Trading for a QB who's career is hanging in the balance wouldn't be a good move. He'd seal his fate if he traded a king's ransom for a guy who ends up in the commissioner's exempt list as soon as we tried to suit him up.

I want to win. I REALLY want to win. But I have no interest in Watson until there some (a lot) of clarification to the Watson situation. Maybe it makes me a bad fan, but I don't have any interest in cheering for a fuging serial sexual predator.

No, I agree with you in it being a moral and ethical dilemma.  But, this is the NFL.  I have no interest in cheering on a guy who may have done the things he has done, although is he innocent until proven guilty, and I don't like the optics of it either.  But, you either do whatever it takes to win, or you will be unemployed and without a QB, you aren't winning.

Rhule's claim that he believed Sam was going to be a a great QB for the Panthers just spontaneously combusted right in his face within days and he can't fall back on that anymore with Sam being benched.

I think Tepper would be willing to take the gamble to give Rhule one last reprieve from his burning seat - a proven, franchise QB - and if he can't turn things around with him, he and his staff are canned.

And honestly, as this point, I think you make the move regardless of what the staff thinks because they won't be here much longer anyway.

No. You don't bury this franchise into the negative. You cut rhule and let fitterer being in his guy.

There are things bigger than football and winning. This is bigger than football and winning. Maintaining even the presumption of innocence is near impossible with the amount and nature of the allegations. I want the team to win but I'll never root for a team that will sell its soul to do it.

Leveraging more of our future to trade for yet another Quarterback, especially with his current future uncertainty, would be an astronomically stupid idea. We are not a QB away and we're already low on assets with which to try and fix our problems. 

I agree, but this ship is already sinking.  And again, its not looking like the staff will be around to go down with it if this keeps up.   And we could just as well blow the dame amount of draft picks trying to find a franchise QB and still fail if we take that route. 

But, I don't expect it to cost a king's ransom, as this is also with the idea in mind that Houston doesn't have much leverage either.  He doesn't want to be there, he has legal troubles hanging over him, and he will not play another down for them...  it can only end one way, it's a matter of the price to play.
