Nah, it's probably even worse. At the very least the Jets have some significant draft capital to turn things around with some smart moves. Bill O'Brien has completely ****ed them well into the future with horrific trade after horrific trade and some pretty bad cap management.

I'd say at least they have a franchise QB but Deshaun is either mentally checking out or he really needed Hopkins to thrive, neither of which leave much room for optimism.

Gave Hopkins to Arizona for (effectively) free.
PAID to take on Brandon Cooks awful contract from the Rams.
Traded Duane Brown and Clowney to the Seahawks for pennies.

No one has benefited from his incompetence more than San Francisco.

Saw comments from Houston fans that they are afraid Deshaun has given up on the situation and is just going through the motions now.

Twitter can eat shit. I was trying to link a Tweet from a Watson interview after the game. It was basically just "It is what it is. We're 0-4. I'm not going to let losing take my joy, my smile, or my love for the game".

Nah, it's pretty clear by his demeanor in games that he's somewhat checked out, and I don't blame him a single bit.

I agree and that’s the vibe I got from the “It is what it is” part of the Tweet.

I also noticed he was playing air guitar after scoring a TD in yesterday’s game but they were still down a score or two.

Uhhh... Bears fans, I don't know how to tell you this, but Jim McMahon is not exactly who comes to mind when I think of mental toughness.

Also, your city is just like any other city. Size of population has nothing to do with it.

They're just trying to talk themselves into excuses for how the Draft played out. If their GM did proper homework, he would have found that Trubisky was the one who was not prepared for the big stage and had nowhere near enough college experience to justify a #2 or #3 overall draft pick.
