Do the San Francisco 49ers have a shot at signing Tom Brady this coming off-season?

The Athletic’s Jeff Howe joined Cattles & Ramie on Thursday to discuss the possibilities of the GOAT joining the Red & Gold, how far Brock Purdy can take the 49ers and more NFL storylines.

Topics discussed include:

  • Does Brock Purdy have a legitimate shot at becoming the 49ers’ quarterback if he plays well to close out the 2022 season?
  • Purdy playing well makes Jimmy Garoppolo more expendable
  • If there’s a bidding war for Tom Brady, what are the chances the 49ers go after the future Hall of Fame quarterback?
  • How emotional will Josh McDaniels get in his game against Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots?
  • If Thursday night’s loss to the Rams was the worst loss of the season for the Raiders
  • Saturday’s game between the Miami Dolphins and the Buffalo Bills is big for Tua Tagovailoa
  • The stories of the Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers are both incredible for the 2022 season for completely different reasons
