Death to Google Ads! Texans Talk Tip Jar! 🍺😎👍
Thanks for your support!
That is exactly what I am saying, I am not questioning his ability or play making skills. Only what he is doing when on the sideline and the team is not doing great. And does he ever get mad ? Oline lets him get sacked 7 times, and he is still all smiles with the guys. I don't want a cry baby, but there is nothing wrong with a motivator !
You're rewriting history, all reports at the time said that OB wanted Mahomes and RS wanted Watson. Since RS was making the call for the Texans by default Watson was the QB the Texans wanted. Watson was not our consolation prize he was RS's championship trophy. You're also forgetting a few very important details in your "Mahomes is better" argument.
I think that is the case.
You haven't seen it? Or the broadcast just didn't show it?
This.
There you go taking things to the extreme and twisting it around.
OK, I remember it wrong and concede the point. Whatever became of Rick after he won that trophy? So maybe he wasn't the Texans consolation prize. He was sure as hell Bill O'Brien's consolation prize. Rick's fate shows us all what happens when you cross ol' Butt-Chin too many times I think.
He's a smart man. Nobody wants to come coach a team with a QB who dumped his previous coach in the grease. Nobody wants to sign a FA QB who blames his coaches for failure. He's not insane. He's diplomatic.
The winningest QB is that a-hole berating his offense on the sideline. Not something I condone or want from Watson. Neither is the other extreme that he seems to exemplify by throwing a pity party for 1 at the end of the bench like Cam Newton is infamous for. There is no wrong, it's just opinion, but in my experience the most effective leader is active and a builder. Someone always working with and part of the group, encouraging, advising ... and that doesn't happen scowling alone at the end of the bench.
im sure you've played the game. nothing comes across as more disingenuous and forced as a QB speech on the sideline when things are not going well. Watson is never too high and never too low, thats why his makeup is ideal in pressure situations as evidenced with his resume so far as a football player. Yesterday should have been yet another feather in his cap. Instead its being painted as if he was the player responsible for the collapse.
That's an interesting theory. Not sure that I agree or disagree with that, but I certainly hope you're wrong. Cam Newton is not a guy you'd want him to be similar to leadership wise. Personally, I think QB"s have to go out there and become vocal at times. They've got to rally an offense at moments when the game can change or is changing. I've heard to many players tell stories about the QB's demeanor in huddles and their energy on the sidelines and the things different guys would say and do that would become effective to inspire confidence.
There are players all over the league that tell stories who would disagree with you. Tom Brady has done it so many freaking times, and hell Mahomes was doing this just recently on the sidelines against the Patriots in a tight game where they won and he was effective in charging his team up.
Those tomahawks sure stopped flying throughout the earlier Chiefs loss to the Texans.............
Michael Jordan couldn’t win with garbage coaches. You give Watson a legit coach and I guarantee you mahomes will be forgotten.
Ian Rappaport who usually reports on the Texans like he is O'Brien's personal PR guy was on the Sean Salisbury show and Salisbury could not get him to criticize O'Brien. Rapport says O'Brien moved up to get Watson. He is winning the division and making the playoffs more than many other teams. The key thing was Rappaport gave O'Brien credit for moving up to draft Watson. Go figure.
Didn't Jordan get his first coach (Doug Collins) fired? We know the rest of the story.....
Big dog he’s not progressing whatsoever is what’s been spewed by a couple of members. We don’t need that so let’s get back to the Hoyer type, maybe bring back Fitzpatrick. Shoots Mallet is looking for a job.
That was last year... why is he talking to Kelly?
I thought it was Kelly, maybe it was Sean Ryan or whoever O'Brien deemed the tablet holder. Maybe you found out what was wrong with the offense this year. Sean Ryan left.
And everyone can see this except for OB himself. Shame.
... and then the Chiefs said "16-0 comeback? meh, hold my beer"
Prior to that OBs teams were 0-22 when trailing by 16 points or more after halftime and about to be 0-23 if it wasn't for Watson's heroics. Good thing we kept OB as GM so he can't fire himself.
LMAO the student showing the teacher how the curriculum is flawed and the teacher not wanting to hear it. talking about the levels in the passing game and how it creates traffic jams on the field. stupid, STUPID way to deploy receivers. SMH.
