I will be honest--If DW does not want Carolina, we should not want him.  Take the hint and start building the OLine and Dline,  Let's see what Darnold does with protection--he has never really had it---and let's move on.  Not quitting, but I am not worrying about it...we do not want to trade a king's ransom for an unhappy camper.

He isn’t going to do anything with protection because he’s a bad football player

So what if Houston wants the Carolina trade but Watson prefers playing for New Orleans--how much leverage will Houston have and use?  Are they going to take less to placate Watson?  I think they play hardball with Watson like they have so far--if they have been unwilling to negotiate down, why would they now?

Carolina’s package maybe be better but it won’t be by much. I think New Orleans ends up being the compromise between Watson and Houston

I think it’s hard to look at any updates, because it’s hard for people to remember that while the Texans and Watson have to work together, they are not on the same side. It is in the Texans’ best interest to get the best offer from as many teams as possible that aren’t a detriment to them (i.e. in the division/conference). It’s in Watson’s best interest to be somewhere he wants to be. No coincidence that at this point, Deshaun has entertained every southeast team that is in a position to make an offer in the NFC.

If you’re the Texans you are pushing for him to give you a list of teams, so you can THEN leverage each of those teams for the best offer. No way the Texans give up that leverage by giving HIM a list of teams to choose from. If that was the case, he could just say “I want X team” and the Texans would have to take the best deal from that team, giving that team all the leverage. The Texans also don’t want to take the cap hit this year so they need him gone.

And if it weren’t the case, then Watson wouldn’t be talking to multiple teams. Texans need at least 2-3 teams to play ball in this, which they have. So it doesn’t matter who Deshaun wants the MOST, only who he is willing to go to. Then the Texans can make them fight it out for the best offer.

I will cut off my right nut before I go through another year of “this year Darnold will be good because he finally has _____ “

@LinvilleGorgewhy do yall let these obvious trolls stay? 

Trolling: to antagonize (others) online by deliberately posting inflammatory, irrelevant, or offensive comments or other disruptive content.

Irony: a literary technique by which the full significance of a character's words or actions are clear to the audience or reader although unknown to the character.

The Gary Cobb of JAKIB SportS

He’s a legit former Eagles player and current Eagles reporter/analyst. 
 

Doesn’t mean anything though as plenty of others with similar connections have been saying a ton of stuff.

    • 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.
