Do we need to tear Watson down? No probably not.
If you switched the two QB’s performances, would every media member tear down the Chiefs for passing on Watson? Absolutely.

Then why should we be excluded from laughing at the Texans for missing out on Mahomes and not jumping the gun fast enough?
Why shouldn't we tell all the Skip Bayless types to suck our dicks? Not to mention all the other guys who think clutch performances in college matter one ****ing morsel of jack shit in the pros? That's why Watson has this reputation for being a great QB, because he just wins. It's stupid. The guy is clearly deficient in several important skill areas if you want to be a top 10 QB in this league, and no amount of supposed "clutch gene" will ever balance that out and turn him into a top 10 QB if he doesn't improve his reads, throwing velocity, mid-range accuracy, pocket presence, and learning how to take care of himself.
Mahomes is better than Watson. Many people (including on this board) thought it was the other way around when Watson looked "soooooo gooooood" and Mahomes was on the bench. Same goes for the entire ****ing media. I didn't see a single Colin Cowherd/Eric Mangini/Jason Whitlock/Skip Bayless trash Watson last year or this year the way they trash Mahomes. Not ****ing once. Steve Smith is the first person I've seen accurately call Watson out for his shortcomings.
I'm gonna talk shit for a loooooong time. My team has the best QB from the 2017 draft. My team was right. Suck my team's dick.
And **** Deshaun Watson.
