Today's question: The Minnesota Vikings are talking about high hopes for the 2015 season largely because of Teddy Bridgewater's development. Do you buy the idea that Bridgewater will emerge in 2015, or do you think he'll struggle after going 1-4 against division opponents last year?

Rob Demovsky, Green Bay Packers: The Vikings could've won the game against the Packers in Minneapolis last season if they had gotten an even average performance from Bridgewater. He was far too inaccurate and showed little or no ability to connect with his receivers down the field, as evidenced by his yards-per-pass average of just 5.7. He was a bit of a check-down-Charlie that day. Maybe it was just the way of life for a first-year starter who got thrown into the fire right away and wanted to play it safe. If so, I'd expect better from Bridgewater this season. And maybe the Vikings don't need him to be an All-Pro. If their running game gets back to what it used to be with Adrian Peterson and if their defense becomes a typical Mike Zimmer unit, then incremental improvement from Bridgewater might be good enough. But if you're banking on him becoming Aaron Rodgers or even Matthew Stafford, that's probably false hope.

Jeff Dickerson, Chicago Bears: I like Bridgewater. Do I feel his arm strength is kind of suspect? Yes. But Bridgewater showed me a lot at the end of last season. Quarterbacks have to be leaders. Bridgewater seems to understand what is expected of him at the position. Some young quarterbacks fall victim to off-the-field or locker room issues, but I don't suspect that will be a problem with Bridgewater. Will he eclipse Aaron Rodgers as the No. 1 quarterback in the NFC North? Of course not. But can Bridgewater win as much as Matthew Stafford in Detroit or Jay Cutler in Chicago, despite not having the same kind of physical gifts as his two rivals? I feel comfortable saying yes. So much of a quarterback's success depends on the environment. My take on Minnesota -- they're an organization on the rise with a solid head coach in Mike Zimmer. All the elements are there for Bridgewater to keep improving. Having Adrian Peterson in the backfield doesn't hurt either.

Michael Rothstein, Detroit Lions: This could depend on the availability and productiveness of Adrian Peterson. Having Peterson in the lineup should take a lot of pressure off Bridgewater to have to make more plays than he is capable of, especially without a star No. 1 receiver. He'll need some of those receivers -- particularly free-agent signing Mike Wallace, who has had 800 or more receiving yards in the past five seasons, to be a game-changing weapon. He also needs to use Kyle Rudolph, one of the better tight ends in the league when healthy, as much as possible. The issue there is Rudolph has missed 15 games the past two seasons. But as long as Bridgewater has the right group of players around him, he should be in a position to become a top 15-ish quarterback in the NFL by the end of the year.
