Yeah, fans and players are the same.

Yeah, in this discussion they are. Everyone wants to win but at what cost, right? He isn’t worth the cost. Too many red flags.

I’m fairly confident in saying no NFL player would care if Watson is a teammate to the detriment of the team. Players put up with Roethlisberger, Riley Cooper, Greg Hardy, Mixon, Favre, Vick, Culpepper and every Viking on their sex cruise, and several others. If no criminal charges come out of this, he’ll be accepted into the locker room. 

I'd rather have Rodgers for 4 years than the long-term upside of Watson. Watson has never scared me despite the stats. Shoot me.

I’d rather have Rodgers because Watson is a ma fuuggin perv looking to get his Willy stroked. Yeah most of those €unts are probably just looking for a couple bucks but he did some $hitt to get himself in this mess.

None of these players really won anything other than Roethlisberger after their allegations. Just because they were put up with doesn’t mean they were successful or liked in the locker room. Especially Cooper and Hardy.

That’s an entirely different argument and only supports my original point. Players that didn’t win anything and were borderline scrubs like Cooper were able to share a locker room after doing pretty abhorrent things that I’m confident in saying offended more teammates than the Watson allegations.

Or Golden Tate who allegedly banged his own teammates wife. I’m not saying it’s right, but professional athletes sleep around. I’d be surprised if anyone holds a harsh opinion about Watson.

Yup the worst case scenario is Ertz shows up and gets hurt and the eagles are on the books for his remaining salary 

Just another reason to not let him get anywhere near the field 

If I were Ertz I'd be sick of all Howie's BS as well.

Ertz is a super bowl hero and will go down as an all time eagle legend yet Howie is trying to do him dirty to try and win some stupid game off-season game.

Just do what's right and cut the man and let him go to another team.

Howie is such an effin baby little Diva and Lurie is just as culpable for enabling the idiocy.

Just how is Howie "doing him dirty"?  Will he get paid if he shows up and plays? Yup I wish someone would do me dirty by paying me millions of dollars to play games for a living.

Im against a Watson trade.

1. We used a 2nd on Hurts. It’s worth giving him a chance. We have 2/3 1st round picks. If Hurts is a no go then we use those picks to find a QB. Regardless of trade or draft. It’s stupid to give up those options.

2. He is a wildcard. He went against his organization and then has sexual abuse allegations come up. I don’t care about stats in this case. Do you really want that guy leading your organization? There are other options.

Just look at this discussion. Half the people want him, half down. That tells me a locker room will be the same way. No one can follow a guy they don’t respect.

 

1.) Who cares what we used to get Hurts Watson is 4 times the q.b. that he is now and much more of a sure thing

2.) I doubt we trade for him if that isn't cleared up

3.) The locker room doesn't mirror what a buncha goofs in here think

Wasn't him, but I remember the argument was just before we played the Texans. We were going to get crushed because Watson literally couldn't be sacked

I would likely concur with that, and I don't even like Rodgers one bit

He got sued in NC for it in a criminal conversation or alienation of affection claim and the case settled a couple of years ago.

It’s more about playing with him then players being offended. The media distraction if he gets traded here is gonna be crazy. Especially in the Philly media. Those allegations are all we are gonna here about for a long time. All the players are gonna be asked about it. Fans are gonna bring it up every time he messes up. It’s not worth it for anyones sanity and you can’t tell me players wouldn’t be annoyed. It would be different if Watson was already on the team. But he isn’t and the team trading for him and causing the team to go through it with him is a mistake.

Also, is Watson even mentally strong enough to handle that? He couldn’t even handle the team hiring a GM without his input.
