Watson is not being traded this season. As soon as someone tries to put him on the field he would be suspended. The teams linked to him would be looking to salvage *this* season (the one in which he won't be playing). I've said all along that Houston should have tried to play him. They should have went to his agent and said, "We're gonna start Watson. We need him to cooperate." then the commissioner would have suspended him and he may have been able to play at some point this season. His situation on being able to play would have been cleared up and the suitors would be a lot more willing to pull the trigger. As it stands, he'd have to settle and every single woman would have to drop the charges for him to have chance to step on the field and that's extremely unlikely to happen thus no one is going to give up multiple 1st round picks for him by the 2nd.

He was traded. He didn't get a choice. He must have pissed off Joe D last year when he played for the... Jets..

Especially when he was already on their team last year... and they made the genius decision that they didn't need a veteran backup

jfc Really need to think about shutting this board down for the week after a loss. People lose their minds and there wasn't much to lose.

That's exactly the point. You called a play that can be killed by one guy screwing up with no hope of other options or improvisation. If you're going for it on 4th and 1 in the 1st quarter then sure. That's the play call. The last play of the game, no, you have to give yourself options.

Going for it was the absolute right call. A QB sneak was moronic. After games where the sneak was there against other teams and they didn't do it. You have an improvisational player who is big, fast and strong and you call the ONE F***ING play that removes that. You design roll him out right and let him decide if he wants to throw or run it. He can either run over a db, outrun a lineman or throw it if a LB leaves coverage. If everything goes wrong, he may still pull a play out of his ***. Instead, a QB sneak against a team that it obviously wasn't there against. A play that removes all ability to put something together if it breaks down. A play that can be ended by a single player on your team or theirs. I swear Daboll calls **** sometimes just to 'prove' he can..

I didn't like that play call there. Titans have been blowing up the line. You roll Allen out right and give him run/pass option.

The Mahomes are really showing the type of class you'd expect from the face of the NFL.

I missed it, what did he say?

RAYRAY SIGHTING!

The evidence says Geno Smith.

or maybe don't give up 2 1sts for a safety who can't cover or tackle and then make him the highest paid at his position.

Pats are the best choice. They're not a threat to the division and unlikely to make the playoffs so a win hurts their draft position and puts the dak ballwashing on hold for a week.

Philly would really appreciate that since they have the Dolphins pick.

Yep, everyone in that org thought they weren't just making the playoffs, but were going to challenge for the division. Philly be like, "yea, yeah, you guys are awesome. It's the Suerbowl for you. Give us that 1st, thanks. "

From everything I've read, there's a lot of conjecture and reading into statements from Flores that seem to show that he doesn't trust Tua. The beat reporters seem to be on the same page that Flores may have taken Herbert, but that both he and Grier were totally fine with Tua as well.

I think they both go if one goes. Flores has had huge influence on personnel with Grier's blessing. I think they're pretty tied at the hip.

Not instantly It would be at least a few games.

Would either of these teams beat Bishop Sycamore?

Will Urban Meyer score with more British teens on this trip than the Jags will score points?

Absence makes the heart grow fonder

I mean, they'd hold it every time regardless of it being a trick play or not.

I asked about this back a little and a poster pointed me to Parcells explaining that it takes too much time to practice that the Backup QB does have with his own practice/meeting to prepare as the back and often running the scout team. So it seems that coaches have determined that's more important than the potential of a trick play since holding requires so much practice time.
