The Deshaun Watson Discussion Thread

People have been victory-lapping after two games. What's the difference?

8* games

Two games (plus today). Last year was always a throwaway year for reasons that should be obvious.

You'll still be here if he looks terrible again vs. the Ravens and 49ers, right...?

Right.......?

What, you think he'll dip?

Why would I not be? I've been wrong plenty of times before.

Two games? It has been two years.

Looks like we may see DTR this week

Are we really going to count '22 against him? It doesn't seem logical to do that when he was out of the game for 1.5 years and was dealing with all the off-the-field stuff.

I tend to count games that a player played in as happening and count that into my rankings, yes.

Fair enough. DW situation is unique. I prefer to be less rigid than you when it comes to his '22 games. To each their own!

Interesting to see the cracks in the foundation of this relationship already, and if Stefanski will be moved off of this year. Some teammates not happy with Watson being medically cleared to play, but deciding to sit vs the Ravens. I am really interested to see how they look the rest of the way, as the weather starts to turn, with no Chubb.

I hope Watson loses every game he plays. He is far and away my least favorite player.

Use to like the Browns until they signed a player I have zero respect for as a human.

Btw, I don’t care at all if people disagree with me on Watson.

So glad he is out of Houston and now the Browns get to deal with him.

Yeah, I don't think you're going to get any pushback on this one.

Dude's a sex pest weirdo at best and a full on creep at worst.

We'd probably be cracking the lid on talking about him washing out of the league soon if the Browns hadn't guaranteed his professional employment until 2027.

True, That wasn't a hot take...

This is interesting to circle back on now. I missed the medically cleared to play announcement, but I do remember expectations were that he would go.

Fast forward a week, they’ve had a bye…and now he still isn’t practicing. Will be interesting to see what tomorrow and Friday bring in terms of practice reports.

He watched the 49ers pass rush, I think.

FWIW, he told his teammates he'd play, then changed his mind really late in the process, last week.

Is this dude quiet-quitting on his team after getting 235 million dollars guaranteed?

He canceled his usual Wednesday media conference. He's medically cleared but is deeming himself unable to play nor practice.

It kind of feels like he might be quiet-quitting. Sheesh... what a guy.
