The price may drop for his services via trade, but is it worth it? I guess if we miss out on a QB in the draft Tepper will remain fixated on Watson, unless he is behind bars. I hope he would wait until the truth comes out to try to make any kinds of moves.

Watson should have never signed that contract extension with a racist pos owner running the show. He should have kept his head down played on the tag and hit FA when he could.

FYI: Latest lawsuit filed today includes charges by a second woman alleging that Watson tried to force her to perform oral sex on him.

Also that he forced her to put her hand inside his anus. 
 

I know what they meant but I’m going to assume deshaun is actually a power bottom.

Up to 22 now and one of them says it happened this month and after the allegations.

No way we can touch this now

I don't think anybody can until there's some sort of resolution.

You'd have to be a complete moron to trade for somebody with stuff like this hanging over his head.

Sure did.

Drew Bledsoe was a four time Pro-Bowl player, so he was a very solid NFL QB. At the moment, Watson's stats through the first four years(with less games played than Drew) are mostly ahead of Bledsoe's. Pretty stark differences in efficiency ratings, TD:INT ratio, etc. Comparable at some level but Watson is on a pretty accelerated track to eclipse him and leave him behind.

Hate to throw fire on the discussion as only an occasional lurker, but you'd have to be a complete moron to trade for somebody with this many accusations out there - regardless of whether the league eventually lets him off with some slap on the wrist penalty.

 

"Elitist *sshole" or not, I'd never support an organization that put winning at all costs ahead of the optics of a situation like this. Having to explain to my kid why I wouldn't buy him a Panthers jersey with Watson's name on it shouldn't be a conversation I feel like anyone should ever need to have - and I don't have kids.

 

Watson should have understood how easily situations like this could arise - even if parts of this are overblown - and from an ownership/management standpoint I sure as *ell wouldn't want him around my family and employees who could sue me for millions in the event he's STILL not clear on what acceptable behavior is following this mess.

Even if you could get him for a 7th rounder, you’d still be on the hook for his 10 mill in salary this year.

10 mil for a guy who is most likely going to end up on the exempt list.

Is he worth the cap and PR hit? That’s a tough decision.

Remember, a player still gets paid if they are on the exempt list.

If there’s no trade market, the Texans will have to decide if they want to pay his salary this year or cut him.

      Frank Reich, Ryan Poles get honest about challenges of developing No. 1 pick QB.  *Reich: My handling of offensive system "probably made it more difficult for Bryce (Young)" *Poles: From 24-25. tone changed from bridging Caleb Williams to 'tough love'   https://x.com/jfowlerespn/status/1957857880276705508?s=46

      As bad as AR has been, the Panthers would’ve been better off right now, if they had stayed at #9 in 2023 and picked him instead of doing what they did.  At least this way, they would’ve only wasted one draft pick vs what they gave up to pick BY. And they would have kept the #1 pick in the 2024 draft.

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

      I felt pretty good about us making progress this season, surprising some people, and getting some more wins than last season going into it.  Now, after preseason, my expectations are much, much lower. I was talking with my friend who is a Bears fan, and we were discussing their drubbing of the Bills and how people try to dismiss it as “preseason, so it doesn’t count.”  It absolutely counts.  Not the wins or losses.  No one really cares about that.  But what the Bears are doing shows that even in a vanilla, non-specific scheme, they are executing at an elite level and they are disciplined.  It shows they are well coached.  They see growth in their players.  Versus us - hard to tell what we’re looking at because everything is a fuging mess.  In games we’re still undisciplined, be it penalties or assignments.  We do NOT execute.  We got random coaches calling plays that won’t be calling plays during the season, we have our players getting into fights in the last padded practice of the preseason, then we have Bryce and Chuba trying to correct it while our coach sat off to the side laughing.  To be clear, I like Canales.  He seems like a good dude.  But, it feels like we have very little direction and discipline.  You’re allowing a team who has been historically bad the last almost decade, with a losing culture that mostly bereft of talent to self-police?  You’re allowing subordinates to work in pet projects at the expense of getting valuable reps and evaluation of players in during games?     My friend literally brought up last night that when Ben Johnson got there he essentially put DJ Moore in notice because it was starting to be perceived that he was displaying some diva-behavior.  That’s leadership.  And they’re reaping the benefits early and setting a tone.  My friend said there is an excitement and confidence in and around their team that’s he’s never felt his entire life.  And here we are, sounding and looking like The Bad News Bears in our final week of training camp and preseason.  I literally stopped watching after halftime last week.  I used to watch every play faithfully, even in 2001 and 2010.  It was fun.  This isn’t.  We are bad and our administration keeps making bad decisions to compound things.  Reading poo like this today is just fuging deflating.
