Well he got there in 2014 and the Vikings had 17 passing TD's that year, and they had 14 this year The seasons before that they had 18 in 2013, 18 in 2012, 20 in 2011, and 14 in 2010 that was Brett Favre's final season with them. That means this season the Vikings had the least passing TD's since 2010 when they went 6-10.....but they had Adrien Peterson this year so they are in the playoffs. When you have the best RB in the game, you can get by with a garbage QB.
The Lions made the playoffs 4 times with Barry Sanders, they even made the NFC Championship Game one of those years.

If only he had been good enough to get his team in the end zone even once, they win. When you aren't good enough to get the ball in the end zone and you rely on your kicker to provide literally all of the scoring, sometimes bad things happen.
he put his team in position to win the game vs a top notch defense. If you can't make a 27 yd fg then you shouldn't be in the NFL
The ONLY reason his team was in position to win the game was because of how well the Vikings defense played. If the Vikings D gave up 2 TD's then the game would have been out of reach. It's true that Bridgewater did a good job not turning the ball over, he also didn't move the ball well enough to win. He played safe, but not good.
Yet another series of ridiculous takes. Blames Bridgewater, despite driving the team from the MIN 39 to the SEA 12 inside the last two minutes, in horrible weather conditions. Blames Bridgewater, despite AP's key fumble that led to what turned out to be the game winning FG. Blames Bridgewater, despite the kicker missing a 27 yard FG with 26 seconds left. He blames Bridgewater, despite the holder positioning the laces towards the kicker. He blames Bridewater, despite the snapper putting the ball a bit high.
This game was going to be a low scoring affair regardless. Both defenses played solid and both QB's played well enough to win this type of game. The Vikings just made more mistakes as a team. Seattle's big game experience showed in the 4th and Teddy did his job and put his team in a position to to win. Walsh just could not seal the deal. As team the Vikings have to get Teddy some O-Line help. That is the real reason he get's so much pressure from opposing defenses.
I'm suspicious now. If Seattle makes the super bowl, this game that the Vikings lost was 100% rigged.

This thread just needs to be closed. Bobby is just an obnoxious troll looking for attention and needs to be banned already. He just happens to have some weird fetish about hating on Bridgewater.
If that's your takeaway from that game, then you need to stop spamming every single thread with your "hot takes" because you clearly have no understanding of in-game situations. Bridgewater led a game-winning drive in adverse conditions against the best defense in the NFL....PERIOD.
