“They have no state income tax” is shrewd, but not among the top priorities id expect to see mentioned. I bet Marino would pay millions to rewind the clock and get a ring.
As someone who lives in Houston and fluctuates between not caring about the Texans to rooting against them this has all been pretty fun And I just generally hate trust fund babies who think they’re smarter than everyone, so that’s added another layer to my enjoyment
it is impossible for the texans to win a trade involving deshaun so they’re absolute morons if they don’t call his bluff and refuse
Bill O’Brien was the casino addicted dad that burnt through the family’s savings and kid’s college funds. Sometimes there’s no better choice than to start selling other valuables to make up the loss. Deshaun is the Benz that you need to sell. So you have to drive a Kia to work for a while. At least you’ll get out of debt sooner. If they can get a first and second this year and at least another future 1st and second, then it would be the smartest move out of a bad situation. And minimizing damage at its best.
Yep. That's why I was always highly skeptical he'd actually get moved when all this first started. But there's just so much smoke now that I think they are stupid enough to actually be considering doing it.
that was a joke theyre dumb and all but only y’all and bama fans are dumb enough to think checkdown tua is worth a shit
Yeah they'll never have a better QB let alone one with so many elite years ahead. I highly doubt they deal him
Aside from winning/losing a trade I fail to see a path to a competitive roster with him on it. He's about to become expensive, and they couldn't even build a roster when he was cheap, and now they have no draft capital.
none of those assets are remotely close to a qb as good as deshaun you fire this cult freak and call deshaun’s bluff. he’s elite and you will almost assuredly never get a player like him at such a valuable position ever again. you ride it out. there is no way to salvage this other than ensuring deshaun watson remains under contract for your team
Tua catches a ton of shit he doesn't really deserve but if we can get Watson for Tua and a first, that's laughably cheap.
I agree with you 100 percent that the best move is to get rid of the priest. And hire who Deshaun Watson wants. Do whatever it takes to fix the situation and move forward with DW. I was talking about the smart move if it’s past the breaking point and/or they choose to side with Joel Olsteen Jr. Then if your hand is forced, you can at least undo some of the damage BoB left behind and recoup picks.
How do you let a preacher ruin your franchise? It’s a damn preacher. How much of a difference does he make, positively?
It’s going to take more but barring something obscene like Tua plus 3 firsts, it’s a no doubt yes deal
It would be a bold move, but I really like Deshaun Watson so I'd be willing to swap playoff-QB Mitch Trubisky for him
Like, do players love his message? Doesn't appear so. So wild for a team to hitch their wagon to a guy who leads them in prayer. There's 10000000 guys out there who can do that.
Figures when we need to replace Brees our cap issues are a mess and the Saints can’t deal for D Watson. Would be great in NOLA.
Not looking at cap issues, etc. but Saints, Steelers, Dolphins, Washington, 49ers and Colts would be in the championship mix with him. Doubt they would trade him in division to Colts.
Dolphins have 40 million in space and could easily create about 20 million more without cutting anyone of consquence.
