ESPN Predicts Watson to be the Panthers starter in 2021

Right, but there have been reports that Miami isn’t moving on from Tua. He can’t go to Miami is they don’t want him.

In context though, the current situation is that the Texans aren't trading him.

Do the Dolphins still say they want to stick with Tua if that situation changes?

From the article above...

They’re a popular team on his personal wish list and have the draft capital to pull it off.

I'd rather have Watson than Tua so I'd offer Tua and a couple of picks for the better and more sure thing QB.

Interesting point. Them benching Tua during games this year is a tad concerning, but the reports were talking about how Flores and the GM believe in Tua. Of course, Rhule said the same for Cam...

Which highlights another aspect of that scenario.

Besides draft picks, the Dolphins can also offer a starter quality quarterback in return.

Would be great if the Panthers ever ended up with a bunch of draft picks for sucking poo.

We never even get to trade our good players...hope this is one of the many changes with the new regime going forward.

Watson is open to waiving his no-trade clause in his $156 million contract extension signed in September.

The Carolina Panthers, led by owner David Tepper and coach Matt Rhule, covet Watson.

...

As for the Texans, nothing has changed since chairman Cal McNair drew a line in the stand about Watson again last Friday when he said in telephone interview: “Deshaun is a Texan, and he’s going to be a Texan.”

If the Texans remain dug in on not trading Watson, then he’s not expected to report and would incur hefty fines. That would include $95,877 for missing a mandatory minicamp, $50,000 per day for every day of training camp missed, and $620,000 for each regular-season game missed.

...

The Texans have been firm in their desire to not trade Watson even though he isn’t returning telephone calls and text messages intended to sell them on their vision for a new leadership structure of general manager Nick Caserio and coach David Culley.

“Our quarterback is under contract,” a team source said. “He is going to be our quarterback.”

...

Great stuff, thanks.

The guy who wants out caves on the no-trade-clause...who knew?!?

No mention of Fitterer, hmm.  There's a lead horse here, look for the spotted coat... 😎

2nd time today I've seen the subject of fines discussed...while not mandatory, OTA's aren't too far off.

Texans certainly do appear resolute...

You literally cannot post a single article with any of the details of the nature of the discussions with the Texans or what was said or how it was said or anything of the sort.

Exactly.  Gentlemanly negotiations done in private and respectfully don't generate "a single article".  JJ's video is a clear window into how it went down, you're blind.

Going MIA, demanding a trade, refusing to return phone calls & emails, threatening to sit out, posting cryptic twitter blips, etc...

...this is the sort of selfish, low-road/low-rent aberrant behavior which generates a media firestorm of speculation --- the vast majority of it with no basis in fact!!

Texans made the guy the 2nd highest paid QB in the entire NFL and this is how he thanks them...

...clearly someone is giving a good kid some very bad advice.

    • I can say that I have defended Canales because I get that they are doing all they can to keep from looking like idiots for drafting Bryce, from the trade up to signing $150m guards to drafting XL and Brooks etc---nothing seems to work.  And Hiring Canales was part of the Bryce Young rehab program, so so he can't really decide to "move on."  That has to come from Morgan and Tepper. Personally, I think Bryce is due for an injury.  He is small, he is not thick, and he has been a LOT more healthy than most any other QB has who has endured so much pressure.  The thing that bothers me is this---Bryce really does not go through his progressions quickly.  He locks on to his presnap read and stays locked onto him for too long--he seems to fail to anticipate the WR/TE's positioning on the play before the cut--for example, if the WR is running a dig and the CB has his back to the inside of the field, he should be open for a second or less just after the cut.  He seems to wait until the cut has been made before deciding, then checking down quickly while moving in the pocket. OL:  There seems to be a lack of communication--is that on Mays?  Watch this team presnap--they seem a bit confused at times.   I can almost predict the success rate of the play by watching the center and QB before the snap.  
    • Anyone else remember back in 2010 when Fox piloted having music under the in-game replays during one of Carolina's games? Not the commercial bumpers but the actual replay clips that the announcers would talk over. Pretty sure it was vs the 49ers. And it was terrible. Point being, Carolina continues being so bad that we get the networks trying things out during their games.
    • Is it bad I found this video more hilarious than pathetic? I am still laughing at that one play where half the people on the field ran into each other and Bryce still couldn't see Chuba wide open... Also laughing at Cade blocking nobody and somehow losing his cleat Man this offense is a poo show
