Report: Deshaun Watson wants out of Houston, no matter who the coach is

[WarHeel]

I might be in the minority in this but I hope this doesn’t become a trend in the NFL. I don’t know what happened in Houston and not saying Watson is or isn’t justified in wanting to leave. 

With that said...I’ve stopped watching NBA altogether due to the ever growing trend in players dictating where they play and who they play with. It sucks the fun out of the competition for me. Prima donnas creating super teams and chasing rings just doesn’t carry the same excitement as the organic experience that there use to be.
 

Just my opinion, poo away if you’d like.

If Bienemy passes up this job, I guarantee you that he'll get an opportunity at another HC gig! 

If you think about it for a minute (incompetent ownership aside) if you were going to be a first time head coach and Watson does jet then this may not be as bad a situation as it looks.  You would definitely be rebuilding with a butt load of picks to build with.  You would certainly be drafting first overall next year with another first in your pocket.  It all depends on Watson though.

So he’s pissed because he wanted the Texans to interview Bienemy and they didn’t, but now that they did, he’s still pissed and wants out? I’m not saying that this is the case, but these facts suggest this has all been a ploy to force his way out of Houston.

Houston just needs to burn it all down and come back as the Oilers.

This IMO guaranteed he’s traded. That is probably why his camp leaked this.

No HC is taking that job unless Texans agree to trade Watson.

I agree.  This idea that they are going to look worse if they don't trade him is stupid, they all ready look really bad.  Letting Watson and some other team fleece them would only add to that.

Watson has enough leverage to force himself out, but he doesn't have enough leverage to force them to only accept an offer from one team.  Once you have multiple teams the price goes up.

 

 

No trade clause. It must be amicable. So IF its the Panthers, its the Panthers.

But ownership has a proven record of just being bad. That's my only thing.

I think Watson can’t stand that snake Easterby and thinks McNair is an idiot for letting Easterby in his inner circle. No way to fix ownership so it’s best to move on.

Panthers don’t have the draft capital, cap space, or resources to trade for Watson. If he goes anywhere, it’ll be the Jets or Dolphins.

Yes, eventually that better opportunity will come. If he takes the Houston job, and stumbles due to a bad situation, and gets canned in 3 years, then he will struggle to get another opportunity.

Yep, it's a situation just waiting for a "loser" IMO.

Yes. I feel like this isn’t stated enough, he has more leverage than ppl think. If they don’t trade him, he sits out, at least with a trade Texans will get something rather than nothing. He has the say where he goes, if we give a decent offer AND he wants to come here, he’s here.

Teddy can go to the Texans as player-coach. Win win

#8 and a player or two. That solves the QB problem.
