 So u have a problem about people complaining in this thread just to complain yourself, makes sense.

Go away.  You are 25% of the volume on this thread and .03% of the meaningful content.  You are noise.

Watson to Atlanta does make some sense. Houston would probably end up with Ryan as a bridge or stopgap, a top five pick this year to take a young QB or other top talent, other picks and players as well. Watson would then go home to Georgia and be the hometown hero. Atlanta gets to reload with a top young QB on a long term contract and sell a ton of jerseys and other merch.

If that was to happen, this place would have a meltdown of epic proportions.

If Atlanta gives up 3 #1s it would set them back for yrs

They're going to want 2nds and 3rds likely too. It's hard to build through the draft if you are devoid of talent. If he's forcing his way out of Houston, with no picks for 3 years, when his contract expires he could force his way out of here too, even with a tag. I think the guy is immensely talented but giving up players and a lot of picks is just going to keep us spinning in the mud.

You're right about Watson being talented and giving up picks and players will leave the team spinning its wheels. Washington traded three firsts years ago to take a QB. Houston is going to want at least that in picks and then whatever else they can get.

scot is the only one of those three actually invested in being right

Yeah, that is fair.  UNLESS they are the same person!!

Let that sink in....

Kidding--he is often the voice of reason, so the unreasonable attack those ideas that do not align with their own logic.  Instead of appreciating an alternative perspective, they attack him in a temper tantrum.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
