To be honest, I don’t want to bite him either. As they say in pre-school, “use your words!” I can’t see them letting a guy of his talent and youth go for almost ANY price. It’s the most important position, and he’s proven. Even the BEST college prospects are still “prospects”. The real problems are above the QB position, which is why he wants out. Tough situation, and I’m glad I’m not a Texans fan. 1 1
Orlando Buffalo Posted January 24, 2021 Posted January 24, 2021 3 hours ago, BITE ME said: Who cares? Nobody is winning anything with Watson. He is 1-2 in the playoffs and whines constantly because he can't produce. He might not even be in the league in 5 years from now because nobody wants a toxic clown on their roster. This does not make sense unless you truly think he can throw for the most yards in a season and still be a below average QB. Numbers aren't everything but they matter.
FieldGeneral Posted January 24, 2021 Posted January 24, 2021 Houston isn't trading him to Jacksonville or Indy since they're in Division. The only logical teams are NE, NYJ, and maybe Washington. They have cap space and in need of a QB. Watson doesn't want to go to another team that wastes his talent by not filling areas of need immediately.

A no trade clause only matters when the team is trading you and you don't like where you are being traded to. You don't get to determine if you are traded. You have a contract. He has no say in the matter. The stupidity of people really is mind boggling. There is much irony embedded within this quote. I appreciate the onion that is you: so many layers to peel back, and it just keeps getting more noxious. Edited January 24, 2021 by Richard Noggin better word 1
billsfan89 Posted January 24, 2021 Posted January 24, 2021 Jets should go all in give them pick 2, both Seattle firsts and the Jets 2022 pick along with whatever else you need to get the trade done. I hope that neither the Jets nor Fins get him but it would be the optimal move for either franchise.

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted January 24, 2021 Posted January 24, 2021 Houston has a top 5 QB and had a top 3 WR in Nuke. Teams try forever to get that golden combo. I would even say that every team left in the playoffs has a top 6 QB and a Top 10 WR. Poor poor Texans.
Nitro Posted January 24, 2021 Posted January 24, 2021 Watson is insane if he wants to play for the Jets. Organization is just as big a mess as the one in Houston 1

He wants out and wants to go to the most inept team in the NFL. The Jets. 😂 He wants to go to NY so he can be in the media capital of the world and get all the attention and endorsements. He is all about himself. That is why he only has 1 win in the playoffs in 4 seasons in the NFL despite having the top WR in the NFL for 3 of those seasons. The guy was the QB of a 4-12 team. It is amazing people think this guy is elite. He is arguably the most self-centered QB in the NFL. 1

jcamm1966 Posted January 24, 2021 Posted January 24, 2021 Careful what you wish for , NY media is not going too give pass after pass like Houston media 1
DCOrange Posted January 24, 2021 Posted January 24, 2021 Not sure if it was posted in here or not, but Matt Miller tweeted that he reached out to a bunch of sources and was told that the Jets are absolutely not at the top of Watson's list (which passes the smell test much more than the Miami Herald report IMO). 2 1

Mr. WEO Posted January 24, 2021 Posted January 24, 2021 10 hours ago, dave mcbride said: This is literally a terrible take. Do some research into the games. QBs don’t have win-loss records that are reflective of reality. Watson was phenomenal in 2020, but the TEAM was absolutely terrible. Step up your analytical game. This is a great forum, and it’s weakened by hot takes like invocations of playoff won-loss records that necessarily occur in very small sample sizes. Pointing out that the 11-5, 10-6 Watkins/Hopkins/Watt teams won a single playoff game isn't necessarily a hot take though. Both sides are looking dumb in this drama: Teams not picking up the phone to Watson before hiring the GM and then floating their backup QB as a HC prospect....and Watson, months after crying tears of joy (months after his team traded Hopkins) over his big payday playing out publicly his personal dissatisfaction with the GM snub and letting all these stories of not if he is leaving, but where he is headed.

They will look to upgrade from someone who is basically a game manager with all the big names being thrown around as in play. 1
Doc Posted January 24, 2021 Posted January 24, 2021 (edited) Watson doesn't have any leverage. He's under contract and the team is coming off a 4-12 season with him last year. And while that's not necessarily on him, the point is he can't threaten a holdout under the pretenses that it ruins their chances at the playoffs this coming season. Meanwhile holding-out racks-up huge fines. That being said, they should do what they can to mend fences. Both sides. Edited January 24, 2021 by Doc 2

Watson had a pretty good game against KC, playing well enough to beat most teams. The defense, however, gave up 51 points. He accounted for 3 tds, didn’t turn the ball over, threw for 388 yards, and ran for another 37. They didn’t lose because of him.
