Forget flacco, browns had a perfectly good Baker coming off of 1 injury season and management decided his last 3 years meant nothing and he was as good as his injury year... So they invested $230mil and 3 first round picks in a QB with legal problems... Most Brown's thing ever
@@orwoodwellson685Deshaun Watson would have failed miserably in Cleveland. He would have had a Deshone Kizer career. Bill O'Brien and DeAndre Hopkins made Deshaun's career successful in Houston.
Yeah but then Flacco came in and showed them they still have a decent team and they clearly thought "Oh he's too good to be a QB of the Browns, we're gonna stick with the walking turd with a goatee".
As a Texans fan who watched DW4 and now CJ, I can understand the reasons for DW4 massive regression. DW4 relied heavily on heroball and foolishly makes it harder for himself. He plays with no anticipation and lacks pocket awareness. He scrambles out of clean pockets too often instead of stepping forward. His style of play is more of a scrambling around and throw to who he sees open. Regardless of his stats in Houston, the most glaring red flags were his low scoring percentage in the red zone, far worse than other average QBs. So when CJ arrived, it was a stark difference in the success of the offense. CJ understood coverages, shifting his oline protection, and picking defenses apart. DW4 was a much superior athlete and a threat as a runner. But CJ pocket movements and awareness made him more effective avoiding sacks by ridding the ball quickly and playing with anticipation
CJ reminds me a lot of 2010s Aaron Rodgers. The pocket presence & subtle movements to create space, pinpoint accuracy on difficult throws, understanding when to throw with touch & not, and then the athleticism to make big throws on the run or pick up key first downs with his legs. And it all looks very clean. Once defenses figure out a "hero ball" type of guy, these QBs typically have a hard time overcoming this because they lean on athleticism and off-script plays to create big plays. Defenses will copy whichever team figured out how to minimize their big play ability. This is how we see the "sudden" downfall of guys like Deshaun Watson & Russell Wilson. Our opinions of QBs are often influenced by highlight plays. But in the NFL, the skills of a QB are based on nuanced decision making, footwork, pre-snap/post-snap reads, etc, which can often go unseen by the regular fan.
@@GMoney507no one said he didn’t. No one said Watson didn’t have a great 3 in a half years in Houston either. But defenses have figured them out and both are a step slower now than they used to be which makes them even more ineffective in todays nfl. No one was talking about how they used to be lmao most QB’s become washed before they retire it’s just the way it is.
@@GMoney507 I didn’t say anything about that. I’m talking about his style of play and why it doesn’t work anymore. When Russ takes a snap, he is looking for an opportunity to scramble, which doesn’t work since he has lost a step. All of that goes back to my original point. It’s the difference why Russ career is basically done and why Brady can play until he’s 45.
New to the channel, the video was really well made and am surprised to see you only 10K subs. Hope you start getting more cause this content was really easy to digest the info while getting some good laughs.
thats true but if their is anyone in the NFL that deserves to be bashed regardless of how they actually play its watson. Horrible person and horrible player
@@riydI used to get so much sht for saying he was overrrated and part of the reason the Texans sucked. Like yeah, the talent was there, he wasn't a bad QB. Just not all that good either and extremely inconsistent
I love how Pittman has sucked all year, and then Joe Flacco comes in and Pittman is great reciever. Same thing happened last year with Minshew. It’s almost like Richardson isn’t a good QB…..
Yeah but we still have to see these idiotic franchises draft QB’s based on potential and not actually being good. I’m so tired of these “mobile QB’s will have more potential” prospects being drafted and every one sucking ass in the nfl and we have to watch them for years until the franchise learns they suck. Get a QB who knows how to play QB.
Rewind to 2013 & Flacco reset the QB pay market for the position after winning superbowl MVP, Very ironic when you look at how much Watson is making now. (Actually twice as much as Flacco was signed for at the time for in 2013 which was record setting at the time). There was also an article published by the NYTIMES in 2020 about why dont the TEXANS use Watson in play action more??? Then an entire chart illustrating how much better he is in play action. Deshaun Watson is in love with the Shotgun.
Matt Ryan, Nick Foles, and now Joe Flacco -- the Colts sure do love aging pocket passers with Super Bowl experience. Seems like a smart backup QB strategy tbh.
Almost guarantee Watson’s camp had insisted DW4 didn’t have competition and the Browns upper management obliged. Of the many many many reasons why they should have kept Flacco the easiest for all to understand-Give the creep DW4 some fu**ing competition at the least for Christ sake’s. He’s looking over his shoulder after a bad drive?!? GOOD
They didn't want to pressure Watson because they knew as soon as Watson had one bad game fans would be chanting to bench Watson for Flacco Flacco even said he would've came back but they didn't even give him a call
Flacco should of been competing against D Watson for the starting job in Cleveland. Instead he didn`t even receive a phone call from Andrew Berry and they signed famous Jameis Winston.
