I don't think this was an issue bc everyone can tell but you just outed yourself to be utterly clueless on the subject Watt being labeled as unathletic is asinine. The game is ridicolous fast. These guys are the definition of athletes
Why are you here? No one cares about your football opinon... or any of your opinions for that matter.. you can take that to the bank..
He's a troll. I wish we had more moderation on this forum that we could be rid of him. He offers exactly 0 for this forum.
Texans sign TE MyCole Pruitt & WR Cobi Hamilton to practice squad Texans worked out TEs Gary Barnidge, Gavin Escobar, Larry Donnell, MyCole Pruitt, David Johnson; WRs Cobi Hamilton & Jordan Leslie; OT Jah Reid; QB Garrett Grayson
You're the biggest coward on this board- and not even close. JJ Watt would knock your ****ing teeth out and then put them back in so he could knock them the **** out again. Pathetic, with all your **** talking, if JJ Watt ran into you at an HEB, you'd wet your panties like a schoolgirl and slob on his knob if given the opportunity. That being said, you're fully entitled to your opinion. As a Texans fan, I am compelled to respond. Thank you.
I wonder if there has ever been a quarterback who dramatically increased his arm strength as he progressed through his NFL career.
He is slight of build for a football player, especially at the NFL level. I don't think he can take the physical punishment. Another not very smart draft pick.
I don't think arm strength is Watson's problem, I think it's mechanics. A lot of the power you put on throws comes from your legs, if you aren't using them properly, you'll lose a lot of power on your throw and it'll even cause accuracy problems. To some people, that kind of thing comes naturally, to some they have to learn it and drill it into their head constantly till it sticks. Guys like Russell Wilson or even Patrick Mahomes are natural throwers so to guys like that getting the ball from point A to point B accurately and with zip is second nature to them from just about any position or situation. That doesn't seem to be the case with Watson, for him, he'll have to learn how to do that. Doesn't mean he can't do it, certainly it's happened in the past many times, it's just something he's not currently good at and it takes time for ANYONE that isn't a natural to perfect.
Tom Savage not looking for trade, and Texans have rebuffed suitors in the past Texans brass had been high on quarterback Tom Savage both internally and in conversations with other clubs for several years, according to several league sources, rebuffing opportunities to move him to quarterback-needy teams in the past. That has prompted some befuddlement from other teams, given Savage was benched just one half into the season-opening game. Savage, who was largely undone by a bevy of drops and woeful pass protection in Week 1, lost his job just 31 offensive plays into the season after being announced as the starter weeks ago and getting most of the first-team reps in the offseason. When the Texans moved up to select Deshaun Watson in the first round, there was always the possibility he would play sooner rather than later, but the extremely short sample size has created an awkward situation. At least four teams have had some level of interest in Savage dating back to last season, and Texans coach Bill O'Brien had long been a champion of the 2014 fourth-round pick. Veteran players came out strongly -- publicly and privately, sources said -- in favor of Savage this summer, and despite a history of pulling starters early, the manner in which Savage was benched last Sunday was shocking. In the past, teams like the 49ers, Vikings (after losing Teddy Bridgewater to a career-threatening knee injury in training camp last summer) and Jets have mulled Savage's availability, and all came away convinced the Texans valued Savage highly and were not interested in trading him, and that it would take significant value in return to pry him away, as he was considered a potential starting quarterback in Houston. "They were almost irrationally high on him," said an executive from one team that had interest in Savage at one point but quickly went in another direction. Despite being unhappy about the way the season has unfolded -- especially after an injury derailed Savage in 2016 once he inherited the starting job from the struggling Brock Osweiler -- and despite the number of teams seemingly unsettled at quarterback, Savage is not contemplating a trade request. "I've never asked (general manager) Rick (Smith) for a trade," said Neil Schwartz, Savage's agent, "and Tom is not seeking a trade. I'm not happy and Tom is not happy about this, but we're not asking for a trade."
