You may not be meaning to, but it’s coming off that way. Again, no one knows what happened. Right now it’s just people’s words. At the every least though this shows a severe lack of judgement that I don’t think  you want your franchise QB having. People are free to do what they want in their private lives, but putting yourself in a situation like this just seems dumb as hell.

Okay well let me change the tone here..

The fact he is even in this situation is dumb as fug on his part.. And shows a severe lack of judgement... That he has to take a hit for regardless of guilt or innocence...

After the Kobe incident in Colorado I would think these dumbass athletes would learned to have cameras, Witnesses and signed MDA on all interactions of this nature..  Or at the least you have the money get a professional escorts...

At this point he can't be the face of our franchise being this dumb..

So ... if they don't have good enough "credentials", it makes what he does ok? I hope that's not what you're saying.

It makes some of the cases seem consensual... Is what I'm saying.. Him using his name and power to make "trained and certified professionals" question his motives is predatory behavior... Being a playboy with Instagram models is regular rich athlete behavior and not crime... And the fact that none of this went to the police 1st is questionable.. Is all I'm saying.

If 14+ women are accusing him of pretty much the same thing then to me that is proof.  I know it’s sketchy in a court of law but if a dozen or so have the same story then I am believing them.  One or two then I would want a ton more info but this many........

That’s not proof. They are going to need something more substantial along with the testimony of all of these women.

Starting to read the reports from Watson’s side. One is a sworn affidavit stating that the person is aware that it is a blackmail attempt.

Yeah. The fact that one of these women tried to blackmail him already could make this case go up in flames

Not good IMO if the narrative is now shifting to, “well I did have sexual encounters, but it was consensual.” This is a lot to overcome in the court of public opinion. At the very least it shows bade judgment, at worst he is a predator.

She’s not credible and knows nothing

The one plaintiff they have been able to identify so far they have evidence she tried to blackmail him for 30 grand for her silence about consensual sex. 

I think people are judging to quickly. I’m not saying either side is right, just everyone has pretty much already said Watson is guilty.

    • Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.
    • What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.
