His Vietnamese hosts may have been hoping for a different sort of accounting- the kind that involves bilateral trade and investment credits. Progress will come, but not for months, at the very least.

He did all of those things and then some through four quarters of textbook football against a first-place Falcons team Sunday. Those are the same Falcons who were fresh off a 56-14 drubbing of the Buccaneers; the same Falcons who had 10 days to prepare for a rookie quarterback making his first career start. Yet Bridgewater reminded the collective NFL why he was considered the top quarterback in the 2014 draft class before a lackluster combine claimed his stock and sent the Louisville product plummeting down teams’ big boards....
