The Detroit Lions seems pretty darn happy with their current quarterback, Jared Goff. I'm incredibly impressed with Goff's performance this last season, so I'm 100% onboard.

That said, some NFL commentators are speculating about Tom Brady joining the Detroit Lions. Say what? It's something we've joked about for a long time, but these guys are serious.

During Tuesday’s (Jan. 24) PFT Live, Chris Simms and Mike Florio discussed possible destinations for Brady. In a new article via NBC Sports, Florio writes, "So while coming up with places where Brady may think he would have a chance to win an eighth championship, Simms mentioned one I hadn’t previously considered. The Detroit Lions."

Florio adds, "Wouldn’t that be something? Tom Brady, back in Michigan. Tom Brady, with a Lions team that finished 2022 strong. A Lions team with an impressive nucleus of talented players. A Lions team that quarterback Jared Goff may be able to lead on a deep run in the postseason, but may not be able to take over the top. Brady has shown he can do it. Seven times. And while he’s 46, if the Lions want to finally make an appearance in the Super Bowl and possibly even win it, Brady could give them a better chance to do it than Goff."

What do you think? I admire Brady, but I want Goff to stick with the Lions. I think he has what it takes to get us to the next level. Find the full article via NBC Sports here. Reach out to me on Facebook here and let me know what you think.
