Can Deshaun Watson be the next NFL QB to win his FIRST Super Bowl? | Cleveland Browns

It's not easy to win the Super Bowl, and as long as Patrick Mahomes is playing, a lot of really talented QBs will end their careers without one.
So of the NFL QBs that haven't won a Super Bowl yet, who's most likely to win their first ring next?
Where does Deshaun Watson fall on that list? The Cleveland Browns QB is super talented and has all the pieces in place around him to succeed, but his health is a giant question mark heading into next year.
Other than Watson, who is most likely to win their first SB Title next? Is it Joe Burrow? Lamar Jackson? Josh Allen? Brock Purdy? Someone else?
Can Deshaun Watson be the next NFL QB to win his first Super Bowl? Alongside Joe Burrow and Lamar Jackson in the AFC north the Cleveland Browns have no easy path to the Lombardy Trophy. What does Deshaun Watson truly need to be to lead this roster to the Super Bowl?

Watson is going to surprise a lot of people this year and I mean in a good way

[@user-th1on4mb2b]

Deshaun is our QB and nothing can change that and giving how his stay here has been, I'll still roll with Deshaun all the way to the Superbowl we all look towards this until it happens and true fans are not going to loose that. We're going to really prove the league wrong this season Go Browns!!!

[@richardfratus7726]

Jay hates to be contradicted, doesn't he?? C'mon...let everybody finish their thoughts!!

[@howtoolive6387]

You need to look at watsons games not his stats half the games he played they were beating the other team so badly he didn’t have to throw a lot. Aka bengals titans cardinals

[@WSAMP24]

yea but when he does have to throw he ranks 38th in QBR. and only completes 59% of passes over last 2 years

[@troll_hunter9141]

Not a chance. Guaranteed money = low effort. That’s what guaranteed money buys a team.

[@derekbrown7111]

lol “ Deshaun and Herbert are basically the same player with their contracts”……….. Last two years Herbert: 45 TDs 17 ints….93.0 rating Watson : 14 TDs 9 ints……82.6 rating Yup!!! SAME!!!! 😂😂😂😂. Holy hell it gets worse every day

[@anthonypa8045]

Lmao, yea deshauns numbers are terrible across the board. Waste of 3 first round picks. And 230 million

This could be my last season. If Watson is a bust it’s another 20 years back.

[@antoniocurlee1181]

Watson never was a bust unavailable yea but bust disagree If he hurt this year I will be piss and he is not living up to his contract hopefully 🙏🏾 he can stay on the field and get in the playoffs and make some noise

[@cedricmcmillan8673]

How can you be a bust with a winning record 🤔

[@anthonypa8045]

​@@cedricmcmillan8673because record I a team stat. Deshaun individually ranks 38th in qbr over the last 2 years. 25th or lower in passer rating and pff grade too

[@trippeddownthestairs8238]

I don't believe that the Browns will make the playoffs this year. And the main reason that is because I don't believe that Deshaun Watson is a starting caliber QB anymore. Period. I don't believe that he will even grade out as a top 25 QB this year. And you can't win the Superbowl if you don't make the playoffs. My top 3 are Brock Purdy, Lamar Jackson, and Joe Burrow. The NFC is easier than the AFC, so Purdy has an easier road than Lamar Jackson or Joe Burrow.

[@chrischilds368]

How is Lamar the worst passer on the list when he’s the only one of them that has had a perfect passer rating game? Matter of fact he tied the all time record with his 3rd versus Miami last season. Biased maybe?

