Teddy Bridgewater

Matt Rhule isn’t giving up on Teddy Bridgewater just yet.

The Panthers' first-year coach still believes Bridgewater can be the quarterback who helps set the foundation for a winning franchise, even though he is 3-9 in 2020 as a starter.

That’s why Bridgewater will remain the starter for the rest of the season — and possibly the foreseeable future.

The story said Bridgewater came under more scrutiny Sunday after the Panthers failed to pick up a first down on their final drive and lost 32-27 to the Denver Broncos. It continues a frustrating pattern in which Bridgewater has had the ball in his hands with a chance to win or send the game into overtime late in a game only to come up short. As the story said, Bridgewater has been giving his team a chance, but next he has to finish.
