I’d think SF would still be in a mess with injuries on D & a very tough division... Brady in SF wouldn’t be enough to surpass Seattle IMO.
If (when) Cam leaves for big $ this offseason, NE should explore a JG reunion. SF has an « out » this summer to avoid paying him and he’d likely come cheap. Firstly, other teams might not rate him very highly, secondly there’ll be quite a few QBs on the market that might appeal to competitors.
I’d not want NE to break the bank for JG, but considering what BB & JMcD have done w Cam in such little time...
The running, the OL, Jimmy’s familiarity : it could be a redemption story.