Because they wanted to protect Watsons "feelings" if flacco were the starter instead on watson at the bare minimum they're 4-2 and would be competing for the division. I'm not saying flacco is better then burrow or jackson but he's a vet who knows how to compete and keep his team in games. With flacco you believe with watson you keep praying for something that'll never happen, they keep wishing for him to become what he used to be and tbh what he used to be wasn't that good anyway. I believe the year they had that lead on on Kansas City in the playoffs was their best year to win it all because once the league caught up to him he couldn't apadapt
Andrew Barry wouldn't even speak to Joe Flacco at the end of the season. He actually had a employee. Give him his release papers he was too worried about bringing in James Winston. Who I saw play about a dozen times in Tampa? Who was the interception machine? But when the weather started to get a little cooler and rain a little bit in Florida, he was a complete turnover machine. If he is going to be Cleveland's quarterback and the weather's starting to change. Now it's going to be just as bad, but at least he's gonna try to win. Unlike Watson is just there for a paycheck.
Baker had too much pressure to win a SB in Cleveland. He doesn't have that pressure in TB since Tom Brady won previously. He's not good enough. He looks so appealing now compared to DW4. The Browns ownership would rather score political points than get a talented QB. The fans should stop giving them money, and stop watching them.
Flacco has proven that if you give him the right tools then he can be elite. The problem in Baltimore was that after he won a SB MVP in a contract year, the Ravens had to give him a monster contract. If you only have enough $$$ to give him mediocre tools then he can be mediocre. Still, there are plenty of QB busts who couldn't be elite no mater how many tools you give them. Flacco has proven what he can do, and I am not surprised that he can still win in the NFL.
All the signs were there in week 11 of the 2019 season when Watson's brand of heroball went face first into a competent defense in Baltimore. It was clear he couldn't read defenses, particularly when even hamfistedly disguised, and simply bailed after his first or second read. Folks were convinced that he would outpace Lamar Jackson in a shootout, but it turned into a 41-7 laugher as he was simply unable to get beyond the coach's instruction.
deshaun watson career ended as a texan in 2020 the rest of this is nothing more then dysfunctional front office management praying and hoping a player that suffers major injury and sits for a whole year is going to heal up like nothing ever happened. the browns deserve this. they had a great QB in Baker. instead of focusing on a TEAM they only focus on a QB. the dumbest front office in the league. honestly, i would rather have bill o'brien and dan snyder running my team than the browns people.
Deshaun ranks 32nd in qbr and yards per attempt, 29th in passer rating, and 29th in completion percentage. Meanwhile baker leads the nfl with 13 tds and only 2 picks, flacco looks great too. Cut watson, fire berry.
First Brown's mistake, Baker for Watson. Second Brown's mistake, Flacco for Watson. Browns don't know how to leave things alone when they are working!!!
Flacco's issue is mobility. He hasn't been able to move at all since 2017 so teams just blitz and he's hurt or has to throw it away. The browns last year and this years colts had great o lines when healthy though so he was a good fit. Flacco would die behind the current browns line. Watson is still the biggest issue with that offense, but it wouldn't be much better with joe.
I mean you could just ignore this entire video on how flaccos pocket awareness is 100x better than Watson, or we can go by the facts and realize Flacco would succeed on most NFL teams, where as Watson could not.
Also plenty of “non-mobile” QB’s have had good seasons behind bad o-lines because they have excellent pocket awareness, anticipation and good touch. I’m so tired of this “well a QB has to be mobile to be good” thing tossed around the last year or two. Was Brady mobile? Big Ben mobile? Peyton manning mobile? Montana mobile? No none of them were in the slightest mobile, but are all considered some of the best QB’s of all time. Being mobile doesn’t mean you’re automatically better. In fact, how many mobile QB’s have won a SB as a matter of fact?
I appreciate the football analysis, but I also think Watson's problems can be broken down in a very simple, and psychological sense. And I believe that perspective also matters. Lets be honest brother, most NFL fans rightfully despise this guy. Most Cleveland fans absolutely do. And I'm sure even his teammates to varying extents, despise him as well. With all that vitriol against you, what is your incentive to improve if you're Deshaun Watson? I mean we can sit here and say go do the job you're paid for and yes that's correct, but honestly I just think that even if Deshaun improved to return to old form or even win Cleveland a Superbowl, that hate for what he did in Houston would exist regardless (which is fair). He already showed signs of being sluggish in his return to football, and now that honestly most Cleveland and NFL fans have embraced that Deshaun is an awful human and bad athlete, I genuinely just think he's gonna collect a check at this point and deal with his line and team having no faith in him. Part of the reason Watson took leaps with the Texans is that pre-allegations, he was well liked and was a symbol of a brighter future; he had the support of the organization and fans, which was a huge motivator likely improve and study film. And yes, lot of this even with that said is still absolutely Deshaun's fault, but I'm sorry the Cleveland Browns have to take some responsibility as well here. Paying someone that much guaranteed money when he hadn't brought you to the playoffs yet, and his name was in the news during the early allegations, is a recipe for utter disaster. Watson is an awful QB, but the Browns prove time and time again that they are a dysfunctional Organization, and I think both deserve equal blame here. I feel awful for Browns fans though, they do not deserve this trainwreck of poor ownership and management.
