Remember when the browns won in the playoffs? Then they got rid of that quarter back for a guy who hasn't played a full season in years and paid out the ass. And then the other quarter back won another playoff game for another team. Good ol browns

He isn't done with his contract yet, he may turn out to be an outstanding player for the Browns. Don't give up on him just yet. 3 of the 5 QB's who have signed those huge contracts, haven't lived up to the hype. Watson, Russell Wilson and Kyler Murray, so Watson isn't alone in this. I know Pat Mahomes signed a huge contract and Lamar Jackson I think has as well, but they are on a couple of really good teams that have a chance to go all the way and win a Super Bowl each and every season.

Not sure Watson is the worst move in Browns history. Remember, Art Modell basically forced Jim Brown to retire if he wanted to finish filming the movie "The Dirty Dozen". He also moved the team to Baltimore one year after signing Andre Rison to the biggest WR contract in NFL history, which turned out to be a huge mistake as well. Modell was also responsible for cutting Bernie Kosar and helping the Dolphins go to three straight Super Bowls (winning two) by sending them Paul Warfield for what turned out to be QB Mike Phipps ... who may have been worse in his time with Cleveland than Watson has been. I would say the biggest difference in all of these moves is that Watson still has a chance to turn things around. Whether he can do that or not ... I just don't know.

The Browns didn't lose their playoff game by throwing two pick six, we lost because we couldn't stop Texans offense and were forced to throw for two pick six. Poor game plan and execution all around. And anyone who loosely follows the Browns will tell you we won't cut Chubb. The cap situation is not bad as you think, in fact all the things you mentioned are not as bad as Bill Callahan leaving us. I'm not sure whether Watson will ball out, but the Browns will be fine. If you think a team played four QBs had 1/3 their cap on IR and still made the playoffs in the toughest division is in a bad spot roster wise, you are tripping

On 6 drives houston scored 24 points. In the first half. That ration, 4 points per drive given up, would quite literally make us the worst defense in the NFL. Our offense was already bad, and we have known flacco wouldnt win us the game if needed. He needed the rest of the team to perform so he can follow stefanskis plays and system.

It was a stupid gamble, executed idiotically. Granted Baker probably wouldn't be the player he is today without the Browns doing him so ridiculously dirty. But still, they basically yolo'd their competitiveness for the next 5 years on a single player. And then gave that player literally the dumbest possible contract. The exposed themselves to tremendous risk for what was at best, going to be a marginal improvement at the QB position. To assume that he would be the same on the Browns as he was on the Texans ignores like 30 years of Browns QB history. Their are so many other ways to potentially spend that 230 million. Which have dramatically better outcomes for the competitiveness of the Browns. it was incredibly shortsighted and frankly unnecessary in the first place.

Honestly, from a brown fan view, I think you're making it a bigger problem than it is. The cap is more than likely going to be raised. I see them trading Jack Conklin to free up space rather chubb or Cooper. Dwand Jones is already playing at an elite level and will be a good replacement for Conklin. I hope we resign Elijah Moore, he had a decent season; with some more snap% I think he could be a good wr 3. My biggest worry is not our cap, the saints are in a far worse cap situation and arguably a worse qb situation. My worry is on our oline, bitonio and teller are ageing and are slowly regressing. I think both pocic and Jones can be starters, but wills is just a big question mark.

They do so much moving of the $$ that yall worried about absolutely nothing. Also...why yall worried about mfs $$$?

@@nw4042 exactly. Their evaluation of the player and what level of performance they could get out of him was flawed, and has proven to be extremely wrong. And the contract that they gave him would have been pretty terrible, even if through some miracle, he actually managed to perform at the level that they incorrectly assumed he would. There is also a MASSIVE difference between having a contract with a portion of the money guaranteed, and a contract with 100% of the money guaranteed. Not even the best QBs in the history of the game have gotten such a thing. It's unheard of, due to how obviously terrible, and extremely risky it is for any sport, much less one with the injury rates of the NFL. That's not even factoring in the actual odds of a QB performing at a level commensurate with that level of pay. Or the fact that generally these contracts are structured in such a way that the non-guaranteed money is there to provide significant incentives for the player to actually perform at or above the level the organization expects them to. That contract basically gambled the next 5 or so years of the Browns future as a team on essentially a single player. It meant that an huge portion of the teams cap space was tied up in that player, which has knock on effects on the teams ability to pay and retain other top talent. It also assumed that they would be able to get equivalent production out of a player performing at his absolute peak. Despite the fact he would be instead coming off of multiple years of not playing in the NFL, and with an entirely different team around him.

@@thefilmlodge Despite your attempt to minimize the effect of the Watson contract with word choice. You failed to provide even a single piece of actual evidence to justify your position. Stating "they will be fine" doesn't make the Watson trade any less terrible. And "oh stop", doesn't make it any less true that the Browns absolutely did bet at least 5 years of their team's/organization's future with that single trade. A trade which was very much a "big fking deal". But thanks for also reminding everyone that on top of the Browns giving Watson a ridiculous $230 Million, 100% guaranteed, contract. They also gave away 4 first-round draft picks in 2022, 2023, and 2024, as well as a 2022 fourth-round pick, a 2023 third-round pick and a 2024 fourth-round pick. Which, especially when combined with the $230 Million, would provide far more value to the Browns than what Deshaun Watson has. Even ignoring the cap space impact and lack of value the Browns have gotten from DeShaun Watson's absurd contract. Just the draft capital alone that they gave up would have been basically guaranteed to provide them with more value and exposed them to far less risk than than what the Watson trade did. Given the situation they were faced with before the season started, and then everything that actually happened with injures during the season, it's hard to really put into words the extent to which the Browns outperformed expectations and what the "on paper" situation would have suggested their record would be. It's certainly a credit to the coaches and players that they were able to overcome such adversity. But, that being said, it's a pity so much of that adversity was self inflicted.

