    I love Deshaun. I refuse to believe he WASNT fully recovered. After his first ACL injury, he led Clemson to the national title game.

    Oh, he is fully recovered. He's just not fully coached.

    Okay doctors !

    I have said BoB's tenure here is wasted years of fandom. Tracy-Yao.

    Let me believe my injury theory and the soon-to-be stronger ACL overcomes BoB :)

    I sure hope he isn't doing this next year, and grows up a little. It's embarrassing to watch.

    it's hard to be at full health when you get sacked 60 times a season

    If you don't want to get sacked 60 times a season, then throw the ball away and learn how to do your job better. Those excuses would work for someone Like Derek Carr who had the fastest release in the NFL and was still sacked 50+ times, but when you are sacked 40+ times 4.5+ seconds after the snap, that's on you.

    "healthy" is a relative term. i doubt he was 100%

    While we were on that 9 game winning streak, everyone was screaming how Deshaun was finally healthy.

    Watson handles himself great. Everybody that has ever played with him says that. If you are embarassed that a player is celebrating first downs, then maybe you have a problem.

    He has a LOT of work to do to become a great NFL QB, he needs to read defenses better, needs to pickup the blitz and understand where his hot reads are, and he needs to stop holding the damned ball particularly in the Red Zone.

    He is an average NFL QB with good upside, ATM.

    Average QBs don't make NFL history in both of their first 2 years of play.

    Average QB yet his ratings and numbers were above average with the worst pass blocking unit in the NFL.

    Come on man.

    Deshaun Watson ranks 7th when kept clean and 1st when pressured in terms of passer rating

    I just find it a bit much, doing it on every single 1st down. No, all quarterbacks don't do that on every first down, especially when down by 21 points. It's like JJ doing his finger wag every time he gets a sack. At first it was funny, but then it got a bit old to me. I am just of the type that say let your actions speak for themselves. Andre Johnson was a perfect example of that. If you like it you aren't alone, just like I'm not alone in disliking it.
