Deshaun Watson: 'More accurate, faster, elusive than Cam Newton'

so says Joe Theismann

"I think he has a chance to be MVP of the league this year," former quarterback Joe Theismann said in a telephone interview. "I thought he was off to a terrific start last year. He has a rare combination of athleticism and ability to work from the pocket.

He's more accurate than Cam Newton, faster than Cam Newton, more elusive than Cam Newton."

Can't be more accurate, faster, and more elusive than Cam Newton if you aren't on the field. Dude started a whopping 6 games last year. Already missed more games in his rookie season than Cam has in his entire 7 year career. Everyone needs to take it easy on the Deshaun Watson hype.

Watson looked impressive in his limited outings last year but this is just hyperbole.

Slightly off topic, but I was once on a plane with Joe Theisman, both of us in first class. When the plane pulled up to the gate, we both headed straight to the nearest Men's room and peed. Joe didn't wash his hands.

Let him play a full season first. I think he has the potential to be a better passer than Cam but Cam is a very strong runner and bigger and stronger than Watson

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
