Henry Ruggs - Drunk driving, killed a woman Leonard Little - Drunk driving, killed a woman Donte Stallworth - Drunk driving, killed a person Josh Brent - intoxication manslaughter, killing his own teammate Michael Vick - dog fighting Ray Lewis - murderer Ben Roethlisberger - “Rapist” Adrian Peterson - beat his kid(s) with a switch Joe Mixon - punched a woman Ray Rice - beat the **** out of his GF Greg Hardy - beat the **** out of his ex-GF Richard Sherman - DUI, tried to break into wife’s parents home Antonio Brown - pick and choose an incident Bob Kraft - Solicitation/Prostitution Dan Snyder - pick and choose an incident How about those Chiefs (and ex-Chiefs) Kareem Hunt - assaulted a woman Damon Arnette - assault with a deadly weapon Willie Gay - misdemeanor criminal destruction of property <$1,000 Britt Reid - drunk driving, nearly killed a little girl Tyreek Hill - beat the **** out his pregnant GF; son had a broken arm (officially he was “bracing for a fall”…sure yeah ok) Frank Clark - felony home invasion; disorderly conduct; felony firearm possession(x2) On and on and on and on… Again, if you’re looking for clean, good guys, nice guys, maybe the NFL isn’t for you. (Or maybe your full of ****.) On the other hand, the Texans are perfect for you. Never have to worry about them signing/employing anyone with a history. NFL takes all your wife/GF beaters, child abusers, animal abusers, sexual assaulters, drunk drivers, druggies, criminals but sure, I(you) draw the line at Deshaun Watson and Eric Bieniemy. But let’s be honest. Everyone knows it, sees it. You’ve never liked Deshaun. (Has nothing to do with the trade request or allegations. Didn’t like him before that either.) Never thought he was good. Somewhere between like the 18th-32nd “best” QB. Liked guys like Jared Goff, Carson Wentz, Ryan Tannehill, Matt Ryan, Ben Roethlisberger, Jimmy Garoppolo more. Add Davis Mills to that. LOL No really, you and a few others think Davis is the next franchise QB. Good luck to you and the Texans with that. (Biggest Davis Mills fans are also the biggest Deshaun haters…HA! Again, nothing to do with the trade request or allegations. Y’all didn’t like him before that either.) BTW, @TEXNIFICENT called y’all out on y’all’s bullshit. He’s a sexual predator rapist(and some of y’all truly believe he is) who belongs in prison, cut his ass. “Believe all women!” “Zero tolerance!” Y’all out here DEMANDING three-four-five first round picks for this “sexual predator rapist”. LOL Now that’s funny. And your lame ass excuse is “but but but the salary cap!” “But but but the dead money hit if they cut him!” So…you nor the Texans really care about those woman. You just wanna extract value out of this guy. Cut his ass if you believe he’s a sexual predator rapist? Y’know, how the Chiefs just cut Damon Arnette? Y’know, how the Raiders immediately released Henry Ruggs? Y’know, how the Falcons immediately cut Barkevious Mingo for indecency with a child? (Charges were later dismissed but the Falcons didn’t wait) Y’know, how the Vikings immediately cut 1st round pick Jeff Gladney for hitting & strangling his GF? Y’know, organizations who put their money where their mouth is and “zero tolerance” is really “zero tolerance”. “No! We need 5 first round picks for that sexual predator rapist!” HAHAHAHAHAHA (Deshaun will play again. He’s not going to jail LOL stop it. He will choose where he wants to go. No he doesn’t owe the Texans anything. Sorry blame y’all’s boy Jack & Bill who gave him the NTC. “Well he shouldn’t have signed the deal!” And…? Still wouldn’t be free. Texans would slap the tag on him. Probably will be suspended. No one will care/will remember 2-3-5-10 years from now. I mean, you just did see how the NFL/media/Steelers fans celebrated Roethlisberger? And you did see how the NBA/world celebrated Kobe?)
No QB has won a championship taking up more than fifteen percent of the cap. Watson certainly isn't the guy to break this trend We shall see.
