Sucks for him (especially) and the NFL as he was getting exciting to watch.
I cant even remember who the host was but yesterday on SportsHub someone was making a great point that the NFL has almost zero marketable stars left this year..
OBJ
Rodgers
Watt/Mercilus
Luck
Palmer
Watson
Tannehill (yes I know a bit of stretch)
Edelman
Elliot (I dont think they want to be heavily marketing him anyway right now)
Even good young starts like Mariota and Carr are hobbled...
Point being is that the whole league is just a big dumpster fire right now in terms of quality of star players in any given game....For example, who really wants to watch Bills/Jets game last night?
So who do you have left that you would turn on a game just to see play?
Brady - yes
Alex Smith/Hunt? No thanks
Big Ben/Antonio Brown/Bell - Maybe..
Dak/Zeke?
For a league that is already suffering a ratings decline this isnt good.
Colin will be called out for being hypocrite the second he signs
That's a bummer for them.
I also want to take this time to say all you f**ks that were whining about the defense against Houston well they played better against Watson than Seattle did.
Wow, dude, a bit strong there.
Let's just say EVERYONE should have been concerned about the Pats defense following two stinkers (at home) against the Texans and Panthers, two teams that going into the game had offenses that needed a GPS to find the end zone.
Did Watson turn out to be great? Sure, but everyone still should have been worried about the Pats defense at the time.
Tough break for Houston hope Deshaun Watson have a speedy recovery. But there is enough talent of that Team to take that division with a decent QB. Bob likes Tom Savage we will now see if what he thought about Savage was misplaced.
The Jags, as strange as it is to say, are in the driver’s seat in that division now.Tough break for Houston hope Deshaun Watson have a speedy recovery.

Yeah I thought the Jags would be gone hot and heavy on him. It’s possible, and likely, that Bill wouldn’t have wanted to trade him to a team within the conference - let alone a team with the kind of defense they have.I know, strange, right?
Imagine if they acquired Garrapolo......obviously it would have had to have been a king's ransom for the Pats to make a fellow AFC team a contender.

He's not actually on IR yet.No Hightower?
You make points worth considering, however, one thing you're missing: what may be correct/logical vs what's acceptable as a majority/politically/PR. Too often the latter wins that battle.
McNair already drafted and signed WatsonBob McNair signing Watson? LOL.
There's a better chance of Andy Johnson criticizing the Patriots, and we all know that's never gonna happen
