They're sitting at three and five, and Cam Newton certainly has struggled.

So my question to you will put the time on the clock.

Is Will Cam Newton be a starting quarterback on any NFL team Week one of next season?

Go?

No, and and and and it's hard for me to say it.

He has not helped himself in any way, and I understood this is his Onley opportunity.

This is the only place that was willing to give him a contract willing to allow him to start, But Cam Newton hasn't played well down the stretch.

Cam Newton did make some plays against the New York Jets, but not enough plays that say, You know what?

We need to build our next three or four years around this quarterback who we know can get banged up who we know has been injured.

And so when you look at his play, you look at his history.

You look at his injury history.

I don't believe a team bets his future on Cam Newton going forward after this year.

Yeah, we're talking about a quarterback now, so we're putting more time into the conversation.

Azaz.

One would expect, Nick, I'll put the same question to you.

Do you expect Cam Newton to be a starting quarterback in the NFL next year?

I want to say yes so badly, but the answer is no.

Everything that he does looks like he's laboring.

It looks like he's laboring when he's running.

Looks like he's laboring when he is throwing, and it's just it's hard for me to imagine a team looking at him and thinking that he's gonna be a long term option.

Obviously, the only argument for it is that he's gonna be a short term option, and it doesn't even seem like he's being that to the degree that I think New England expect him to.

So he better turn it up, get a lot better in the next couple weeks or letting the final few weeks or he won't have a chance to start anywhere.

Eso that there's so many different ways this conversation could go, but let's just focus on the team that he's on right now.

And Dan Graziano.

I'm old enough to remember when Jared Stidham was going to be the future of the New England Patriots, and we seem to have forgotten all about that.

Are we going to see him this year for the Patriots, and does he have a chance to be their starting quarterback Week one next year?

I don't think they've given up on Jarrett Stidham as a possible long term option, but based on where he was drafted, he was never the Onley option.

They were always gonna look at other possibilities.

So I think if they get eliminated or if Cam Newton gets hurt, you see Jared stood and maybe get a look so they know what they have going forward.

But this is a team that's going to be in the quarterback market.

There's no question about it.

And Cam Newton thio Ryan's point.

He hasn't hasn't shown him what he needed to show to get another year.

The Patriots in the quarterback market is obviously something that we're not accustomed to, saying so dominate.

Why not?

Let's have some fun.

Who do you think should be the quarterback, the starting quarterback for the Patriots next year?

I'm here for the fun.

Please do not go to Dan Graziano after this answer because he's gonna ruin it with all his fax.

Andrew Luck.

Andrew Luck coming out of retirement, The Colts air going to trade him.

Andrew Luck taking over New England.

Celebrate your back in the Super Bowl hunt.

Luckett.

Iss.

I've been hearing his name.

Why am I hearing his name so much like his?

Dominique said it, but I don't I don't know what a Zen anybody heard from it.

Like there's been nothing from Andrew luck since he retired, right?

We don't know where he is.

I don't I've not heard anything about him coming back, but it sure would be fun.

Someone called up the parody Twitter account.

Find out if they're hearing it.

Ryan, what about you?

Who do you think?

That's not the answer I was expecting to hear.

Ryan, let me go to you.

Who do you believe will be their starting quarterback?

Next year?

It is gonna be It's gonna be Jimmy Garoppolo.

The San Francisco 40 Niners understand his injury history.

I think they try to move on and go to a different place at quarterback.

There.

They believe they've hit their ceiling with who he is.

And Jimmy Garoppolo goes back.

That's Bill Belichick's guy anyway.

He doesn't want it to be special.

He wants him to be his dude.

And I think that's where Jimmy Garoppolo is the starting quarterback next year because Bill Belichick doesn't want to totally rebuild, but he'll start over with something he's familiar with.

Yes, that is the one I was expecting.

And for those of you who are with us on Friday, Rob Ninkovich.

Former Patriot knows Bill pretty well.

That's his expectation.
