especially since there is no guarantee a season will take place.

How can the NFL possibly hold games in TX, FL, AZ, or CA as long as the pandemic is raging out of control. There is no indication those states are going to lock down again so cases will likely continue to rise.

Belichek (sp?) could be on the verge of pulling another rabbit out of his hat. Cam was a great QB and can be again with the right team and the right coaches. His downfall with the Panthers was mainly due to injuries. He might be 100% healthy now and ready to play at his former level again.
