Yeah let's be real with the timeline. He went on vacation in the middle of the GM search and Cal claims that he attempted to reach Watson about the GM hire and couldn't. The whole "Cal broke his word on keeping Watson in the loop" story is weak.
This right here. I'm a fan. That means I have selfish desires as a fan. What good does it do for me as a fan that Watson leaves?
Should’ve just hired whatever coach Deshaun wanted period. How can you **** this up this bad? **** cal that sleepy headed fat ****.
bc he deserves better. when you see a franchise guy like that in a situation that puts him in a better situation to succeed, that's what you cheer for. The alternative being cheering for a shitty organization like the texans? Pass, why anyone chooses to support that. shrugs
You guys can simp for Watson all you want, but he's proving he doesn't care about you at all as he's actively harming the franchise......and my simp friends, you guys are proving that you don't care about the franchise at all, so when the franchise lands another star player to build around, I don't want to see any of you simps coming back around looking for nuts to hug.
It really is. The specific training is releasing a lot of hidden talent. In my field, we do a lot of testing, but it’s just a tool to alter training accordingly.
He requested the trade "weeks ago" and made it clear through leaks to multiple media people that the HC would have no impact on his desire to leave.
It took 20 years for this team to get a true top 5 elite franchise QB. A guy who has been nothing but a squeaky clean solid citizen and somehow this dumpster fire brain dead organization manages to screw it up enough that he demands a trade. Think about this. In less than a year in total this team has or will trade the best 3 players in franchise history. Hopkins, Watson, and you know Watt will be next very soon. We are witnessing one of the ugliest team teardowns in NFL history. I don’t even have words to describe it. Unbelievable
Deserves? Dude lives the most lavish lifestyle that is possible on this planet. That's his compensation. That's what he deserves and it's a lot.
The one and only thing the Texans have in their favor is Watson can be docked his game check for every game he sits out in the regular season, and he has to play by week 11 to accrue a year of service time on his contract.
all you do is whine in jealousy bc I guess you're broke. you think your problems are his. they're not.
thats fair, but you came across a petty, immature dude yourself if thats what you hate about Deshaun and his handling of this situation. Im not calling you out in conflict, just stating that emotions are going crazy - some of us may say some things we regret later and I agree Deshaun could have done this better, but if you dont respect the people you work for what do you do? Most of us would quit right? But some of you guys want him to complete his indentured servitude and ruin his chance to dictate his happiness. Seems pretty obvious that $$$ is not the primary goal in D4s life - it will be interesting to see how far he's willing to go if the team plays hardball, but it will eventually end in his trade - no matter how ugly or clean it gets done - its over.
It's not just money in that sense. It also means that other teams might be hesitant to aquire someone who sits out that long and he's hurting his legacy stats as he's missing precious time during his prime years to build his legacy.
Yeah that's the problem with the narrative, reality doesn't match up with it. Watson was dead set on taking the franchise down, there was no pacifying him. He saw what Harden did and wanted to do it himself.
Yeah the alternative is cheering for a mediocre franchise. Yep. That's part of sports fandom is the team you are a fan of can disappoint you. I get it. Being a player only fan is easier. You can just root for someone who is good and wins until they aren't good and don't win and then pick another one.
300 lb dudes running sub 5 40s is scary if you are on the receiving end of that collision. No doubt leading to more concussions along the way.
