Will you still be fine when we suck again and still have no quarterback solution a year from now?
They'll draft some bum in the 4th round and press pause on the rebuild for a second year.
There is no long-term solution in QB FA. Unless you're living in a Watson fantasy world or believe its a good idea just waiting and be dependant on other teams QB decisions for some QB to fall into your lap. Its one thing to speculate about fantasy trades which makes media and boards like this exist but reality of FA is another matter. And if some QB BB likes more becomes available (f.e. Garoppolo) and NE is in a position to compete - there's nothing stopping them to make that move.. (personally im not so sure BB likes Jimmy better than Cam)
I enjoyed very much the beginning of the season before Cam got covid. And that team was as depleted as it gets with so many last minute opt-outs, injuries and tight cap.
Cam was last minute decision last yr, no time/circumstance to properly prepare for the season or build around him. This year they can build strong team across the board (which i fully expect they will) and be in a position to find and groom young QB.
What i like about this move as my personal joy is that i dont have to hear about really troubling moves like Mariota, Bridgewater, Smith etc anymore.
Most serious people in media fully expect strong Patriots in 2021 regardless of QB situation. Only pats fans on this board are trashing the season before it began.
