Is Teddy Bridgewater an impact quarterback now? - Bridgewater's checkdown-heavy approached has been replaced by deep balls. Will it last?

Teddy Bridgewater has always been a good quarterback. He’s never been a gunslinger.

The well-traveled passer has been more of a low-risk option than the field-stretching threats who’ve defined the rise of vertical offenses the past decade. While players like Patrick Mahomes and Matthew Stafford were lobbing grenades, Bridgewater was mostly content to take a few soft pistol shots to open receivers near the line of scrimmage.

After all, Bridgewater came into 2021 with a career high of 15 passing touchdowns.
