Here's my case:
1. Jimmy is low key not very good, on a huge contract. He's no Kaep, even. He's been carried heavy by Kittle but at some point when the going gets tough he's going to make mistake that lose you games (wishful thinking? maybe)
2. Put Brady with the new Gronk, Kyle Shanahan and a great surrounding core and you'll find out he ain't dead just yet. Now you're riding the GOAT QB and a great defense into two SB runs. Smartest QB paired with the smartest HC/OC in the league. With the motivation to win one more without Bill.
And you get out of Jimmy's deal...
Jimmys contract was incredibly front loaded. For instance, he only had an $18M cap hit this year which was like the 15th most expensive QB in the NFL. If they want out of his contract they can basically cut him for nothing after this year. I think they would have like $4M in dead cap if they wanted to cut him this offseason so if they want out of his contract they can basically do it at any time.
as much hate as Jimmy gets, he was better in every statistical category than Brady was this year and he is 15 years younger and he makes less money. If Brady isnāt doing it with the GOAT NFL coach, I donāt see him turning it around drastically. Guys arm is basically dead at this point in his career
