Is it pretty much a tie right now?

Upvote if you think that we get him and downvote if you think that the Falcons get him.


Give an answer why below

At this point, who the frick knows what's going on... I just really hope the whole backstory on what's going on behind closed doors gets released either way.

he knows the best place to go is tyhe saints, but he really wants to be the hero for his home team he grew up watching, its that simple.

he is giving alanta more time hoping they can pull some magic trick to let him pick the falcons without looking like a complete idiot who doesnt care if he never sees the playoffs again

Feels like the momentum is with Atlanta, the fact that pitts and Watson have the same agent tells me that the deal with Atlanta is in the works but they are trying to squeeze some more out of Houston and they can’t do that with pitts jumping the gun , so they told him to delete it.

That’s not what I want to be true but it’s what I’m thinking. Unless the poster that was talking about the barber shop situation is getting real info

ATL has almost NO leverage wtf are you talking about

ETA: misread agents are trying to squeeze more out of houston even though houston has all the leverage? still doesnt sound right

What I’m saying is it doesn’t make much sense why he would delete a post unless they told him to because the deal wasn’t quite done . Maybe they are trying to get away with paying less somehow

The leverage is the no trade clause . Watson could say I’m not signing off on anything unless you throw in a receiver that I’m friends with from Houston . Something like that

The only thing that makes any sense is Atlanta cannot pull this off in their current state. They are working ever angle possible to be able to make it work.
On the other hand the Saints have been ready and waiting for an answer. Atlanta will be gutted with both Matty and Watson not even counting all they will lose. It’s a great story him being a ball boy for them and playing there.
But come on, u play to win games and championships ur not that little boy anymore. The dude is out his mind if he really picks them. But with our history in these sweepstakes we usually don’t get the new shiny toy.
I tell ya Atlanta will really be hurting if their homeboy picks us. It will be a wonderful day in NOLA.

But Collin cowherd said Atlanta is exploding as a city. It’s the Mecca for young black men

He is a very talented QB. Not amazing, but talented.

However, do not want the guy. He is a piece of shite. Would rather see Winston in red and black and Watson. He must want to go to Atlanta because there will be a lot more people willing to massage his butthole. That or our stadium reminds him so much of his own, he wants to play in it half the season.
