Assuming I'm saying Duke should get more touches.

I was trying to point out the fallacy in your argument. Obviously you didn't understand the point I was trying to make. I will try again, You're comparing a 3 down RB with a 3rd Down RB. Playcalling will be different and Duke has a very limited amount of touches. When McCaffery is in the game the entire playbook is open. When Duke is in the game it's not. An apple/oranges comparison. IMHO

Burrow is going to win the Heisman. Who is his competition for the Heisman? LOL...down year for that. How many Heisman QBs have been ANY GOOD? Burrow has played an Alabama that is no where near as good as the 2 Watson played in the NC games (Those Ds were considered 2 of the best in Alabama history). Burrow has ONE year of good games and another year of decent play. Yeah, let's trade him for Watson.

You're making excuses, are you saying Burrow wont be a franchise QB? He has no competition because he's been that good.

No, you are just DUMB about football if you think Brissett is better than Watson. Colts fans are already plotting the way they can get their future QB in the next draft; go read their message boards.
 
steelbtexan said:
You don get what I'm trying to say. If BOB's scheme is so predictable then why does it work sometimes and other times it doesn't? Are some teams coaches just that much better than others? I'm sure when Belichick confuses Watson again this week it will be all BOB's fault.

We will never agree because I dont think BOB/Smith is coaching Watson to hold the ball too long/Or scramble to his right when he feels pressure.

I also think you're taking the easy way out trying to blame everything on BOB when the last 2 games should've shown you where Watson needs to improve, but it wont unfortunately.

Those two are not putting a strong emphasis on getting rid of it verses holding onto it. If they did, I honestly believe Watson would do what his coaches wanted. The youngster is very studious, coachable and humbled. So why are you continually trying to paint a negative image of Watson like that but steady giving Obrien a pass. That's what I don't understand.

I just disagree with you that BOB wants Watson to hold onto the ball like he does. Like I said if that's what BOB wants then he should be fired. That's hardly giving BOB a pass.

That's 13 pro bowls in 58 career years and I didn't even bother adding up the career years of Wilson and the :spit: posse. This guy might be the reason Watson regresses.

Has NOTHING to with a disagreement. His argument is IDIOTIC. He picks 2 college QBs that have done NOTHING against Watson? Watching those QBs play, there are not in the same GALAXY as Watson. He also seem to have issues with Warren Moon. He seems to have issues with QB's of color playing Quarterback for Houston teams.

I don't understand it either. You look around the NFL and you see how many teams are searching for young QBs. We have a young QB who has barely played two seasons worth of NFL games, is producing stats at a historical level in a scheme that many experts believe is inflexible and doesn't provide him with enough easy options.

The only logical reason to even contemplate trading Watson is to give O'Brien another excuse. Watson held him back from implementing his genius rebuilding plan and he will need another five years to complete year TWO of his awesome rebuild.

Did you not see how that line was getting destroyed against the freaking Ravens. In that game alone they had 5 sacks. Right after a darn bi week. You want to de so right. The only reason why the line is half way decent is because " WE WERE GETTING THE BALL OUT QUICKER"! The RPO was sprinkled Into the equation and the threat of Watson running kept defenders at bay. That is the reason why the Colts made sure to spy Watson the entire game.

Oh did you not see the Colts 3-4 man rush being able to put pressure on Watson. They didn't respect our offensive line that. Especially after watch the film against the Ravens.

When Watson did hold it too long, credit the secondary. We didn't have any recievers open.

Great excuse.

Brisset almost out played Watson on one leg last night.

If we're going to play the if game, if the Colts would've gotten those turnovers the Colts would've beaten the Texans and Brissett would've outplayed Watson and it somehow would've been BOB's fault IF the Texans had lost.

What you should want is an offensive play caller that could tailor his scheme to the players he has. The only time OB has done that is when he "dumbed down" his scheme to accommodate QBs that were new to his system.

I will give you credit for calling Watson out, though. He's looking for the splash play too much and not taking what the D is giving him.

Dont tell me

Go checkout the Texans twitter feed.

The Texans are between a rock and a hard place. They have a popular QB that's good and the fanbase is hungry for a good QB since the franchise has never had a good QB before. Bu you're not going to win a championship with him if he doesn't change his style of play. You can blame this on BOB if you wish.

OB has changed his scheme t better fit Watson. Problem is good DC's know Watson's tendencies and scheme to keep him throwing from the pocket and so far Watson has looked confused and has a case of the happy feet in the pocket.
 
Watching these Rodgers highlights, look how similar Watson's play is to Rodgers. SteelB would tell Packers' fans that their QB drifts too much out of the pocket and should be traded.

Difference is I've seen Rodgers step up into the pocket and deliver the ball accurately. In the playoffs and a SB. Watson has yet to do this consistently in the regular season and until he does I will remain skeptical.

Man you're off the chains if you truly believe that. We've seen below average quarterbacks win Superbowls. But hey like I said, this is exactly what you do when you don't like a certain player/s or person.

Crazy how you continue to blame Watson. But after 6 years of concrete evidence on Bill O'Brien, he gets a pass from you. At first it was Rick holding him back now Watson.

When you miss games your stats dont tend to look as good.

Lets move on, I dont think without much improvement from Watson regardless of the HC the Texans will never win a SB and I truly hope he improves but he really hasn't in 3 yrs. Even if I agreed with you (Which I dont) his improvement has been marginal at best.

You disagree which is fine. Minds wont be changed and this is probably boring for the rest of the MB.

Kubiak was held back the lack of a QB. In 2011, Schaub was playing well until Albert Haynesworth. In 2012, Schaub regressed before our eyes after 10 games into the season. Both of those team could have won Superbowls, if not for the QB play in the playoffs.

It was Kubiak and Smith's fault that they didn't draft a QB or sign Peyton Manning in FA.

You need to PM Corrosion for his thoughts on this. He's got inside info. Anyways RS not drafting a QB in a decade, except a couple of late rd guys is inexcusable. Bob McNair gave him a directive to draft a QB or Watson probably wouldn't be here today.

Keep telling yourself this.

A HOF doesn't lose a 35-3 lead in the 3rd qtr in the playoffs regardless of what the defense does. For this reason he shouldn't be in the HOF. Glanville said it best, great QB that cant win when it counts he most. He also blew playoff games with big leads (Denver) before 35-3 and after 35-3 (Chiefs.)

He's in, so obviously Pancakes influence helped him get in.

If the offense had put a drive together even without scoring there wouldn't have been enough time for a comeback. I guess you've never heard of the term complimentary football. This was the Oilers biggest issue back then. I mean you had Ryan/Gilbride fighting on the sideline because Gilbride's stupid resume building throwing the ball instead of running the clock out cost Buddy his starting S Marcus Robertson due to an ACL. his happened the next yr after Buffalo against the NYJ's late in the season.
