The Patriots re-signed long time time back up Brian Hoyer on Monday to a one year deal. The Hoyer signing came on the heels of the team signing guard Alex Redmond earlier in the day. Redmond has starting experience and would provide an experienced option off the bench. Enough about him however. Back to Hoyer. So what does the Hoyer signing mean? I don’t know? I honestly cannot tell you….

Monday night we caught a glimpse of what life would look like without Cam Newton and it wasn’t pretty. All off season we foolishly believed that the Patriots could compete with either Brian Hoyer or Jarrett Stidham as their starting quarterback. That notion has been put to bed.

Is this Cam Newton’s team? Time will tell. First he has to beat out Jarrett Stidham and Brian Hoyer. For the first time in 20 years, Tom Brady will not be taking a snap from under center for the Patriots. It is the dawn of a new era for the Patriots at the quarterback position. We’ll sort of. For the first time in almost 30 years, the Patriots will have…

Bill Belichick said in his press conference with the media on Friday that Cam Newton, Jarrett Stidham and Brian Hoyer will compete for the starting quarterback job in camp. Of course we haven’t had a “quarterback competition” around these parts since 1993 when rookie Drew Bledsoe competed against Scott Zolak for the starting job in Bill Parcells first year.

Then, we began hearing that Brian Hoyer was there too, just incase anyone was worried.

Quarterbacks: Tom Brady, Brian Hoyer, Jarrett Stidham Tom Brady is entering his 20th season in the NFL and is still playing at a high level despite what national pundits were saying last season.
