Does anyone care that Watson threw three INTs yesterday?

Even with the picks, his rating was 106.9. (Pro Bowl QB) Trubisky didn't complete 50% of his passes. Even if you give him the Miller TD, his rating is probably 70 or 80.

It is very possible that Watson will be better than Trubiski. My judgement on Watson was wrong. In my defense he did throw 17 fucking interceptions last year in college. That's horrific. But he might have Montana "IT" factor.

All that being said, it is very ignorant to ignore the talent level of the Texans WR's vs the shit show the Bears have. Braxton Miller is the best WR on the Bears, hands down.

I'm back on forth with Pace. He's had some great hits in the draft, esp the last two years...but in other aspects he has been so bad. The Bears WR problem was due to his pride. They didn't pursue better WR options because he wanted the #1 job open for Kevin White. Well now that's fucked over the entire team, including his QB.

Shit, he had Smith-Shuster staring him down in Round 2 and took a TE that can't even see the field it seems.

The Shaheen pick may be his most important pick he has ever made. When you draft a quarterback that high you have to give him young talent to mature with. If Shaheen can't get catches with the lack of talent on the field then how can you trust him to build a quality offense?

The defense is probably saving him though. They are really holding strong.

I think you are blowing the "trade up" out of proportion a bit though..It's like this. If Trubiksi becomes a franchise QB, nobody will care about the trade up. If Pace had stayed at 3(no trade up), drafted Trubiski and he became a bust, Pace is fired anyways. The picks really don't matter that much.

The Bears are deep at TE. That has changed. I better see Shaheen getting Miller throws coming out of the break.

You might be disappointed..after Miller got hurt, Daniel Brown was the "next man up", not Shaaheen.

3. The injury to Miller in the third quarter pressed Daniel Brown into action and he wound up with one reception for 9 yards. Brown wound up getting 17 snaps the remainder of the way, including the failed two-point conversion in the fourth quarter and plays wiped out by penalty. I thought Brown was in position to challenge Miller for a roster spot when the offseason program began. I thought so because Brown made a nice little debut for the Bears last season after being claimed off waivers from the Ravens. I thought so because we knew Miller is injury prone and figured there was a chance the Bears would opt to move a veteran out of the way in order to create playing time for a younger player. I proved to be wrong and in retrospect, it made sense to keep Miller. The Bears are offensively challenged and he was unquestionably the team’s best red zone target in the passing game.

Yes it is

Brown is higher on the depth chart.

Watson being this good is an indictment of Pace. You had to give up a ton of picks because you didn't want Watson if the low odds of (Pro Bowl QB) Trubisky being gone actually happened?

Fire Pace.

Richard Sherman: Deshaun Watson best QB to have played Seahawks

Cornerback Richard Sherman had high praise for rookie quarterback Deshaun Watson after the Seattle Seahawks outlasted the Houston Texans 41-38 in an epic shootout Sunday.

Sherman shared a long embrace with Watson after the game and told the Texans' budding star how much he respected him. He shared his message to Watson with The MMQB.com in a telephone interview Sunday night.

"'You played the best game any quarterback has ever played against us, and we've played all the legends. I respect how you hung in there and kept battling and battling,'" he said.

Watson threw four more touchdown passes Sunday, bringing his season total to 19 through his first seven career NFL games, breaking a record previously held by Kurt Warner, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.

Watson's fourth touchdown gave the Texans a 38-34 lead before Russell Wilson rallied the Seahawks in the final minute with the game-winning touchdown to tight end Jimmy Graham.

Watson finished 19-of-30 for 402 yards and 3 interceptions, including a first-quarter pick-six. Sherman picked off two of Watson's passes, including his desperation heave in the final seconds to seal the Seahawks' victory. He came out of the game with deep respect for Watson.

"My God, Houston's so lucky. By next year he's going to be a top-five quarterback in this league, and that includes the two big dogs [Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers]. He makes you dig to the deepest part of your competitive juices to beat him," he told The MMQB.com.

Wilson had to record his first 400-yard passing game in his career to get the best of Watson, finishing with a career-best 452 passing yards, 4 touchdown passes and 1 interception. He too, came away impressed with Watson.

"He's a special, special player, and I'm going to love watching him play in the next few years," Wilson told The MMQB.com. "He was so good today, so special. I told him on the field, 'God is good. Keep putting the hard work in. It'll keep showing.'"

Sherman told reporters after the game that after playing against Watson he now knows how other players feel about trying to defend Wilson. He pointed to Watson's second-to-last touchdown pass, in which he spun away from pressure and completed a scoring pass to running back Lamar Miller in the end zone.

"He's back there just like A-Rod is, ducked under one, stepped back from another one, spins off another one, and hits the open guy. Has there ever been a rookie that does that? It would be hard to find. Maybe [Michael] Vick from time to time; he was very special in the pocket.

"But, it wasn't like he was getting out to run. He was getting out to look up and find the open guy. He's going to be a special player in this league. He made plays that very few people in this league, including the top-tier guys, can make," he said.

Wilson told reporters that, in his opinion, the Rookie of the Year discussion is closed.

"Deshaun Watson is special. I mean go ahead and give him Rookie of the Year, he is a great player. I love watching him," he said.

Laurence Holmes is a fucking weirdo, a nerd in denial, and a wannabe. Not a very good radio host either.

Have the Cutty apologists become the Mitch apologists?

Playa' will never love a Chicago QB

Laurence Holmes is a fucking weirdo, a nerd in denial, and a wannabe. Not a very good radio host either.

I hope the guy is great, i just didn't see it in college or now and i hear dozens of excuses. I see open guys he doesn't see or get the ball to.

[Fields will] be the starting QB on an NFL roster at the start of next season. Book It!

There will never be an effective vaccine. I'll never get one anyway.

Seems like you two dopes have the answer for everything. Why don't you take over as GM and QB and see if you can fix things for the Bear.

What would be a good game? Just curious given this WR corps and OC.

I'm a big dumb shitlib baby

Right now, this isn’t debatable because Watson looks like a generational talent. If he keeps his current pace, there’s likely no way (Pro Bowl QB) Trubisky can compete with it. That’s not a knock of (Pro Bowl QB) Trubisky.

FF and others would say that's a knock on Pace though.
