You've still got to be able to build around him though.

I don't buy the notion that we're just a quarterback away from being a contending team, especially looking at the offensive line that'd be charged with protecting that franchise quarterback.

If I thought we were a more complete team, I could get on board with this idea. As it is, I can't.

I agree to a point.  It’s hard to know how much is too much. 
 

What would be your top offer?

You don't want my top offer. Suffice it to say it'd be nowhere near the kind of craziness some have been proposing.

I've tried looking at it from the flipside though.

If I were a team that was being asked to trade another team my 25 year old franchise quarterback, what would I be asking?

My first answer would probably be the same as the Texans. "Hell no, I'm not trading him!"

But if it came down to the point that I had to, what I'd be asking in return would likely be something that would make God himself step back and take a deep breath.

We start making moves like this I firmly believe we win the Super Bowl in the next 3 to 4 years.

If that happens it’ll pretty much be a historical, groundbreaking strategy by building an entire SB caliber oline and entire defense from 3 years worth of FAs lol.

Personally - I’d bet against it.

I agree if I’m the Texans I’m wanting a haul.

I was just curious to what you would actually give up.

3 1st, no players?

I think that is entirely dependent on what the Texans need in a deal and if we can meet them. We will damn sure outbid anyone, but if they want a young stud starting QB, that is not something we can provide. I still think we are the most likely to get him, but if they wake up tomorrow and say I want Zach Wilson or Tua 100% then we can't make that happen. 

And why would they not? I sure would.....

How many games did we lose because Teddy couldn't deliver in crunch time?

I have kicked this around in my head for a while since the crazies are hell bent on Watson.  Looking at what's been rumored to be the asking price and what I personally would be comfortable with giving would be like this.

My bottom line offer would be 2 1st, this year 8 and next year's.  I would give them 2 defensive players, one of either Brown or Burns and one of either Thompson or Jackson.  That's it.  Anything more and I take my chances in the draft.

I’d do this plus a 2023 third to seal the deal.

I really don't want to part with Brown or Burns. I'd try like hell to keep those two and Chinn off the table.

I brag on Phil Snows season plenty, but the D could have also stopped the score that lead to being down too. Teddy still crap the 0-8 bed too. Plus some of those were also down by 8, so needed a 2 pointer too...

    • We could easily pick apart yesterday’s game: dropped passes, blown coverages, bad tackling and red zone issues to name a few. But it was clear that this wasn’t the same team from earlier in the season. They fought back and hung with the champs until the end. That’s what I was excited to see and it gives me hope that we’re on the right track.
    • I think BY played well today and exceeded expectations. I will temper future expectations as he has to string together many games of consistent quality. One game doesn’t convince me that he is a franchise QB or even a guy you want to stick with for another season. One game doesn’t erase all the negative play and limitations from the past couple of years. I hope he balls out and continues to get better but for me the verdict is still out   That said, I think he gave the team and fans hope yesterday which is a lot more than what we had when we woke up Sunday morning. 
    • He was vastly improved today and we need to see more of Bryce the rest of the season to continue evaluate him in order to decide what the heck to do with him at the end of the season. He must play at least like this and improve more from here the rest of the season in order for me to keep him. No more 123 yard passing games and want to see at least this output weekly from him. If this is Bruce improving slowly over time then Canales is even better with developing QB's than I thought he was but still too early to tell and we need to see him the rest of the way as he has at very least earned back the starting gig moving forward.
