It was not long ago that I posted asking why the NFL had not done something and many stated it was a done deal. Yet we've hadn't heard from NFL not even questioning him yet. That is curious..unless they couldn't find evidence in the four civil claims they interviewed. I feel Texans have played this as well as they could.
There are some on here who want things to happen with DW the way they think it should. Like Woodpecker keeps banging his beak whether there is anything in the tree. Just enjoys his own noise despite others saying how annoying he is. If Woodpecker ever quit the only thing missed would be the noise..
Are you saying the Texans will cancel training camp, the preseason, & the regular season like they canceled mandatory mini camp
Over 30 women have made a claim of some sort against DW. Isn't that personal conduct that is against the NFL image? That should be more than enough to kick him out of the NFL Even if he were to be found innocent. Yet they have not disciplined him or as I understand even interviewed him.
What hammer? I understand the wait for training camp but to do what? What else can Buzzbee say? It seems to me that all of his accusations have not pressured Watson to do anything.
Detroit, Philly, Panthers and Miami still need QBs with WFT, NYG, DENVER and Raiders being discussed as possible QB destinations for QB. A trade is still possible even if for 2022 playing time for #4. Edit: I forgot Atlanta.
If DW4 was calling on high priced call girls than he risked damaging his reputaion just the same. Both he and the high priced call girls had some risk involved in their actions. It boils down to who would blink first. I am sure the threats went both ways.
Buzbee will have no fear of that scenario. Any such suit in these cases are likely to be immediately laughed out of court.
I don't think Hardin would expect to win any more than he did when he filed against Brian McNamee. Info says lawsuit did rattle the defendant. I don't imagine most people like to be sued.
Discipline would come closer to the season, as to wait and see if any criminal charges come before that
I would wait for criminal charges also but if what Watson did is viewed as bad as many here proclaim and I personally think it is, why wait? The longer it waits the worse it looks to the public. Isn't that public perception what the NFL is desirous of Protecting? Not trying to debate you or be argumentative.
But isn't that the pressure or hammer as someone said that Buzbee is counting on?
Grand juries take time. First the DA would need to decide if they want to bring to a jury. Second, the jury needs to be seated. So those jury summons that you receive in the mail, etc. also, Harris County courts are VERY backed up right now.
another reason for a DA to hesitate on taking case if evidence weak. As you have said, criminal evidence requirement different. She said he said probably not enough. If recordings exist, that should have leaked. Makes me doubt it exists. Maybe Hardin not as dumb as some have said.
25 years young or not, the so called female massage therapist DW4 had sex with as well as the others he was accused of sexually assaulting, smacks of a compulsion and can not simply be looked upon as him being a normal young man with a high sex drive.His behavior in regards to these women makes him more than just a horny young man.
When reading the Fox News article on Instagram Models, I tend to think there is some validity in that as well. As much as if not more than the SI article.
Good find.
Not true all the time. Many sexual assault cases in Texas don’t have hard evidence and folks are still charged
Grand juries can and in Sexual Assault cases do indict without hard evidence. Especially in Harris County. If the officer deems the complainant to be credible and reliable. Then it goes forward.

REPORT: Deshaun Watson Likely Won't Play Another NFL Game Until 2023
Read “REPORT: Deshaun Watson Likely Won't Play Another NFL Game Until 2023 ” and other Houston Texans, NFL articles from Total Pro Sports.
That means he will be out for the balance of the 2021 season. He will be getting a paid vacation.”
Watson isn’t scheduled to give his deposition until February 2022, which would be a few days after the Super Bowl. Maller explained why this timeline could wipe away the next two seasons for the quarterback.
“A trial date would be sometime in May of 2022 and it might not be until early June, which means the trial would go through June and part of July. Training camp opens in July,” Maller said. “The NFL does not give out time served. Which means when the trial happens, if Deshaun Watson is found guilty in the civil court — and remember the standards is much lower in civil court than criminal court — then the NFL has to come back and say, ‘well, bad news, we’ve got to punish him.'”
More than 20 women have accused the Houston Texans QB of sexual misconduct and assault during massages that date back to March 2020.
Is DW4 wealthy enough to pay them all a substantial amount of money? Based on how much he is noted to be worth, I would say paying off more than 20 women is really not all that many. I doubt he will pay enough to be anywhere near going broke.
OK thought about it and then thought again. They said they didn't have and few days later declined..
What I got from that was....REPORT: Deshaun Watson Likely Won't Play Another NFL Game Until 2023

I agree that the number of alleged victims is significant but I'm not sure if saying that Watson's accusers outnumber Elliott's 20 to 1 and therefore it has anything to do with how long it will take for an decision.

Because something in those few days changed. They were okay saying we don’t have any complaints. Then that changed once they received them
Sorry but I think you're overthinking it. On the 2nd go around it could be as simple as a higher ranked person Deciding that nothing should be said about what is being reviewed.

Back in the 1990s I served on a grand jury. It is probably different now but back then I served for 2 months. It was not every day though. If I remember correctly I was actually in court for about six days. I assume they rotated other grand juries on the days when we were not there.
Why shouldn't they let this all play out a bit more as opposed to making a rash decision? If the evidence is conclusive it won't matter who their fans are, they will be forced to act accordingly. If nothing happens on the HPD's end than any punishment they hand out will be based on the outcome of the civil cases.
How many of those cases of sexual assault without hard evidence involved the rich and famous? Hell, what about simply being rich?
