Russell Wilson fell off a cliff midway through the season. Wilson was all you heard about in the MVP race for the first half of the season, but 70% of his TDs came from the first 8 weeks of the season. Why would you cast a vote for him when Aaron Rodgers was clearly better?

That's why the superbowl thing is purely situational. Seahawks at their worst with wilson have never been a worse environment or more incompetent than the Texans. |

Well... He's never really had one of those years where he torched the league. He's just been consistently good on a team that limits pass attempts.
Even now that hes gotten his yards up he's had to play in a league where Mahomes goes off for 5000 yards and 50 TDs, Lamaar Jackson pulls 36 TDs out of his ass while smashing the QB rushing record, and Aaron Rodgers drinks from the fountain of youth. What year is Russell's best argument for getting MVP snubbed? 2015 when Newton won? That's a tough sell when Newton led a team that typically didnt win to a 15-1 record and Russell's team didn't even win their division. Last edited by jd1020; 02-21-2021 at 11:53 AM.. |

You don't know elite until you see them in the shit. There's performance, and then there's performance on the big stages. It's not his fault yet, heck the Rams are gambling that it's not Stafford's fault yet either. But Watson remains promising and intriguing, which is different [but not incompatible with] elite. For instance, Romo spent an entire career at promising and intriguing, . . . Rivers too. Neither cracked elite.

One big thing that knocks Deshaun IMO is his awful loss to us in the divisional round.
He got spotted a 24 point lead, had Hopkins and all of his weapons healthy, want playing a great defense (no Chris Jones that game) and he just fizzled out badly.

Playoff game against the Colts is even worse in my mind. Easily the most talented iteration of the Texans defense Watson had with Clowney and Mathieu, and the offense managed just 7 against the Colts.

That is the game that pushed me from thinking Deshaun may in fact become an elite QB to Deshaun's a good QB, but the chances of him winning more than just a few playoff games, but he'll never make a SB.

That first half was flukish all the way around. We gave them 14 points, if not 17, on the way to their 24-0 lead. Then they turned right around and gifted us those points right back in the second quarter.

You can take a QB already in the league or you can draft one that has entered the draft. So the Jags take Mahomes at his current contract with full liability for the remainder of his signing bonus etc as if they had been the team that had originally signed that contract in the first place not KC. So essentially they trade positions with KC. Then what happens?
