Was this written by the same guy who said Brady to the Texans at the trade deadline made too much sense not to happens? (This was while we were red hot btw not right after KC game).

When has ESPN ever been embarrassed by publishing incredibly dumb articles?

JJ would make a better TE than Gronk? Say watt?!?!?

SONS_OF_BELICHICK · Dec 5, 2014

When are we signing Al Bundy....4 touch downs in a single game...

based on that logic, Mike Vrabel is the greatest TE to ever play the game already lol

Whose idea do you think it was to use Watt as a TE?

On a minor note, the writer forgets one minor point: running 30-yard routes at 265 pounds is not the same thing as running those 30-yard routes at 295 pounds.

No, that was a different moron.

Yeah, that where the whole quickness of the argument in the article is all wrong. Maybe Watt has a faster first step, but he cannot keep up with Gronk when running a longer route. Watt had a fast 40 time for a DE (4.81), but it would have been a so-so 40 time for TE.

Cruising for clicks. Nothing to see here.......................

Didn't JJ Watt get moved away from TE in HS or College because he wasn't very good there? That's how he ended up as the DE he is now?

Saint Pat · Dec 5, 2014

J.J. Watt has played tight end for probably less than 30 seconds this season. Three plays. Three routes. Three touchdown catches. Not a very large sample size. But I've seen enough to know that if the Houston Texans All-Pro defensive end ever wanted to switch to the other side of the ball and go back to his original position of tight end, he would never be as good as, say, the Patriots Rob Gronkowski.

He'd be better. Much, much better.

How do these people gets these jobs and how much are they getting paid? Better be min wage...

I always thought she was fine on Freaks and Geeks. One of the few reasons I watched the show besides it being really good.

Crazy Patriot Guy · Dec 5, 2014

I saw that yesterday but didn't click on it. Let's say the guy is right. That means everyone with the Texans should lose their jobs for not immediately making that switch. A TE "much, much better" than Gronk would transform that offense.

dales804 · Dec 5, 2014

Yes and Mike Vrable and Dan Klecko are also better TEs than Gronk.

already did...he slept in for practice because he was telling busy telling the NoMa'ams club about his performance...the rest is history

Dan Connelly I heard was the best kick off returner in history.

meatface · Dec 5, 2014

How can you even justify this to yourself? You might as well claim that Wilfork should be playing DB because of his recent string of Picks.

JJ Watt a better TE than Gronk?!?
