Starting in place of an injured Drew Brees, Teddy Bridgewater threw for 281 yards and two touchdowns in the New Orleans’ Saints road win over the Chicago Bears in Week 7 of the 2019 season. In covering the spread as a 4-point underdog, Bridgewater improved to 27-7 against the spread as a starter in his career.
Two years and three teams later, Bridgewater is no longer covering at a 79-percent clip, but the Denver Broncos’ starter still has the best cover rate of any active NFL quarterback in at least 20 career starts (entering Week 15 of the 2021 season).
Bridgewater is one of 43 active quarterbacks with at least 20 starts. Seventeen of them are under .500, 25 are over .500, and Ryan Tannehill is the only quarterback at .500 (62-62-3). Colt McCoy ranks dead last (.348), followed by Sam Darnold (.394), and Baker Mayfield (.395), while Bridgewater ranks first (.677), followed by Josh Allen and Tom Brady (.598).
