Yeah, BoB's dumbassery certainly doesn't help him. [Reply]

I don't think either would have really been the wrong choice though. If Pat was anywhere else, I don't think he'd be doing what he's doing yet.
But putting him with Andy and company, yeah, that's the stuff. The Chiefs have done it perfectly, putting everything around and building with the QB. [Reply]
Watson is a good QB, but can we finally put to rest the notion that anything you did in college matters at all in the NFL when it comes to wins and losses?
Coaches dominate college. Not QBs. End of story. [Reply]

The Texans were desperate and had to start Watson in his rookie season. In that stupidly small sample size, you posed the question whether the Chiefs should have drafted Watson instead of Mahomes.
No, it's no ok, Deberg. It was a troll move. [Reply]
