The Brady thing was inexcusable.
I disagree it was inexcusable...Brady was coming off one of his worst seasons and was 42. Jimmy just went to the SB and while wasn't a all-pro there was a chance for him to improve off that. He ended not.
Stafford wanted to be in LA from day 1. He was interested in SF, but end of the day his wife wanted LA and the Lions had a former Rams FO guy as their GM. Plus they ate the Goff contract, SF wasn't doing that.
IMO if Watson didn't go off getting hand jibbers from everyone, he would be a Niner right now. I'm happy with Lance and excited to see what he can do in the future.
