The Browns are really rolling the dice. If Watson makes one more misstep he could easily end up banned from the NFL. It's a real gamble.
High stakes for quality QBs are over and it's been reduced to a peanut scramble. After today, it's just colossal goat-fucks and Geno Smith.
ATS = against the spread

Originally posted by Velo View PostLooking at some of these QB plays teams have made these past few days again makes me appreciate Herbert and how fortunate the Chargers and their fans are to have landed him so quickly after the best QB in franchise history moved on.
First, the Browns' trading for DeShaun Watson, selling their soul and their financial and draft future for a QB who brings a big dark cloud with him. The weather is already bad enough in Cleveland.
How is Matt Ryan (traded to the Colts) an upgrade over Carson Wentz? How is he an upgrade over Rivers for that matter? Three seasons, three different QBs - two of them aging veterans. I guess the owner and the GM really did not like Wentz - maybe because of his vax stance, but something about Wentz or something he did really alienated the people who matter in Indy.
How is Marcus Mariota an upgrade over Matt Ryan? I'm not sure why the Falcons would be so keen to make that move. Mariota had some moments as a back up and sometimes alternative to Carr in Las Vegans, it seemed like a role he was suited for. But he didn't make it as a starter in Tennessee; I thought he would be a career back up.
Neither of these teams were interested in trading for Baker Mayfield or Jimmy GQ; the value of these two surplus QBs has gone down; the pool of QB needy teams has evaporated down to just a few.
Again, feeling blessed for Herbert.
I'd be curious to read what Colt fans think they have in Matt Ryan......it seems like a desperation move quite frankly.
They'd be better off if they had Rivers.....there, i just said it.

Jeff George marched to a different drummer. He was proof that arm strength alone wasn't good enough in the NFL.
The Chargers had an extremely strong armed QB years ago. He was Dan's backup, Ed Luther. They said he could throw a football through a brick wall but they never could prove it because he always missed the wall.THE YEAR OF THE FLIP!

Too bad he was a lousy quarterback.
Everything Ortmayer touched on the Chargers turned to shit. He was the opposite of King Midas.
