Watson has done nothing to make him a good QB. You don't know anything until year 3. There was a time when Sanchez and Cassel we called good QBs. We made Watson look bad. He threw a bunch of luck balls all over when the game was lost. Take out those stats and he sucked.

Watson had like what 75 yards passing 3 minutes into the 4st quarter? He was largely ineffective. He was inaccurate and plain bad. When the Chiefs went into prevent defense with a 19 point lead he just threw bombs...and our secondary isn't the best without Berry back there. I don't get the Watson love. I'm so glad the Chiefs passed on him.

We won't know until the young QBs try to take the next step.

Watson seems to have guys that can jump pretty well. But I haven't seen him throw a pro pass yet. Just lucky hail Mary's.

Meanwhile I've seen Mahomes make throws already that even our Probowl MVP QB can't make.

Mahomes couldn't have fallen into a better learning environment...he's watching his mentor have a career season and what he's doing to achieve it. ...so much good going on right now. If Mahomes inherits 75% of Smith's clinical awareness...he'll be a monster. |

Watson reminds me of Derek Carr - misses shorter throws badly, misreads coverages badly, but has some good receivers who are able to win battles on deep balls. Doesn't make him bad, per se, but as Kerwin said today you can't win a championship that way. Maybe he learns how to play better -- but I wouldn't trade Mahomes for Watson even after the first month of this season. |

The Texans are running a spread offense based around the option and Watson's main role as a passer is to chuck up jump balls against single coverage down the field. And he's been really inaccurate even in this limited role, which was always the main concern about him. He's shown good intangibles, but I still don't know that he'll even become a good starting QB in this league.

All he has to do is is throw it in the area so that his receiver can track it, get into position. The is no real accuracy involved, and this just the stupidest take. His guys won the jump balls. That was it. |
