Simms Concludes his top 40 qb's. Allen top dog.
mannc replied to Stank_Nasty's topic in The Stadium Wall
Knox and Davis have a lot of potential, but neither is a proven, top level player yet. It’s reasonable to think one or both will break out this year, but it’s far from a certainty. -
Feeling like Bengals might be "Top Opponent" this year

That was really bad… -

Simms is not real high on Josh’s supporting cast on offense…I tend to agree, and think many here overrate our offensive weapons. Josh makes them look better than they really are…- 64 replies

The problem is, Matt Ryan’s tank is empty. The Colts are tough, though…very fortunate to find suckers to take Carson Wentz off their hands… -
There is absolutely no reason to believe that Sam Darnold is better than Case Keenum, especially as a backup.

Oh, I understand what he's saying...And I'm telling you that the Browns would be laughed out of court if they try to void the trade on the grounds that at the time, they only knew about 23 Deshaun Watson victims, while in reality there were 24. I'd love to ask the Browns GM under oath why the team was cool with 23 victims, but the 24th just put them over the edge... No, it couldn't, unless (a) the newly revealed allegations are materially worse than the allegations of the first 23 victims, (b) that Houston knew about the newly revealed, really bad stuff, and (c) that Houston had some contractual or other legal duty to disclose that stuff to the Browns.

I don’t think that’s the way it works. When a team trades for a player, I don’t think there are any “reps and warranties” from the player’s old team, other than perhaps regarding the player’s medical condition. In this case, there were so many bad facts that were publicly known, it would be impossible for the Browns to convince anyone that they got scammed. Plus, the Browns knew that the league had yet to weigh in, so they ran the risk of trading for a guy who potentially wasn’t going to be available…they had plenty of opportunity to vet the situation and they utterly failed.

How can they unwind it? Houston already used some of the picks they got in the trade. Cleveland is stuck with this guy. It’s “buyer beware” and Watson’s problems were hardly a secret at the time of the trade. The Browns made a guy who should have to register as a sex offender the face of their franchise. They own it now.

I don't know about that, but it's not a good look for them. Whether that could be a basis to void the trade would depend on a whole lot of things, like the extent of their knowledge, what they disclosed to the Browns, and of course, what are legitimate grounds to void a trade under league rules. I mean, just based on the publicly available information, the Browns certainly knew they were trading for a lowlife pervert, or if they didn't, they're complete idiots.

Good point. But if Watson is suspended for a full season—on top of playing zero football for the past 18 months—I think the guy’s career is pretty much in the toilet. As it is, I don’t think Watson will ever be what he was before he was revealed to be a perverted menace to massage therapists. As we’ve learned, playing QB in the NFL is as much about leadership as anything, and a guy like this is never going to lead an NFL franchise again.

And this is exactly why evidence of what he did with the other women will be admissible at trial... I know there are a lot of victims here, but I am enjoying the hell out of seeing this dumpster fire get worse and worse for the Browns, Watson and his laughably bad defense team...Caserio must be laughing his ass off...

Congrats! Love that course, but can't remember the fifth hole...it's been too long.