[@antoniocurlee1181]

Because he doesn’t throw and when he do usually someone is wide open because he done scrambled the whole play😂

[@chrischilds368]

@@antoniocurlee1181 well I guess those other QBs should start to scramble more so they can become as accomplished as Lamar

[@AirMcCants11s]

​@@antoniocurlee1181& Deshaun is doing massage the whole season

[@mutakkamuhammad6267]

The MOST important stats are WINS! 1: DW4’s stats are average because the team was blowing out their opponents when he was the QB and he’s not playing in the 4th quarter, except for the Pittsburgh game, which as bad as he played the team STILL had a chance to win 2: the 1st cincy game was a rain storm and neither QB threw it well 3: coop be cooking corners so bad they have to get a pass interference call, which takes away stats As far as baker, the bucs got in the playoffs because they played in a weak division The team lost to the Texans because 26% of their salary cap was on IR Everything has context

[@anthonypa8045]

Yea but when deshaun is on the field and playing he still ranks 38th in qbr. And that only judges him on when he's actually playing. So what the excuse for that? Or what's the excuse for him only completing 59% of his passes over the last 2 years. Or why flacco and brissett both had better passer ratings and pff grades when they started.

[@kingroyalty9621]

Yall in the media Love the hell outta burrow for barely having a winning percentage over 50% but all hate Lamar for having a winning percentage almost at 80% 😂😂😂😂

[@reglavcor]

C. J. ranked lower that Deshaun Watson? These guys are on crack! The Lions are not on this list???

[@controversialcardchannel]

He's a ROOKIE!! smdh.... and the Lions have to beat out the Packers, Vikings and much improved way improved Bears.

[@controversialcardchannel]

@@someperson8151 and you heard what Jay just said about 2nd year QB's. By the way, Mahomes won his first SB in his 3rd season. He was drafted in 2017. Both had ELITE rosters though...... like the Browns 👍

CJ will have a sophomore slump this year

[@chetjablonski1993]

It’s Allen & Buffalo

[@garydodd441]

I'm a Browns fan, but you guys are some serious homers if you think the Browns have ANY chance to win a SB with Watson. He can't play in any type of structure and only wants to play "back yard" football. This team has no chance of winning the division, how are they gonna win a SB? Crazy the way you guys keep pointing to one HALF of football as some kind of proof he can get it done for a 17 game season and then playoffs. Never happen.

[@cedricmcmillan8673]

Yeah that backyard football has him being the highest rated 2nd half QB, winning record, top five QB differential, and beat two of the best AFC teams.

[@MikkiKing-oq4ot]

Stop hating on DW4. He's a good QB and will prove all the haters wrong this year. Go DW4 and Dawg Pound.

Funny how Cleveland fanboys are sleeping on Buffalo. And no-the AFCN is not the strongest division of all time, lmao. To not have Josh Allen on this list is insane

[@Squizrrm]

Damn near won a superbowl when Jay? Years ago so it doesn't matter. And he didn't win and ran to college and finally won last year. Herbert is good but he not that guy 5:25

Lmao, deshaun has played so bad the last couple years. Lets just hope he can win a playoff game. He hasnt even done that yet as a brown.

11.5 exactly. He's played 11 games and you're judging him against players that been playing. Be real Jay, you don't like DW4 and you show it every time you knock him about something

Glazing Diggs is hilarious too. None of these kids know football.

[@user-ih1lw6sb1d]

Ez browns winning division best qb in the AFC is Deshaun watson. Lamar can't win in the playoffs. Flacco has a better record.

[@anthonypa8045]

Well deshaun might be the 5th best qb in the afc north. Burrow, lamar, wilson, and fields all had a better qbr, and passer rating than watson has the past 2 years.

[@user-ih1lw6sb1d]

@@anthonypa8045 I have feeling DeShaun Watson gonna have a break out year. I'm gonna stick with best qb in the afc north pending no injury. Fields also had negative yards against the browns. I don't think Deshaun Watson worst game was negative yards. Lamar can't get it done. Burrow (64 yd/gm) vs browns can't stay healthy and Wilson is getting old. HE does scare me a bit however I don't think he will preform better than Watson. Lamar failed to beat Deshaun with a broken shoulder. Steelers are always the steelers not sure what i think of them yet. But i think they are a dark horse.