Sorry you put in so much work, True, I don't want Sexual Predators and people who cover up rapes on the Texans. Shoot me. I feel differently about 1 time DV and drunk driving etc... I draw the line at the sexual stuff.
Bienemy can work, he's currently working. I just don't want him to lead the team I root for. I'm surprised you do Like I said in another post, I'm willing to forgive a 1 time DV incident or a drunk driving offense. That's alot different than covering up a rape. I think the NFL agrees with me. So you find it odd that Ryan Poles got the Bears job and didn't even bother to interview Bienemy. Poles is a minority and has worked with Bienemy for yrs, yet he chose to pass on Bienemy. Wonder why?
And no 1st overall pick QB had ever taken his team to the Super Bowl in their first 2 years, and then Joe Burrow. That stat is irrelevant, and useless. Will Watson be the guy to break that salary cap stat? I hope not, bc it’s not gonna be with the Texans. I can find a google result to a website claiming all people who are vaccinated will DEVELOP AIDS BY 2022!!!! Ahhhhhh!!! Must be true!!!! Oh no!!! The way you just matter of factly say these things is infuriating, but I’m over it. It’s not my job to correct your ignorance. Carry on with your woke, virtue signaling.
Hey don’t stereotype bro. I loved Deshaun, was my favorite QB of all time before the trade request. Would love him if he was here despite all the weird ****, but once he decide to request a trade, **** him. I also like Davis Mills and think it’s worth giving him a shot next year.
@J.R. Lot of detail went into those posts. I’m a big fan of Mills, because he’s a young talented QB that has potential. I was a huge fan of Watson, then he became overrated by a lot of people here. But was still one of the top young QBs in the game. It’s funny you say the biggest Mills fans are Watson haters, but some of the biggest Mills haters are Watson fanboys after rape allegations and requesting trades. They don’t care about the Texans, they care more about one player. And often times it’s for reasons other than football.
Impressive post but you are overthinking it. None of the guys you mentioned quit on their teams months after signing a monster contract. Watson’s biggest sin is demanding a trade not whatever happened on the massage table. If we are being honest most fans have no moral compass when it comes to what athletes do off the field.
This is really the only problem I have with the Rooney rule. Allen was said to be the next coach for the Saints. He is already coaching for them. Now Eric B has to sit for a sham interview when the Saints next coach is already on staff. I think if a team hires someone on staff they shouldn't have to abide by the Rooney rule.
Watson demanded a trade but he never refused to play. He showed up to training camp, but the Texans chose to keep him isolated from the team. He was eligible to play throughout the entire season, and Texans could've demanded him to play. The fact is that the Texans also don't want Watson because he's not on good terms with Easterby and the owner. Look at how much money Ben Simmons is getting fined by the Sixers for refusing to play (~$19M). Why couldn't the Texans have done the same?
Are you sure he did? If so, show me where he said this? That's my point...everyone assumed this. Watson never said this. And...even if he did, he's under contract. Texans could've fined him to attempt to force him to play. They didn't do this BECAUSE THE TEXANS ALSO DON'T WANT DESHAUN TO PLAY! I'm not saying Watson is 100% blameless (depending on whether the allegations against him are true), but I'm tired of seeing fans place all the blame on Deshuan while ignoring the big issue...CAL MCNAIR and JACK EASTERBY. Those are the 2 culprits behind the destruction of the Texans...not Deshaun. Let's not pretend that Deshaun isn't the only member of the Texans that wanted out. JJ Watt wanted out. Jamey Rootes wanted out. Most of the Texans that have left recently have thrown shade at the Texans for their management issues. And, it is not common for a QB to demand a trade so soon after signing a contract. The blame for that lies on the dysfunctional state of the Texans rather than on Deshaun.
You just made a whole lot of excuses for an accused sexual predator. It was widely reported by multiple outlets that he would never play another down for the Texans, I believe that it was even said by his camp to reporters. You’re bringing up a bunch of stuff for the Texans, he was cool signing that contract and praising Jack and Cal for his contract and less than a 6 months later he’s asking for a trade. Funny how that lines up with a prominent QB being on a yacht in Miami
