Deshaun Watson: a closer look

Here’s a little bit of what I have reviewed from the film on Watson. I’ve watched every snap from Houston’s first three games. This is just an appetizer, three plays that really jumped out as remarkably special.

Not being a negative Nancy, just being realistic. This is a big step up in terms of level of competition for the Panthers defense. Really intrigued to see how this all plays out on Sunday.

Agree. I got a close look at his development down here in the upstate with Clemson. He’s a cut above most guys. The accuracy stands out. Especially under pressure. Not only game situation pressure, but actual physical blitz pressure.

I still couldnt believe during draft time,  he sooo over looked. I had him as the best QB and just behind Garrett.  Watson is more than ready to take over once the the old guard leaves. Plus I know Hahomes is alll the rage now. If Andy Reid took Watson instead, he'd be putting up similar video game numbers along with being a bigger running threat.

If Jackson is out I think we lose. They have one of the best wr corps in the league. Then you got Watson who uses his legs with surgical fashion. The only way I see we pull out a win is if Allen has another great performance and the D scores somehow. I'm not feeling too good about our chances. But at the same time I know they do so much better away than at home. It's crazy.

    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.  
    • Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.  
    • I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
