He’s not in the same conversation as Alex at all. He’s significantly better.

Stats are stats. It's about much more than that.
Watson is a borderline top 12 QB. Nothing more.
Last year, he was about 7th by all the metrics. In 2018, he was around 11 or 12th. This year, he's between 13th and 15th.
Watson is the 2nd-highest paid QB in the league. His cap hits in years 3 and 4 are actually HIGHER than Mahomes'. He isn't even CLOSE to being worth that.
So as I said before, Houston is stuck with him.
