Mini thread on @deshaunwatson & #Texans
Because I’m reading far too much BS from national mouthpieces who want to protect the Texans and the #NFL
This idea that Watson is going about everything wrong & disrespectfully is straight BS. Let’s use common sense here /1
Many national pundits claim Watson is handling things wrong because he’s shut off communication with the Texans & allowed “his team” to leak out various items about his being disgruntled.
These same ppl say Watson should not use media but go to team & talk behind closed doors /2
That’s a very team and league serving position for these national mouths to have. Always about protecting their access to the teams and the league.
Here’s the reality. Why would you continue to have talks with someone who clearly doesn’t give a damn what you have to say? /3
Watson was nominated by his team to bring issues to ownership. One of the biggest issues was the divisiveness & mistrust created & caused by Jack Easterby. The team’s lack of direction & lack of strong leadership. Deshaun brought these issues & more to Cal McNair during season /4
Cal McNair even spoke publicly that Jack Easterby wasn’t a “football ops” guy. Understood his role was more administrative & that he wouldn’t be involved in the GM or coaching search. He told Watson that the QB would be involved in those searched. /5
