So you think that us with Watson will do better than Houston did with Watson? Especially after the damage done in lost personnel/picks?

Go and look how bad the Houston defense was the year they went 4-12. Time of possession would've been lop sided they had the 32nd ranked yards per carry allowed, 27th in total points allowed (384), 29th ranked pass defense. The previous two years Watson made the playoffs and won his division. On our team we would easily be a playoff team with him.

Our defense isn't as good as you think it is.

To add to that, we'd possibly have to include one of our top defensive players in a trade offer, making it even worse.

What makes you think a trade with Houston will allow us to keep key players from that defense?

We won't be better after a trade with Houston.

Anyone who thinks adding a 26 year old top 5 QB to this team doesn't make us better I don't know what to tell you lmao. I'm all for trading for him if it means we just give up picks and not players.

Will it make us better? Sure. But we are still many pieces away from being a constant playoff team. Also what we would be giving up for him would be as valuable as a top young QB on their eyes for the trade to work. Throw in the fact he might not even be allowed to play with the legal issues, it just makes no sense.

We'd obliviously be much better. No one has said anything convincing to the contrary. It's just about their asking price at this point. We'll trade for Watson if we can get a fair deal. Fitt will snap him up. It's the logical thing to do at this point.

Yeah totally agree as long as his charges are drop. I’m all for it then, and if you think this team is no better after winning 5 games and most with Darnold is ludicrous.

There is no guarantee we find a franchise QB within the next several years. These kinds of opportunities don't come along. We aren't going to be high enough to draft a guy which means we would have to do what the 49ers did and trade 3 1sts anyway to move up and grab someone that is unproven unlike Watson. QB purgatory is the worst place to be in the NFL and if you have a chance to get a guy you do it.

People arguing for the trade want it to take place after the legal issue are over. We don't know what we'd have to give up at this point. It's a fluid situation.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.

      How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
