As we all know, Teddy Bridgewater had an excellent first season for the Vikings. Thrust into action much earlier than he or the team expected, Bridgewater finished at the top of the class when it comes to rookie quarterbacks in the NFL this season.

When the dust settled on his first year as a pro, he ended up breaking or tying 91 (!) team records. Now of course we're not going to pretend that all of these carry the same weight or that he's on the road to Canton already, but rather that this list just helps reinforce Bridgewater's stellar start and the strong foundation he's help build for the team moving forward into 2015 and beyond.
