He didn't have many bad throws other than the INT. They weren't all perfect, but none were horrible or even bad. He must've learned some footwork and mechanics quickly.

Didn't take long to cross out that expectation. Bobbythegreat Kendrick Lamar said: Leave it to Houston to draft the worst of the rookie qbs in round 1. This dude won't pan out. But do you feel like that today? RudyT43 said:I am not sold one bit on Deshaun being "the guy" moving forward. So how do you feel now? Mr. Clutch said:Why do you use two first round picks for a QB who can't throw the ball good? Sigh. Why did we use two first round picks on him? Mr. Clutch said:No one is saying Savage is any good either. We may have two QBs worse than Brock Osweiler. Mr. Clutch said:I just can't get passionate about defending either guy. They just don't have the ability to succeed. You might lack quality football knowledge. Bennie Anders said:You trailer-trash are so ignorant you looked at film of Watson's entire college career, when he had no accuracy and regularly almost led the NCAA in interceptions per pass attempt. But you Cletuses went "woo hoo" when Rick Smith again showed he has no competence with first-round offense picks. Thoughts? Texian said: Drops his eyes after first read/feeling pressure, tucks and runs. We drafted a really, really nice Johnny Manziel. I'm unsure if this is a compliment or not, but I don't like it. @Bobbythegreat @Kendrick Lamar @RudyT43 @Mr. Clutch @Bennie Anders
For sure, I wasn't knocking him, just saying that he can make a persuasive case for anything. Yeah, I know, he had a very good game, I was just pointing out an example of when things don't go well. It doesn't take long at all to learn the right things to do, it takes a long time to drill them into your head to where they are second nature. Even though he put together a good game that is very encouraging, I don't think we should be busting out the "Mission Accomplished" signs just yet. I want to see him build on this good game and not have a relapse back into bad habits as the season goes on.
Bobby DID say that Watson won't be good this season and stated that he had a LONG way to go and a LOT of work to do in order to be an Alex Smith level QB at some point in the future. That comparison alone was insulting to Watson. Alex Smith was horrible his first 3 seasons in the NFL. Watson in his 2nd start has already played better than Alex Smith did in any game his rookie season. Even though Bobby never said that Watson won't ever be good, he set his NFL ceiling pretty low and stressed how difficult it would be for Watson to ever achieve that fairly low bar.
Just for those who don't really know what's going on in the NFL Alex Smith 7TD 0 INT 132.7 QB rating 258 yards per game Cheifs undefeated with the 3rd most potent offense in the NFL Carry on.
They have yet to play a good defense in my opinion. I do like Alex Smith as a QB though. Hes been underrated.
A fair point, I was just showing that a QB being compared to Alex Smith wasn't an insult.....then again, I don't think that people who know about football would have thought it was to begin with, I just had to spell it out for those who don't know football.
The great thing is he seems to be getting better. I'm honestly excited to watch the QB play. Freaking making video game moves out there and looking more comfortable passing
Such an insecure man you are. Nobody knows football but bobbay. We are not worthy. We are not worthy. You brought up Alex Smith insinuating that Watson would hope to become a game manager at best. Alex Smith is playing better than a game manager atm. They're airing it out way more than year's past. Remember when he didn't throw a TD for like a whole season to a wide-out? I do. Clever spin. We don't believe you. You need more people.
Andy Reid's playbook is bezerk at this point. He truly runs a college offense in the NFL. Has to be the hardest offense to game plan for in the league. Luckily, I think the Texans front 7 can give them issues.
Alex Smith's body of work is mediocre. It took him a LONG time to become above average. Bobby didn't say that Watson can become Alex Smiths career best year. He said he can become Alex Smith, which consists of many middling seasons, some really bad seasons, and maybe a couple of career years if you count 3 games this year.
Lol really? He’s having a career year through the first three games. You didn’t know he was going to play like that. Lol does make your comparison better though huh
That first video where he breaks about 5 tackles and still has the arm strength and accuracy to hit Foreman was just amazing. Vick, Cunningham, and possibly Steve Young only qbs ever would be athletic enough to make that play.
