He doesn't have a fifth year option. it would be his fourth year.
I think that would be a tremendous mistake. He is a good player and just finding a good qb is hard enough. if we pay him 50-55 mil - t hat'll be a super discount in a year or two from now.
I think it would be dumb to not pay him. We have an excellent chance to win with brock, as long as the team is healthy and players children aren't passing away or players getting shot. as long as our defense isn't the worst in the league in the fourth. as long as we don't have the absolute worst special teams in the league.
Last season is an outlier. Everything is going to be fine, we will rebound this up coming season and be in contention for the super bowl again. if we won 6 games with that abysmal team last year, we can win 10+ with a half way decent defense and ST.
