As fans of the Texans, we should feel a shared disgust about his dishonorable behavior.

If the Texans are nothing but doormats that can justify any prima donna player demanding what they want, then we should just accept that this is Detroit Lions south territory and be happy with just having a football team in Houston. Never expect or hope for anything greater because every player can just cite that they are unhappy with the owners and the dumb fans of Houston will blindly accept it.

I don't but it. It was the same owner and front office, sans O'Brien, when he signed that mega-deal in September 2020. He could have been a man like Cousins and forced the issue, but instead he signs a deal knowing that he's never going to honor it.

We will probably never get the truth, simply because it's not in the Texans DNA to reveal such things and Watson is clearly a selfish jackass that appears incapable of revealing who and what he really is to the public. He's got to spin his brand, so being duplicitous is just part of the marketing plan.

The sooner he's gone the better. On the bright side, many of us now have an NFL villain to actively root against. lol :voodoo:

I‘ll absolutely be rooting against the quitter/loser!
 
4:34pm: It may be an NFC South duel for Watson. The three-time Pro Bowler, as of Monday afternoon, is not willing to waive his no-trade clause for anyone but Carolina or New Orleans, John McClain of the Houston Chronicle said during an appearance on WFNZ (Twitter link). More teams are interested, but it certainly appears these two rivals are in the lead.

The Texans have the ultimate no trade clause.

The arrogance of Watson is just bizarre. He demands a trade just months after signing a huge deal and now gets to act like a free agent in picking his next team. I don't believe in karma, but if I did, I'd hope he endures many losing seasons in the years ahead. He is the worst kind of selfish, entitled entertainer.

If you watched his interview, dude had a freaking smirk on his face when he went to talk about how emotional things are.

Go back and look at the times I called his play selfish. I didn't know his personal life was so screwed up and selfish. Although I should've known.

Some posters are just having problems coming to grips with what the guy they thought was 1 thing turned out to be another. (Not referring to you)

Right, strictly the football side of things, it took 16 years for the Texans to find a top tier QB, something it takes that long or longer for a lot of teams to do (Browns entire existence), and the second they do it turns into this mess. If the Texans organization is so bad, which it very well could be, then someone working inside the walls would know best, and long before signing a mega deal contract. It doesn't just hit you 4 months after taking the money, especially when you've been on that inside for 3+ plus years.

So for that, and leaving my team on that search for a QB again, **** him. May Oiler heartbreak follow him the rest of his days.

I know you will all hate me and I’m ok with it.

But depending on which team Watson goes to, I’ll be rooting for him to win. On the field he is still one of my favorite athletes.

I dont hate you.

But I'm not surprised.

Some posters seem to be unable to come to grips with the fact that after complaints were filed Derrick was still out there preying on women. Root for whoever you wish, just know you're rooting for a loser and by your association you can follow the rest of my thought train.

And Tepper is a nutcase to have offered Watson his choice of the next Panthers HC.

I don't know. I'm just not easily disgusted, I guess. And I'm sure there are much more villainous things going on behind the scenes with these owners than a guy refusing to honor his contract. We all know how the McNair's made their fortune.

You’re going to have a bunch of people rooting for whatever team he goes to to win a Super Bowl just to prove you wrong.

I think it’s going to be the Saints.

If it's the Saints I want them to throw in the rights to Sean Payton as an extra bonus. He hasn't ruled out returning to coaching. The Saints own his contract through the 2024 season. He would be a back-up plan to Lovie Smith. If Lovie does work out Payton would be a tremendous bargaining chip in any future trades.

Wonder if we can get their colors too. I like black & gold.

Preach it, brother. I’ve been saying it for months here.
 
More teams to follow. Seattle has to be interested. Possibly Philly, Cleveland, or NYJ. that’s really about all of the potential suitors unless either the NYG or Miami gets back in at the 11th hour. The more, the merrier. My money is on Tepper. That dude wants Watson like a dog wants a steak bone.

True, I never thought about this.

Even if Payton was to never become the Texans HC, I bet Jerrah would bend over backwards giving up atleast a 1st and a 2nd for Payton. You want to bring C.D. Lamb home? I bet you could bring him home in a trade to the Cowboys for Payton.

Of course for the 2023 season I would rather Payton be the HC but having to pay off both Culley and Lovie isn't something Janice (If still alive) or Calhoun would do.

Oh yeah.
And Caserio could make a nice offer himself if he nails this draft.

Jets is what I've been waiting to hear despite some saying all in on Wilson. I just don't see that . Whether they will, they can offer 4 and 10 and 35 and 38 this draft! I can come up with 2 to 3 young starters also. Negotiations you got to love them.

It is not only picking the team but having say in the head coach and GM.

That’s like a kid getting a part time job and telling their parents what type of house to live in and what type of car to drive.

I don’t see why teams would want that person to lead their team.

He is football’s James Harden.

There is exactly zero evidence supporting that DeShaun Watson has indicated he will ask any team to input on HC or GM.
