It was only a year ago that Matthew Stafford was on the Detroit Lions, Jared Goff had a guaranteed contract with the Los Angeles Rams, and Jimmy Garoppolo was headed towards an inevitable and probably immediate divorce from the San Francisco 49ers.

If the offseason teaches anything about the regular season and the postseason, it is that you can never predict what will happen next.
