I have this strange feeling that Watson will be our starting QB for the next 12 years.  And yes, anything we give up will be worth it

Watson will be the TD, passing, and wins (reg season and playoffs) leader in Carolina by the time he hangs them up.

 

And he will be holding up a Lombardi trophy before it’s all said and done

Smartest move Texans can do is get rid of him while is value is high. Watson price plummets for Texans the longer this goes on ... and at the point I think Watson is Carolinas too lose ... 

only plummets after the draft.   Stock probably can inch higher until then.

Im not sure I can get behind this being good for Houston.  Is it really better if you were questioning if he would play for you again vs being told to your face he isn’t playing for you?  

Whether it's actually going to turn out good for Houston? No idea.

That they see him talking to them as a positive as opposed to him not even answering their calls? Probably.

The Texans are going to lessen his trade value if they refuse to entertain offers until he starts sitting out actual activities.  You can't try to force someone like this to play ... even if they call his bluff it'll be terrible for the new coach.  Better to build with a bounty of draft picks and good young players.

If they truly are committed to not trading him, then hanging on to him long enough for interested teams to go in other directions makes sense.

And if he's committed to not playing for them (which it certainly seems like is the case), all they'd be doing is shooting themselves in the foot. There will never be a shortage of interested teams. The price will just go down. Texans just hurt themselves by playing hardball, considerably more than Watson would hurt himself by sitting out for an extended period of time if he truly won't ever play for Houston again.

There will always be a market for Watson, even after the draft.  But the market will be hottest before it... barring something exceptional (like a team going all in this year having a catastrophic QB injury in training camp)

      Is Charlotte the worst sports city right now?

      By Seltzer · Posted

      Dude you have no idea what you're talking about. Best place to live?  LMAO... that's your criteria...  Charlotte gets put all over those lists too... come on man... and those lists have zero to do with sports. I'm done after this bc I'm punching down intellectually here... The Panthers have been bad for 6 years now. You are obviously young and not overly educated based off the "dunks" you're putting out there that certainly are, so let me educate you today on the Panthers. The Panthers sold out for well over a decade straight. BOA has been as good an environment as there is when the team is good.  Fan support for the Panthers has been incredible when the team has even remotely reciprocated. The idea that Charlotte doesn't support the Panthers is utter BS. People in Raleigh have the biggest little brother syndrome of all time... Nobody outside of the Triangle cares about any of your "vaunted" sports team outside of Duke-UNC in basketball on a national scale. Sure, the Canes are great. But nationally, the WWE dwarfs the NHL in ratings. More people care about Cody Rhodes than Sebastian Aho... or anyone else in the NHL for that matter... I doubt less than 5% of anyone in this state outside of Raleigh even knows who that is... that's a knock on Aho who is a great player, it's just the NHL barely makes a ripple in the overall hierarchy of American sports. It's not in the same universe as the NFL or NBA no matter how badly you want to tell yourself otherwise. Raleigh is not a big-time sports city, no matter how much you want to scream into the abyss about it. Neither is Charlotte. But no one here is making such a nonsense argument... LOL it's good to be young and to be ignorant enough to be confidently wrong... WTF are you even on this board though since Charlotte is so beneath you? There is an actual discussion board on this very site for Raleigh sports since they are so superior...  Maybe it's bc I'm watching Idiocracy with my son, but your timing is perfect, my man... The dumbest among us have become the most confidence in their ignorance... God Bless America!!

      You do know the biggest military base in the US is located just an hour from Raleigh in Fort Bragg right? Military families are family oriented. A hour drive to games is nothing compared to traveling 3 hours to Charlotte.   Cmon man there is nothing happening in Western Carolina other than Charlotte. I only go west for outdoor activities and some nature/mountain views.

      Okay, who is coming. And how hard is it going to be to get tickets? I’m currently living in Germany a couple hours north of Munich. Happy to help facilitate a cheaper experience for help getting tickets lol.
