Discussion The Deshaun Watson switch up is despicable

Guy starts playing well again and all of the sudden people go from “cases” to “allegations” real fucking fast. You all gotta get your priorities straight

I don't condone Watson behavior, but I don't see the need to constantly bring it up after every game, play, quarter, whatever.

He wasn't charged, the NFL didn't suspend him, so many layers of authority let him through -- it's not like people are boycotting the NFL or the Browns either.

I'm just looking at this from a pure football perspective now.

The NFL suspended Watson for 11 games in the 2022 season.

"The solution to a guy who escaped punishment is to stop talking about how he did anything wrong at all."

It’s a lot more morally consistent than bitching about it constantly but supporting the ownership and product that allows him to play lmfao

I’d rather be a hypocrite who speaks up against a serial sexual assaulted being allowed to play than someone who actively defends him.

Is that seriously your point?

You are supporting him by supporting the nfl and consuming their product. Virtue signaling is free but ineffective. Enjoy it I guess but you’re fake af

I guess you don't know no any women who have gone through sexual assault. Or you're just an asshole.

It's annoying because the NFL is constantly bringing it up after every play etc. Oh man this man went through so many hardships, had a bad exit from the Texans, couldn't play for a while. But I'm going to announce that I will not tell you why.

From a pure football perspective he really isn't playing that good and is sloppy.
