It's easy to lose track of time these days, but last I checked, the year was 2020.
Not 2016. Definitely not 2012.
Which is why the question Kay Adams posed Thursday on NFL Network's "Good Morning Football" was so absurd: Which quarterback-tight end combo would you buy for 2020 -- the 49ers' Jimmy Garoppolo and George Kittle or the Tampa Buccaneers' Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski?
The answer is quite obvious, which is why NFL Network's Nate Burleson, Peter Schrager and Kyle Brandt all had the same response.
It's Jimmy G and Kittle.
