He's been more in the know for Houston sports longer than you've been alive. He's just saying what you don't want to hear. If he was saying "I think a trade should be coming soon" you would be spamming this board with him.

Everyone has said that he is not in the know as he used to be don’t poop on the messenger lol.

IMO if I'm Tepp and Fitt I throw one last hail mary in early April and if that doesn't go well then I immediately call the Dolphins and start discussing the number 3 pick.

We can’t get three if Houston ends up with it.

I think what’s weird and cool at the same time is I’ve really only noticed us being the only NFC people talk about trading for him, I mean I heard a little Bears and 49ers at first but that is quiet now just us.  Also what if Jets don’t want to trade Darnold, and I really don’t think Miami is ready to move on for Tua. Also Texans can get him out of AFC I really think we are favorites.

McClain is a local radio host.  I doubt he has any inside info on whether or not the Texans would trade for Bridgewater.

McClain is one of the Texans beat writers for the Houston Chronicle. He's covered them pretty much since their inception.

The Chronicle's other guy is Aaron Wilson, the guy who used to be the Ravens Insider.

Dude come on now, of course he has sources.  He is an incredibly respected journalist. 

So Houston doesn't want to trade Watson, but they are talking about who they don't want in a trade.  Makes sense

If this really is inside information, it means they are considering trading him to us...which is actually good news if you are wanting Watson. If they are considering it, Tepper is going to make it hard to say no. If you you really think Bridgewater is going to make a deal fall apart if we give them enough other pieces, then you are fooling yourselves. If they want a QB, there are QBs to be had out there that are better than TB that they can get for one of the picks we send them.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
