Does Deshaun play defense? Does Deshaun work on the tackling drills with the linebackers? Does Deshaun scheme up the secondary coverages?
If we would've kept Hopkins (who was under contract for multiple more years), we would be in the playoff race.
Maybe you should stop making excuses for crappy ownership and management. Because if they traded Deshaun tomorrow for fill in the blank, they'd still have idiotic ownership and people running the show who aren't football people.
Russel Wilson has a defense that is literally worse than the Texans, gets sacked as much, is in the toughest division in the league and is a legit Super Bowl contender.
But I also think Trevor Lawrence is enough of a gamble in an ideal world to start the blowup with. And I actually think Watson can lead a team to a ring, just not this one anytime soon.
In 2012 the Washington Football Team traded 3 Firsts and a 2nd for Robert Griffin III. That's the bare minimum starting point, so no I wouldn't trade him for 2 firsts, even if I knew it was the first overall pick.
I was just throwing a for instance. Watson is obviously light years better than RG3 (and a large chunk of the league) I’m just saying I don’t think we can fill a team around him. And I don’t think he can put a team on his back as much as some of his peers.
No doubt, he’s also a defensive coach with the worst defense in the league. Is O’Brien still here? What’s record since he’s been fired?
I think Russell Wilson is a better QB than Deshaun. But Wilson is a stud. You can't blame Deshaun for the Texans situation. Your frustration is misguided.
I agree and you’re putting words in my mouth. I didn’t say it was his fault but also not saying he’s without fault.
If your argument is focused on the Texans not being able to field talent due to cap concerns only I see your point completely.
I agree with you man. But he doesn’t get the benefit of the doubt with that contract. It’s not fair, I agree. But it is what it is.
I would ride with Watson if I knew we could get a team together. I don’t think we can. If I were offered Lawrence and multiple picks-essentially a do over with the contract. Id take that and hope for the best. With the realization it could really come back to bite you in the ass, I believe Watson has that potential. The problem is he isn’t there.....yet. But being compensated like he is.
