Scouting report

MIA QB Teddy Bridgewater - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 at New England Patriots

Teddy Bridgewater will draw the start for Miami this week as Tua Tagovailoa has been ruled out with a concussion. Bridgewater looked solid in limited playing time earlier in the season. Most notably against the Vikings when he threw for 329 yards with two touchdowns while playing on just 69% (nice) of the offensive snaps. This week he'll face a Patriots defense that hasn't been as tough on quarterbacks lately, giving up the 12th-most average fantasy points to the position over the past four weeks. Overall, Bridgewater is in a nice position with capable receivers in Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle. If you're in a pinch, Bridgewater is a decent option for Week 17. He'll be right around that QB15 range.

MIA QB Teddy Bridgewater - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 at New York Jets

Tua Tagovailoa has already been ruled out for Week 5, which means Teddy Bridgewater draws the start. Bridgewater looked pretty good in Week 4 considering he was thrust into the lineup on a short week. He threw for 193 yards and a touchdown (with an interception) while playing 61% of the game. Bridgewater is a capable quarterback, and he gets put into a great situation in Miami with arguably the best WR duo in the league. He also gets a decent matchup against the Jets this week as New York has given up the 11th most average fantasy points to quarterbacks this year. Bridgewater likely won't light up the stat sheet, but he's a good streaming option if you're in need of a QB this week. He should be viewed around the QB15 range.

CAR QB Teddy Bridgewater - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 vs. New Orleans Saints

Teddy Bridgewater has had his moments this season, but he’s largely been limited to a streaming option in good matchups in most fantasy leagues. He had 197 yards, a touchdown and a pick last week in a tough game against Washington. He does have five rushing touchdowns, giving him some upside, but predicting when those are going to occur is dicey at best. This week, he faces a Saints defense that ranks third in aFPA to opposing quarterbacks, so it’s way too risky to trust him during championship week. Look elsewhere.

CAR QB Teddy Bridgewater - Week 16 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 at Washington Football Team

Teddy Bridgewater had 258 yards passing last week in a loss to the Packers, but he added 26 yards and a touchdown on the ground. Bridgewater has more rushing yards and rushing touchdowns than in any other season of his career, which has given him a bit of a boon for fantasy owners looking for steady production.

This week, Bridgewater faces a Washington defense that ranks ninth in aFPA to opposing quarterbacks. Not a great situation to use a spot-starter in, especially for the fantasy championship. Look elsewhere if possible.

CAR QB Teddy Bridgewater - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 at Green Bay Packers

Teddy Bridgewater had 283 yards passing last week against the Broncos, with no picks and no touchdowns. He also added 31 yards and a touchdown on the ground, however, turning in a solid fantasy day overall. Bridgewater has been a solid spot-starter all season in the right matchups, particularly as a bye-week or injury filler, and he should continue to be the over the final few weeks of the year.

This week, Bridgewater faces a Packers defense that ranks eighth in aFPA to opposing quarterbacks. That’s not a good sign for Teddy, who may see a ton of pressure. While it’s possible the Panthers play from behind and throw a ton, the pressure could cause turnovers, making Teddy a risky bet in most leagues. He should be considered a deep QB2 option at best.

CAR QB Teddy Bridgewater - Week 14 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 14 vs. Denver Broncos

Teddy Bridgewater had a bit of a rough outing against the Vikings before the bye last week. He was held to just 53.8% completion, and ended up with a modest 267 yards, a touchdown and a pick in a narrow loss. Bridgewater hasn’t been bad this year, and he’s had some solid performances in decent matchups, but he’s no more than a streamer.

This week, he faces a Broncos defense that ranks 20th in aFPA to opposing quarterbacks. That makes him worth considering in deeper leagues as a streaming option, or perhaps as a QB2 option, but we have him just barely inside our top-20 this week, making him someone most fantasy owners should pass on.

CAR QB Teddy Bridgewater - Week 12 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 at Minnesota Vikings

Teddy Bridgewater missed last week’s matchup against the Lions, where P.J. Walker stepped in admirably with an uneven – albeit exciting- performance. This week, Teddy might return, but either way, sit him. The Vikings rank eighth in aFPA to opposing quarterbacks, and no matter which quarterback starts for the Panthers, it’ll be risky to bank on them. Fantasy owners should look elsewhere this week if possible.
