What is it with the insanely weird obsession some fans have with Teddy Bridgewater? You truly believe he is “hands down” the regular season MVP? Seriously?
Look, he’s a great person no one is ever doubting that, but he’s a backup game manager at best. He deserves credit for playing smart in those five games, but to pretend like he was the reason the Saints won is absolutely insane.

Dude... We have a record breaking wide receiver and the best thing you have is a quarterback that just didn't screw up for 30% of the season?

How do you think he was able to maintain such a record setting pace without Brees
So did he “not screw up” or did help fuel Thomas’s “mvp” run?
6 INTs all year from Saint QBs. Jamies Winston had 5 int in one game. When you see a 13-3 record you turn to the play of QBs this year and their ability to protect the ball plays a huge role. Thomas did a great job but it begins and ends w the QB play

Demario Davis on D
CGM on O
If I have to choose between them...

So you show me stats that Michael Thomas is great regardless of who throws the ball and that supports Bridgewater how?

Anyone with a brain would say Michael Thomas.

I think you make an argument for cook if we're talking teddy's 5 games. He's been huge the 2nd half of the season and we'd be in a bad spot without him

Teddy did enough to win but our defense was spectacular during this span. He was downright bad against Dallas. Jax.
Team scored 30 points or more in 10/16 games. Teddy has one of them. Offense is in another stratosphere with Drew.

We had the ball 13 more minutes than DAL
7 more minutes than TB
7 more minutes Jax
15 more minutes than the bears
Those are huge TOP numbers. coupled with 2 INT. You want to know why the defense feasted? They weren’t on the field constantly and the opposition did not get extra possessions.
Teddy isn’t going to have stats or score points like Brees. That’s pretty obvious. He executed the gameplan to near perfection. Oh the defense played well? Well yea, wonder why? Thomas didn’t fall off? Wonder why? 5-0 why?

OR Thomas is just THAT DAMN GOOD and this is further proof that we'll be ok with even a mediocre QB after Brees as long as we have Thomas and can get a good run game.

1. The road win in Seattle W3 set the tone for the rest of the season (as did going 5-0)
And this also is slanted. If you actually look at that game all Teddy did was not frick up. He had 177 yards passing.
Kamara balled out that game and we also opened with return TD.
Bridgewater had 2 TDs that game you say? Yeah one was a 1 yarder to Thomas and the other was a short pass to Kamara that Kamara took to the house.
That's called game managing. That's NOT MVP performance. He played decent and did not frick up. That's the literal definition of game managing.
quote:
3. Completed 70% of his passes as a starter, protected the football. Truly an awesome performance and we would not have been in position for a bye without him
Yeah he got that 70% but taking all the open short passes. Absolutely nothing wrong with that and it helped him not frick up because he took almost no chances (maybe 2 deep passes in 6 games?). But it also isn't an MVP performance.
Had our D not played above their heads those games on top of that, we lose likely every single game.
And let us not forget he did lose that Rams game. You could say all you want that he didn't start but he did in fact play the majority of that game (30 passes to Brees' 5 and he had about a 56% comp. rate) and gave our defense ZERO help with all those 3 and outs. 5-1 is his actual record. Putting that loss on Brees is 100% a falsehood.
