IF the unthinkable is true, I think I give Brissett a year with a non-retarded coach/system and with a hopefully retooled team. Brissett has kept us close in how many games? With just a better coach, an OC that knows what he’s doing (or even giving Brissett a full offseason with any system) and a talent infusion elsewhere, I think this team is over 500.
The exception being if we’re in position to take a franchise QB (and Luck is truly done). Brissett might be good, but he’s not likely to ever be elite. If we’re in position to grab a Rosen or Darnold (assuming they grade out), then obviously you take your shot. If it’s only the equivalent of a Pat Maholmes where you don’t know what you have at all, then I think you give Brissett a chance.
