Still makes a lot more sense to keep him so you have a QB this year if the rumors are true Watson is getting full year suspension.


The Bauer suspension is bullshite and this would be too. If they do decide to really drop the hammer on Watson though, I could see it stretching into 2023 because the league is supposedly reallllllly mad about the way that contract was structured.

If he sits they can fine him so they don't have to pay his full salary. I'm sure if a trade partner isn't realized they will just cut him.

Falcons and Seahawks seem content to wait till next year.
Tampa should make the trade, let him sit behind and learn from Brady and then you have a replacement.

I think his ego is way too big to let him quietly accept a backup job. He might have to eventually, but not yet.

Geno Smith didn’t look half bad in the few games he played last year,


You know what.. looking at Geno’s career stats he threw most of his picks as a rookie while still passing for 3K. Maybe he can still be a starter.

I’ll just never forget when he lined up under the guard in Tiger Stadium 2010
