    Its ridiculous that u would take the front office every single time. Remember your "wait til next season to make judgement bs". I think i spent last few seasons argugin with u of how sht BoB is, but u would suck BoB dck until the very end, regardless of the sht trades and moves. Honestly any criticism from u about watson is just laughable.

    The front office has been incompetent as sht, yet u defend it regardless.

    I'd love to take this seriously, but not only is it inaccurate to the point of being outright dishonest, it looks like it was written by an angry 12 year old child that needs to focus on school a LOT more.

    I've been highly critical of the front office and I was calling for BOB to be fired for years now....so I'm not sure what you think you gain by lying about that.

    The fact that the FO has made numerous mistakes does not defend your hero Watson....he's still a scumbag for his actions. Making a long term commitment to a franchise and fanbase only to stab them all in the back a few months later is not something that a decent person does, it's simply inexcusable behavior.

    Neither of them are coaches or the GM, so neither of them would have anything to do with the future being bright or not.

    Watson's b**** fits on the other hand, have quite a bit to do with the future. If he was a better person, the Texans would have a bright future....instead he's garbage as a human, so the future looks dicey.

    Lol, man your in your feelings big time. Direct that same energy to the right people. Just what leads you to believe this organization can create a bright future?

    Yeah the owner and guy in charge have nothing to do with the future at all

    when people are out there saying how bad they are, it keeps people from wanting to come here

    sure people will still come for money, but this will definitely turn people away and has people wanting to leave

    By that logic, Robert Craft is the reason the Patriots won, not Belichick, not Brady..... do you really expect people to believe that?

    I get that's the propaganda being put out by Watson, but the players, coaches, and GM is what determines if a team wins, not the guy who merely writes the checks.

    Kraft was smart enough to hire Belichek and Keep Brady happy for years.

    And where would they have been if Brady quit on the team?

    If Brady had demanded complete control over the team like Watson did, would we blame Kraft for it?

    Again, there's absolutely no defense for Watson's actions, anyone who would act that way just a few months after committing long term is a POS. The Patriots got lucky their face of the franchise was a better person than what the Texans ended up with.

    Brady didn’t have to. Belichek knew what the hell he was doing.And Kraft knew enough to step back and let football professionals make football decisions.

    So players can’t sign the deals and still want to be moved because they are breaking a “commitment”?

    like seriously??

    So where’s all the outrage when teams try and lock players up below market value or cut players whenever they want to save money?

    acting like athletes are the only ones who have to “honor their commitment” is a flat out joke. Teams don’t care for one second about “honoring the commitments”. Why should ANY player??

    He signed one if the biggest extentions in NFL history 4 months ago...

    He didn't have to do that. That alone should make you somewhat geeatful for the franchise and the fans who provide the revenue to make it happen.

    It’s discouraging that most of the folks with strong opinions about this topic don’t seem to be aware of or refuse to accept basic realities about the NFL.

    There is very little that the owners can do short of making it impossible for either the player or team to not trade a player for a set amount of time.

    At the end of the day the only thing the Texans can do is hope they change his mind and that clearly isn’t happening. The Texans will not want to QB leading their team that does not want to be on their team. The Texans will also get tired of all of the negative media attention surrounding the organization until he is traded.

    Elite players signing contract extensions only mean an organization will get some return if the player is traded down the line. The Texans will get more in a trade because he signed an extension.

    What the Texans will do is assassinate Watson’s character so fans shift the blame away from their inept ownership to Deshaun Watson. That will take the heat off of them for awhile.

    Okay and what does that get the Texans? Do they really want a QB leading their team that doesn’t like the organization, doesn’t believe it will win and wants to be somewhere else? Also it isn’t like they will win 12 games next year and he may change his mind.

    At the end of the day he is gone.

    Why can't we just be reasonable and say that both parties are unreasonable?

    The fact that Texans origination is porky run doesn't excuse Watson signing a mega extention months ago already knowing the culture of the team.

    You are ignoring Watson's desire like any other superstar player to build a legacy. How many seasons is he willing to miss in his prime years missing out out on racking yards and tds to keep pace with his peers like Allen and Mahomes?
