Ideal: Newton is healthy and plays very good football. We'd be a playoff team capable of making some noise. That's worth it to me for a guy on a minimum contract.I just don't understand the logic behind this signing. What's the ideal, realistic outcome here? I mean, the ideal outcome here is a Super Bowl Championship, but let's be realistic.
If Newton plays, and plays well, then he's gone after a year. If he doesn't play well, or play at all, then it wasn't a good signing.
Newton is a really good bounce-back candidate, he had his best year since his MVP in 2018. Also the Pats have a really good cap situation after next season so if Cam balls out they could re-sign him. They wanted another year of Brady to be able to transition to their next QB (Stidham or otherwise) and they a got a former MVP instead for basically nothing.I just don't understand the logic behind this signing.

This is where I’m at with it. If he’s healthy he’s likely a better QB right now than Stidham in 2020. How much better? Who knows? I don’t think his addition is enough to get us into the postseason so I am not sure what the point is. I’d honestly rather win 4 games and get a QB for the future if Stidham doesn’t work out than win 8 games with Cam and have no idea what we have in Stidham and be in the same spot next year when Cam walks.I just don't understand the logic behind this signing.

Why didn't we get our future QB the last 3 years? That is the real question for BB.This is where I’m at with it. If he’s healthy he’s likely a better QB right now than Stidham in 2020.

I was thinking the same thing.I know this was far from the point of the tweet but I swear to god if LaCosse is our starting TE I'm going to riot and loot. I don't even want to see him on the 53.
I had no idea that Lamar would be half as good as he is but I still wanted him over Sony. I figured he was a few years from being a starter in the NFL and he could learn from Brady and take over in 2-3 years and let Josh build the offense around him. Instead we have a plodding banger up JAG RB.Why didn't we get our future QB the last 3 years? That is the real question for BB.