So? _Look_ at that roster. Why do they need to worry about the cap? Their Only Concern Is to make the super-bowl now. The cap is a low 48th priority. My best suggestion for them is to thank Flacco & P.J. Walker for their service & make a trade for Justin Fields. There are a few reasons why. 1) They're stuck paying Watson whether he dies, returns to form or never recovers from surgery. 2) The Bears have been doing to Fields what Greg Roman did to Lamar for three years. He needs to prove he can be a real starting QB *_BEFORE_* he can land a Dan Jones level contract & may jump at this chance & take a sweet team-friendly 1-year deal with a winning team & the Browns are that. 3) Who else _is there_ for them at QB who wouldn't cost more? Last season, behind one of The Worst o-lines & with Darnell Mooney as his #1 he tossed only 5 TDs fewer than a guy behind The _BEST_ o-line who had one of The Best WR duos in the league. He goes into better coaching, WAY better play-calling & way better on-field talent. Stefanski & Co. will unlearn all the carp the Bears uploaded. The Browns can look good for even _TRYING_ to move on from Watson & worst case scenario they have two starting-quality QBs. Now: if you still don't like this, please tell what their Better Options Are at QB?

Thank you for making this video. Because of the fully guaranteed deal, I've been saying since the day that it was announced that this was going to be catastrophically bad for the Browns if he didn't become an elite QB again. I've tried to explain this to Browns fans, but they don't understand. They point to last years restructure as evidence that Browns management knows what they are doing without realizing that the restructure just made it worse and that there is no way out of it. Unfortunately, most people simply don't understand how the salary cap works.

@Boblib1970
@Boblib1970 4 ай бұрын
@@japex12346 Do you know how void years work, because I do. Firstly, they can only add 1 void year with a restructure this spring. The rule is that the max number of void years is 5 minus the year of the contract that the player is on. 3rd in Watsons case. So 5-3 equals 2...but they already added a void year last year, so they can add 1 with a restructure this offseason. Regarding void years...yes, you can put money in those years, but when you get towards the end, or the actual end of the original contract...2026 in Watsons case (void years dont count)...you have two choices. 1) Do a contract extension or 2) Allow the player to play out the contract and let it expire and the player becomes a FA. If you do option 1, the salary cap accountability of the signing bonus of the extension is spread out evenly over the life of the new contract (just as it is with the original comtract), but the cap number for the void years is added to that number. Example: Watson signs a 5 year extension with a $200M signing bonus. That counts $40M a year from 2027 to 2031 to the cap. Now, lets say that the Browns through restructures before the extension, added 3 void years, each with $15M in cap charges that were pushed back during those restructures. The cap hit would be $55M for the years 2027, 2028, and 2029...the first 3 years of the extension...before falling back to $40M for the last two. And that's not counting the players actual salary for each year. Those numbers, 55 and 40, will be even higher when accounting for the salary for each season. If you do option 2 and let the player play out the contract and become a FA, then all cap charges in void years are added together and accelerated forward and charged to the current year, 2027 in Watsons case. Using example 1, the Browns would then have a $45M dead cap hit in 2027 while Watson is QB'ing for another team. Obviously, option 1 is what the Browns are counting on and absolutely what they planned for when they gave him the fully guaranteed contract. They assumed that he'd be the QB he was in Houston and they'd have a top 5-8 QB on their roster. So far, he's no where close. If Watson continues to struggle and underperform, they're in a real bind. Do you bite the bullet and live with a $64M cap hit for the next 3 years which will inhibit their ability to sign and keep key players? Or do they keep restructuring and pushing cap money back, hoping that he'll come around and be elite again so that they can give him that extension? The problem is, if he doesn't then the cap situation will get really really ugly, Or do they keep throwing good money after bad and extend a mediocre QB another 5 years just for cap relief? The problem here is that he will be severely underperforming for the amount of cap space he's using. And that's not to mention that the Browns would have absolutely ZERO leverage in this situation and Watson could milk them for millions more. This is why fully guaranteed contracts are a disaster waiting to happen. And why we will never see another one of this magnitude again. (Kurt Cousins took less fully guaranteed money and only a 3 year contract).

Browns will be fine. NFL cap isn’t real and teams find lots of ways to circumvent it. Still have a great OLine. Lots of injuries last year that are unlikely to happen again. Chubb is going to have a year like Adrian Peterson’s MVP season when he came back from the knee injury. Lots of fantastic young defensive players. Not saying they win the division but could still make the playoffs.

Watson literally went 14/14 in the second half against the ravens to overcome a two touchdown deficit while playing through a broken shoulder and high ankle sprain. That's literally putting the team on his back when they needed it most.

One thing left unmentioned is wether Watson will ever be the same coming back from his shoulder injury. I know that he is expected to make a full recovery, but how will that injury affect his ability to throw? This is probably the biggest argument against fully guaranteed deals...the team takes 100% of the injury risk.

I really dont think were in a bad situation, we have 34 mil in rollover which means we have 19 million in space this year (per bleacher report) you didnt even mention the rollover space, but most youtubers just want to hate on watson than mention this bc it weakens their argument. There going to restructure deals to add to that 19 mil too, Chubbs cap hit wont stick. They also dont have almost any signif free agents this offseason. Also thats flat out wrong what you said about there not being a game where watson carried the team. He carried the team on his back to beat baltimore completing 14 straight passes in the second half to beat one of the best teams in the nfl. There are several teams with much worse cap situations, the Browns really arent one of them, people just want to believe they are bc they dont like deshaun.
