The more I think about this signing, the more excited I become. If all goes well:
- 19-0
- SBMVP - Brady
- League MVP - Brady
- DPOY - Gillmore
- OPOY - Cooks
- All-Pro First Team - 14 of the 22 "starters"
- The new ring starts a trend of weighing them in pounds, not karats
Opening night, 2018, a new banner is raised. All 6 trophies, plus all 6 rings, PLUS all season/SB awards are on display at mid-field for the ceremony.
The crowd is chanting. In the owner's box, Roger Goodell is fuming behind his fake smile. Patriots greats, past and present, are on the field.
The mass of the awards and rings, coupled with the near-cultish chanting of the Foxborough Faithful and the immense gravity of the night cause a rend in space and time - and thus Cthulu is born again.
Belichick then signs him for 5 years / $48 million with $25 guaranteed to play NT. To quote the hooded one - "He's got good bulk, he really eats up the double-teams."