The browns could’ve got both of them, could they not? Why would the browns take Winston over Flacco. I get the age but they act like winston has put up anything decent. Flacco should’ve been the 2nd string
If I am the Brownies I´d write off my loss and take the bitter pill, not by benching DW, but by trading James, Cooper, Garret, Ward, Conclin for future pics. Also Stefanski, most overrated coach in the league, if someone offer something for him, he would be in the block. I´d take Watsons' cap hit fullest and earliest possible. I´d start to buils a team for 2026
Basically the same Texans did when Watson, O brien and the evangelic guy situations hit the fan simultaneously. Rookies and journeymen for a couple of years. With some very young guys, like Jerry Jodie, in the mix
They can't take Watson's full cap hit, if they cut him now it's almost *100 million dollars, for multiple years.* They have to ride out his contract, trade whoever's left for whatever they can get, and THEN start rebuilding. 2026? Try 2028, maybe 2030.
@@dubvuchyea502He’s right. Most of these GM’s don’t have the balls to do these sort of things and then never pull the plug and end up in purgatory for years, just like the browns have been in for the last 25 years. That’s why there’s only 8-10 NFL teams who have been seriously competing over the last 20 years and all the other teams have sucked outside of a few fluke years.
This is one of the dumbest takes on the Internet... Watson is playing terrible but if you put Flacco behind the Oline that the browns have this year he would be getting sacked every 5 seconds and probably on the PUP list by now... This team is NOT the same team that Flacco was balling out with last year... Also, The Colts have one of the best Olines in the NFL... Please, do your actual research before making dumb as comments.
Here's why Flacco ruined it? For Watson and the Browns, Flacco was playing beautiful, almost perfect football with Cleveland. Watson is just there for a paycheck and was gonna try a little bit. But when Watson saw all the fans pretty much gravitate to Flacco, everybody was saying it get rid of Watson and have Flacco i was at 3 of the Flacco games. The games that Watson walked out on the field. Everybody completely booed him and everybody start saying. asshole asshole. I believe it got to him mentally and you're seeing it right now. Watson was butt. Hurt, so he's just there for a paycheck. And this is why he is doing this to this season. In my opinion, the offense aligned in receivers. Then the defense all picked up on this. Why are they gonna put their heart and soul in it? For a quarterback, that's just here for a paycheck and not gonna try to win anything if your quarterback's not trying to win, it doesn't matter what any other players do on the team. It's funny though. Everybody wants to blame the owner. Andrew Verry is the one who wanted Watson. Andrew Berry showed the owner over and over again and tried talking him up. In my opinion, somebody with all the red flags and doesn't want to come and play for your team and you offer him a king's ransom. Then he says yes, he played it perfectly. Fake's injury for the first 4 years in this year. And next, he'll just go on the field and go through emotions and not try to win. This is their worst trade. In NFL history. And in sports, Andrew Berry and Watson have completely destroyed a franchise and sent them back to 2029.
watson QBR rating was 8.5 against the commanders, under 10 is considered a felony. he sucks, pay him his 86 million and walk away, lick your wounds and move on. He is a disaster for the browns. bring back Flacco

This is one of the dumbest takes on the Internet... Watson is playing terrible but if you put Flacco behind the Oline that the browns have this year he would be getting sacked every 5 seconds and probably on the PUP list by now... This team is NOT the same team that Flacco was balling out with last year... Also, The Colts have one of the best Olines in the NFL... Please, do your actual research before making dumb as comments.
Here's why Flacco ruined it? For Watson and the Browns, Flacco was playing beautiful, almost perfect football with Cleveland. Watson is just there for a paycheck and was gonna try a little bit. But when Watson saw all the fans pretty much gravitate to Flacco, everybody was saying it get rid of Watson and have Flacco i was at 3 of the Flacco games. The games that Watson walked out on the field. Everybody completely booed him and everybody start saying. asshole asshole. I believe it got to him mentally and you're seeing it right now. Watson was butt. Hurt, so he's just there for a paycheck. And this is why he is doing this to this season. In my opinion, the offense aligned in receivers. Then the defense all picked up on this. Why are they gonna put their heart and soul in it? For a quarterback, that's just here for a paycheck and not gonna try to win anything if your quarterback's not trying to win, it doesn't matter what any other players do on the team. It's funny though. Everybody wants to blame the owner. Andrew Verry is the one who wanted Watson. Andrew Berry showed the owner over and over again and tried talking him up. In my opinion, somebody with all the red flags and doesn't want to come and play for your team and you offer him a king's ransom. Then he says yes, he played it perfectly. Fake's injury for the first 4 years in this year. And next, he'll just go on the field and go through emotions and not try to win. This is their worst trade. In NFL history. And in sports, Andrew Berry and Watson have completely destroyed a franchise and sent them back to 2029.
watson QBR rating was 8.5 against the commanders, under 10 is considered a felony. he sucks, pay him his 86 million and walk away, lick your wounds and move on. He is a disaster for the browns. bring back Flacco
