it sounds like his entire knee feel apart last year, it's going to be tough.
wppete Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 Man that really sucks. Really like Teddy. The kid does not have any luck. Hope this is not the end of his career.
4merper4mer Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 So is he still expected to miss all of 2017? I'm no Doc but to me his left leg looked very tenuous. I'm assuming that is the one he hurt given the brace and all. Hard not to root for a comeback from him. What a terrible injury.
Formerly Allan in MD Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 this generation's Theismann injury Which was ugly, having been at that game.
BringBackFlutie Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 Which was ugly, having been at that game. Oh man. I wish I were at that game. You must be so cool!
Jauronimo Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 (Cringe) You think a guy suffering a potentially career-ending injury in practice isn't "good or bad?" (Cringe) Not just that. All events are judged through the lens of "how does this effect the Bills?". Ethnic cleansing in Balkans: that's a good thing since the Bills last went to the playoffs in 1999 when Kosovo dominated the news. Conflict in Syria: mostly neutral as we've finished around .500.
DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 (edited) too bad, kid has/had potential Edited March 28, 2017 by DaBillsFanSince1973
row_33 Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 Wow! Didn't they say originally players who saw it puked and/or he was in jeopardy of losing the leg? Yes, loss of the leg was mentioned during the aftermath...
OldTimeAFLGuy Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 If they didn't get him from the practice field to the hospital amputation was a real possibility. If I recall correctly they didn't make the determination not to amputate for a day or so. ...GOOD recall......his injury was far, FAR uglier than Theismann's on MNF......and I just read he has not even been cleared yet for ANY weight bearing therapy......only thing he has going for him is his age and the potential healing powers of youth....sure as hell hope he makes it.....
Rob's House Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 Yeah Culpepper went from 15-1 QB of the Vikings to dude who looked like a 3rd stronger in Miami when he came back. He also went from a guy who looked like he was throwing to Randy Moss to a guy who wasn't.
pkwwjd Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 Which was ugly, having been at that game. My friend's wife was an ER XRay nurse on duty at the hospital when Thiesman came in ... pretty cool story for her to tell. She got to help read the film. That and my friend got peed on by Jim Kelly in the high school locker room after football practice one day. Cool story, bro ...
Rob's House Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 (Cringe) You think a guy suffering a potentially career-ending injury in practice isn't "good or bad?" (Cringe) It's a subjective thing. For the guy with a Bridgewater jersey it's bad news. For Bradford's backup it's good news.

Jimbo was such a Jock back in his day, that's what this team has been lacking under center these last 17 years a true alpha male
26CornerBlitz Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 @Rotoworld_FB Vikings to decline Bridgewater's 2018 option https://t.co/HwFgNptG35
Big Blitz Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 Just another reason to not overreach on a QB at 10. 1. Can draft one in rounds 3--5. Plus next year's draft. If we aren't a playoff team we'll be picking in top 15 again...likely top 10 I have us at 7-9 at best. 2. And available guys in the league. I know....very few. But Bradford had a nice season for the Vikes---compare his stats with Carr's. Maybe a Jimmy G or Cousins hits the market. Now Bridgewater. So when we do get good QB play (I'm not going to say franchise QB) you want as much talent on the team as possible when it happens. Sent from my SM-G928V using Tapatalk
