It will be pretty interesting to see how he does. We don’t have a lot of data on how a yearslong break from the game affects QB skills. In his case, I certainly hope it is a strong negative effect. OTOH that would bode ill for Kap, in case things didn’t look plenty bleak for him already.

Le’Veon sat out one year and went from perennial all-pro to washed and quickly out of the league. But there’s really no comparison between the hell an RBs body goes through and a QB (other than Cam) so probably can’t conclude anything from that. It would be extremely funny though if he just sucks rear end now.

Michael Vick had some drop in skill but was helped by having Andy Reid for his coach. I don’t know anything about Stefanski. Well I just learned I’m a year older than him

Still doesn't explain his absolute disappearing act with the Chiefs though, I figured Reid could make good use out of him.

Well I just learned I’m a year older than him Vick looked really awful that first year with the Eagles, and even heading into his second season on the team they went with Kolb as starter until he got hurt. Vick could still show flashes of his old self, but he did do more of the off the field stuff too, like actually watching game film. The main difference is that the Eagles weren't expecting much from Vick and it was a flyer for them. The Browns just gave up everything and need Watson to be good right now.

That’s not enough to say he looked like anything, good or bad.

I hope Watson sucks whenever he plays. He should never play another down, but it would be fitting for him to be absolutely terrible.

NFL: "We're thinking about suspending you at least a year." Watson: "I was thinking more along… zero." NFL: "You drive a hard bargain."

Suspended for 17 games spread across the next two seasons and the Browns are forced to spin a giant game show wheel each Friday to determine if he gets to play that week or not until he hits 17.

banning him from just the playoffs would punish the texans too, they get a lovely draft pick and psychologically I'm sure it'd be so frustrating

Yeah if they really honestly suspend him for a season then that means by the time he could theoretically play again there will definitely be either 1) more accusations or 2) more clarity on existing ones in terms of public evidence

Wonder if the PA is going to be able to argue it down. But yeah this seems like the best way to handle it from the nfl’s side. Hope they follow through

So does the cash for Watson’s entire contract remain stuck in escrow so that Haslem can’t even get it back temporarily? I hope so because that’s loving funny.

considering the revelation that the texans themselves tried to help watson cover things up I really wish they'd do something in a way that doesn't explicitly reward them by making the browns send a high draft pick over suspend watson for a year? ok then also strip the pick

The Browns are just going to spin tires for a year with Brissett or MAYBE trade for a Garappolo or Minshew if things get desperate. Way too many bridges burned with Baker.
