only we don't know that. Tepper has never displayed that yet. All we have is click bait social media post by people who want you to read and follow them.

I don’t even like soccer and think it’s cool he is bringing soccer here. Panthers have always had a presence in SC and should. Plus, Rock Hill is basically an extension of Charlotte. And if you don’t view it that way.....it will be in time. Tepper just brought in his coach this past season....who overachieved per the national outlook.

I'm clueless. But if that is the best way to be, I'll accept that.

well, my ears are open. I was just guessing off the fact that was the name of Tepper's hedge fund and the fact they did look at times of distress (Houston) to cash in.

you referencing Tepper cashing in during times of distress?

Hell, it probably was Houston. In hopes Tepper would come out and squash it. Try to take some hope away from Watson. See, Deshaun, everyone isn't going to bend over backwards to try to get you. who knows, as rich as Tepper is....I don't put that narrative out there.

not a lot of info gets out of NE. But we know it isn't exactly a happy place. and a lot of bodies have left NE. Big names. Probably no team has parted with more big names to watch them play elsewhere. I seriously doubt that was always a one way street dictated only by Bill.

Hell, just listen to Elon Musk.

incredibly stupid and absolutely genius often aren't that far apart.

who knows. But you got time and interested teams. Longer it goes? Maybe someone like Tepper keeps sweetening the deal. But I think if he isn't traded by the draft, it isn't happening. Texans will force him to sit. And I think he will sit a year if they call him on it. Which could be the play. Then Cal can take a shitty year and use it as an excuse to restructure things just how Watson wanted but have the angle it was all his idea because of how the team performed.

We don't know how he always arrived at "his terms". You think the "Patriot way" involved Bill having highly paid leaders of the franchise sitting out and trashing him?

the NBA mentality is coming to the NFL. It won't be a clone of what we see in the NBA....but superstar athletes are going to start flexing on franchises in ways we haven't seen. And by superstars, we are basically only talking about stud QBs.

Belichick had no problem parting with players though. The machine was always more important.

I don't really buy the Caserio. Damage was done before he got there and Watson is already on record about it not being about him. No one into football is going to think that. He can basically come in and get a poo ton for a guy leaving that he had nothing to do with. A path for him to do okay if he is good at his job.

only plummets after the draft. Stock probably can inch higher until then.

sources say Watson was spotted with windows down listening to James Taylor. I think you know the song...

Kiper got a thing for unathletic weak armed QBs.

I still think it comes down to Cal's ego. He knows Easterby is a colossal fug up most likely at this point. But is he going to have a player school him in front of the nation and tell Cal how to run things? Ego's are weird things. Human nature says people more often than not will double down on a mistake (Easterby) when poo blows up ang they are called on it. I mean this Watson thing shouldn't be a story. Could be killed tomorrow. It's hasn't been. That's Cal.

Tony Romo had some weird magic/escape skills in the pocket though that frankly rank pretty high up there. Too consistent to chalk up to luck but he looked pretty dang lucky.

you gotta think there is some "consulting group" just rolling in the dough taking their sweet time helping Washington with something a twitter poll likely could solve.

makes sense. You gotta think the Texans are going to want to hold off as long as possible and try to work something out. If they can't get him to budge then I think draft is where Watson would get moved if it happens.
