Minnesota Vikings' Teddy Bridgewater: 'We're not as good as we think we are'

Bridgewater: 'We're not as good as we think we are'

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Teddy Bridgewater has warned his teammates that they are not as good as they think they are ahead of the 2015 season.

The 23-year-old had a solid campaign in his rookie season as he steered the club to a 7-9 record without All-Pro running back Adrian Peterson.

However, Bridgewater has insisted that his side have a long way to go to improve on last season, despite having Peterson back in the fold.

"Right now, we're not as good as what we think," Bridgewater told reporters.

"We know that the ceiling is very high and the expectation level is very high -- not only for the players, but from a coaching staff also.

"We know what's being asked of us, but we have a long way to go."

Bridgewater threw for 2,919 yards and 14 touchdowns to 12 interceptions in the 2014 season.
