Randy Mueller: The definitive analysis/interview re: the Deshaun Watson situation.

I mean this “make him play” poo is dumb. If he REALLY wants no part of it and they are forcing him to play (which seems ridiculous) then all he has to do is start throwing picks or fumbling snaps. I mean come on. They can’t MAKE him play a sport. If the legal poo dies down he may decide it’s in HIS best interest to play and play well. That however is a different story….

OP has a weird fetish involving rich owners forcing players to perform. It’s a dying formula… GB tried that with Rodgers and had to have an emergency meeting with stakeholders, rework his contract (where now they may get NOTHING for him next year) and have him involved in franchise decisions like bringing in Cobb. Julio just asked for a trade and got it. Watt just asked to be released and was. Teams don’t want players on their roster who don’t want to be there. It terrible for the team morale and the locker room. Houston is holding their cards close hoping the legal poo gets settled so they can get a king’s random for Watson. It’s not a terrible decision really…

Of course they can't make him play.

They can however force him to make a decision on whether or not he wants to collect the monies involved in that massive $150M+ contract...

...everything in life involves tradeoffs -- no play, no pay.

If he's so determined to never play for the Texans again why did he show up for camp?

And what if he fumbles every snap?

Has he even practiced with the team this off season?

As i said before im not ruling anything out, a lot hindges on how darnold does. If he stinks it up with a legit supporting cast around him Tepper is gonna start throwing those brass balls around. Doesnt matter what anybody else thinks, he wants the team winning as soon possible and that would be strike 2 on rhule camp fumbling the qb situation. There won't be a third. If you don't want watson here, you better hope darnold fixes his issuses fast and someone else trades for watson before then. Unless any of those things happen he will continue to be linked here.

Right, but the reports I’ve seen have him showing up but not actually practicing. 
 

https://texanswire.usatoday.com/2021/08/25/texans-training-camp-practice-deshaun-watson/

He's on the 53-man roster and available to play.  

In fact, he's obligated to play if he wants to collect on the $150M++ of funds specified in his contract...

...I doubt the Texans want to pay him $30 million to stand around on the sidelines --- because make no mistake about   it...

...he is an active member of the 53-man final roster.  

Let me put it another way, what team would stall for 9-months and then spring it on everyone they expect Mr. Whip It Out to play?!?

Nobody but the Texans right?!?

3.  If Deshaun wants to get paid this year he's going to have to play.

I don't see him playing. He hasn't even been practicing to my knowledge.

Texans are paying him to be on the roster. Right now it's part of the 53, but it could be on an exempt list at some future point in the season. Basically, they are paying millions this season for future 1st round draft picks.

    • I think the same thing, they don’t have any better options especially since Christiansen is out for the year 
    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
