If they're going to guarantee Jimmy G $22 million as a backup, that's pretty ballsy.



if he's your future (and you are 100% sure of it) but your HOF-caliber QB can still lead you, what else would you do?

Drag it out for one more year, it doesn't hurt too much the way they play with cap space and draft/FA

It cripples the team with a non-productive $22 million for 2018 and hands all of the leverage to Jimmy. I might entertain it if we hadn't just seen Kirk Cousins take the Redskins to the woodshed trying this kind of foolishness.

This is all assuming that kicking the can down the road another year helps you out of the situation. What if Brady still wants to play (it would seem unlikely, but he's still playing now).

That's a huge if. Obviously the Patriots know a lot more than we do, but he's done nothing to prove to the general public that he's the future.
