His trade value and options just dropped. If there’s anything Tepper knows is how to buy on the dip. These charges will be dismissed 

OP should clarify this is a civil lawsuit, not criminal which makes it seem more like a money grab.

Wow, this reeks. The timing, the lawyer and the connections. If this turns out to be what it looks like, can anything splash back on McNair?

Maybe Watson has some issues and that deserves space to develope, it just reeks of BS and more terribleness out of Houston.

The rumor is this guy and McNair are neighbors and friends.

I saw this last night and declined to post on it due to no substantiation whatsoever. It just flies in the face of everything that I've read about Watson, and the timing is suspiciosly right on time by a questionable character who apparently has a relationship with an owner with suspect character. I'd bet that there's nothing to this at the end of the day.

it's not just rumor. Buzbee was Bob McNair's neighbor. 

Kinda raises the question why the offered settlement was only 6 figures. If you're trying to shakedown Watson, you'd think you'd go for a little higher number. 

If it turns out that this was a coordinated smear.....woo lad

If that is the case he should be barred from the league and forced to sell.

the Texans forum is a mess. Some posts saying cal set this up, some saying deshaun himself set this up as far as his comments about “extreme measures” to get out of HOU, others saying deshaun definitely did it because he hung out with a pornstar that one time (wut). This is ugly.

False accusers need to get punishment as well in my opinion.  Even if it's eventually proven that the accused did nothing wrong the whirling poo storm caused by those types of accusations doesn't just poof into non-existence . 

It’s a slippery slope. Then you get victims afraid they will lose the case and remain silent or worse get out lawyered by a rich person and get punishment as well as the assault that happened...

      Preseason Week 3 - vs. Pittsburgh (practice tweets, discussion, etc)

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      They had best show out in Week 1 there are zero,I mean zero,  excuses for that offense  defense, haven’t play together yet and they still have Mr Soft and Predictable as DC  I expect break downs at times  …but that offense returns all starters except Tremble and both Mayes and Brady are veterans and can play LG and know the system not up for any participation awards this season they can save that practice energy for Jacksonville.     I’m sick of the, winning,  or looking competitive, when it doesn’t matter.

      There are some tough decisions that I'm eager to see the results of... Does Blackshear sneak on to the roster as RB4? Does the team go with 4 TEs or just 3 again? And has Mitchell Evans done enough to defend his roster spot from James Mitchell? Who is WR6 and is there a WR7? TMac, XL, Coker, and AT seem to be locks imo and I'm assuming Renfrow also makes it due to all of the camp praise. Who makes it between Brycen Tremayne, Jimmy Horn Jr, and David Moore? If the team goes with 7 WRs, which one of those three doesn't make it? Jacolby George and Emani Bailey both have not gotten a lot of game time. Could the Panthers be trying to hide them so that they can be stashed on the PS? Do they go with 10 OL instead of 9? Who makes it out of Walton, Carter, and Kingston? DL locks are DB, BB3, ARob, and Turk. That leaves Jaden Crumedy, Cam Jackson, Sam Roberts, Shy Tuttle, and LaBryan Ray all competing for the final 1 - 3 spots. Does DJ Johnson get IR'd and Thomas Incoom make the roster as EDGE5? What in the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck is going to happen at LB? Only locks are Wallace, Rozeboom, and Cherelus (Wallace has mentioned in media how Cherelus has been big bro for him on the team) seem to be locks. Rhattigan had some good moments against Houston, Martin-Scott is an SC guy, Krys Barnes has popped on defense and on special teams, and Windmon got time starting for the team last season. Are two of those guys going to make it or are the Panthers poaching from another team's cuts? CB5... who is it? Do they go with the 4 expected safeties or bring in a 5th? Has Ransom done enough to take the start from Nick Scott?

      I had this discussion with my buddy yesterday afternoon. If we start this season very slow(especially with the schedule being what it is) and then "rally" in the second half to get to 4-7 wins, I am already gonna be pretty heated at the staff overall. I know we are a very bad roster but I am not gonna keep excusing these slow season starts WITH late season rallies. That's a coaching staff problem, IMO. It's more excusable to just stink gate to gate, IMO. At least you can understand why.
