Teddy Bridgewater had zero interest in tackle on Eagles' game-changing defensive TD

Teddy Bridgewater is not out there to tackle.

Just check the tape.

The Denver Broncos quarterback faced a big decision after a critical turnover against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday. He chose business. His own, that is.

With the Eagles leading 20-13 late in the third quarter, the Broncos faced fourth-and-1 at Philadelphia's 23-yard-line. They went for it. Running back Melvin Gordon fumbled. Eagles cornerback Darius Slay picked it up and navigated a horde of would-be tacklers who stood no chance of stopping the speedy defensive back.

Well, one did.
