What’s frightening me is that I really think that Bill loves Cam and think he has his guy and will stop looking for QB. Brown and Cam are 1 year deal. I have a feeling that Bill is year to year has no business rebuilding until he retires because he still think he can win now. I wouldn’t be surprised if he signs old middle of the pack veteran in free agency.
Personally I think this has more to do with Free Agency and the draft.
There's a distinct possibility you miss out on all the FA QBs and have to sell potential receivers and tight ends on playing with Stidham for a year. At least cam newton commands respect.
At his low cap price, bill still could sign a trubisky or Mariota for 10million to compete with cam if he wants, or sit back and see how the Jimmy G situation unfolds.
Also, if the Patriots intend to move up in the draft and draft a Fields. He isn't going to play this year, so cam newton is a good mentor in the QB room. Maybe bill is looking at going to a rookie in 2022 so figures he can rebuild the roster, let a guy learn and go with cam for a year.
