Watson's people expecting a full season suspension

Has a starting caliber QB ever come back after 2 years of not playing a snap to perform at a high level?

Vick wasn't terrible after he came back, and you've got to think Watson was able to train better in his 2 years away from the game than Vick could while in jail.

Plus Watson was younger and better than Vick was when he missed time, so it seems like a decent comparison.

I'm coming back around to "Play the guy you traded for, and if he sucks, play the guy you traded up to draft" mentality. The coaches need to own the situation they put themselves in. 

I have been on that train since they traded for Sam but I know they will do anything to change it up again. It is the easy way and Tepper doesn't know jack and will let it happen.

Sucks it's primarily on Teppers ego to not admit that he just fuged up with the initial coaching hire. Took no time to fire the Soccer coach though. Don't get it

He still doesn't even know. This is the year duh...it's going to be funny watching him realize what a chode he hired at a price that makes him look like a clown

To recap, the Browns are out a first round pick for three years, a couple of assorted other picks, and burned the bridge with their starting QB (whether you like him or not), in exchange for the possibility that Watson someday may play for them.....maybe......assuming there are not even more allegations.  And the list stops there assuming they can/would void his contract and save themselves most of the cash.

To think we had people calling anybody who didn't want the Panthers all in on this fiasco idiots.

 

When you say it like that, it tastes like delicious cake.

It may affect it in some way (impacting the Browns negotiating position, for example) but in the end I don't believe there's any possibility he stays in Cleveland.

I'm pretty sure both parties are well aware that he isn't playing another down for them.

    • It is all confusing and layered. SB is the cash you get very soon within weeks or in simple terms, its what you get to sign the paper work. Players and agents can agree on contract but what to "wait" to sign......teams don't like that cause you can "Carlos Boozer" yourself. In order to get that ink dry, while keeping the contract the same, portion it as a bonus to "sign" and get the funds with ________ .   * But Ive seen worded contracts that split the SB or a 20% to a later date. The beans counters can fill in the details about why certain dates are better and save the team money.. Theres tricks to the trade and accounting is full of them.    Ugh another big layer, is SB can be used to manipulate cap and players. Ill try to give a example that makes enough sense. Believe it or not having a owner like Tepper is a cheat code for this. He has cash in hand, where as Mark Davis had problem making pay roll and had to move the team to Vegas....... Tepper can give you 100,000,000 SB right now and the team can spread out the cap hit. Another owner doesn't have or want to give the player 100,000,000 in cash, but offered the same guaranteed contract in roster bonuses fully guaranteed over the next few years........ Which one do you want??? Everyone wants the money now, not before another inflation waves hits in 2 years. So it does 'pay" to have a owner like tepper that's able to have real cash on hand, while it also works GREAT for cap help. Heres a good video, if you can stand coked up pat and mask look-a-like AJ    
    • I don't know. CMC is like others and may have lip serviced that line of " I had no plan or wanted to leave Carolina" I think he even said he bought a house too and wanted this to be home.   Here's what I heard- In a way Panthers org gave him a test and he didn't "fight" back. They approached CMC and told him they wanted to put him on IR since the "season" was over or out of playoff reach. CMC didn't fight it one lick and agreed. They secretly wanted him to kept playing or want to, but there was no kickback. I honestly don't know if its real or not, 5th hand information type deal doing on. Yes he had bruises and pains, but was able to play...... but went along with Panthers staff. Odd to be playing games with star players, but whatever....   Plus the staff doctors found out about his tendinitis and there was nothing to fix it. Even with him missing time, it was the best move to trade him before he got inflamed constantly.    Lastly, its mostly time a combo of stuff, Fitterererere did not sign him to be the highest paid RB. That was classic Marty "give me a" herniay doing. GMs have different values on roster spots and rumor was Fitterererer was one that didn't want to pay RBs. For all his faults, he's right about that......
