Author’s Notes:
So my fourth timeline, this time returning to the NFL. The POD being the 2004 Offseason, mainly the draft, being drastically changed. The Chargers are going to have full believe in Drew Brees and decided to get him a weapon instead of someone to look over his shoulder. The Cardinals didn’t want to waste a pick that high on a QB but without Fitzgerald on the board I think they would have, and Roethlisberger isn’t passed on by his somewhat hometown team of the Browns. Things will be drastically changed from my previous NFL timeline of course, meaning different commissioner (because goofball Goodell still isn’t becoming it), different winners, different destinations for QBs etc, etc. As always, enjoy the introduction teaser and the first season shall follow soon.
