Division winners at 11-5 and 10-6 in two of his three full seasons wasn't good enough for you? I'd take it. 

1 win in the playoffs.  Since the golden days the Texans and Watson have been Meh.  They got old and Watson got whiny and horny.

So yeah, we should totally just give up on trying to acquire a superstar QB, because they obviously cannot win games all by themselves.

Do all the teams that want him know something about these cases? Also, do analyst and others like Schefter know something as well? Everything being reported is as if what he’s going through will blow over. Espn and nfln rarely mention the cases and talk as if nothing is wrong. Would an owner be willing to part with so much capital and be this adamant about acquiring him without knowing something we don’t? It just seems so odd to me.

Nope. Not what I'm saying. I would like a rookie under a cheap contract become a superstar QB.  I would like to keep valuable assets like high draft picks and cap room.  Then there is the sticky situation of bad press.  Didn't our former owner get ran out for some stuff like Watson is accused of.   To turn around and bring Watson in makes us look like hypocrites.

It sounds to me that there is very little evidence of major wrong doing....at least that's my hunch.

Money talks and bullshit walks.  The legal system is different for the mega rich.

Im sure they do.  These are billion dollar enterprises with access to whatever they want.  Im sure every interested party has hired private investigators, lawyers, analysts and whatever else money can buy to get as much intel as humanly possible on the situation.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion)

      By fanpanther · Posted

      This is a good take it really is to the point dc needs to let the world see the real byoung b/c right now everyone in the media and tepper has had blinders on when it comes to young.  Its hard to even know where the panthers are at skill player wise with such horrible qb play.  I doubt it but legette may be a probowl wr he just cant throw the ball and catch it.  I am just so sick of every excuse in the book for byoung.  LIstened to a podcast and the guy was going over how many different options byoung had on the int and all of them were ok except for the one where he threw an int.  He said the play could be run by a hs qb and they would typically make a good decision.

      We have a Dave Canales Problem

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I certainly have my complaints about Canales but I'm not ready to fire him yet for a couple of reasons. First and foremost, Tepper has made this one of the least appealing jobs in the league. Morgan and Canales are here to begin with in large part because guys higher on the wish list take other jobs. If you fire Canales you're gonna end up replacing him with another third tier candidate who wasn't being seriously considered by other teams with openings. That's just the reality of the situation right now as far as I can tell. Secondly, despite plenty of room for critique, we are 6-6 despite the worst QB play in the league. That's really damn hard to pull off in the modern NFL. Especially when your D isn't dominant. Our D is greatly improved but is still a slightly below average overall defense ranking 18th in yards per game allowed and 20th in points allowed. Going 6-6 with atrocious QB play and slightly below average defensive play is pretty damn impressive. Even more impressive when you also factor in that we're in the red on turnovers differential at -3. When you combine league worst QB play with slightly below average D and negative turnover differential honestly you'd expect to be in play for the #1 overall pick, not 6-6 and having just played a game that a win would have you leading the division. So yeah, even though I'm far from sold I advocate for patience with Canales for the time being. If you ask me if I'm bringing him back next year, I'm a yes barring a catastrophic meltdown down the stretch which admittedly is very much a possibility.
