Deshaun Watson Is Delusional

If only someone could have predicted that this Deshaun Watson thing wasn't going to work out for the Browns.  If only there was some sort of writing on the wall that could have predicted that the fanbase still hates Watson, and the team was going to suck to the point that it would be impossible to hide the fact that Watson can't play.  I mean, who could have seen this coming?  Clearly not the Browns as they are almost 100% focused on selling season ticket packages to their Grift Dome at wildly inflated prices.  Football is an afterthought.  For the Browns, football starts when that shitty monolith opens.  Until then, they just have to toss a team out on the field to keep collecting those TV revenue checks.  Winning football games is not on the priority list.  This is Rebuild #14 and for whatever reason they have decided it's a good idea to put Watson's face on The Transitional Portion before The Grand Opening.  This is going to be a long, long Browns season.

I can't blame Watson for lashing out yesterday.  Fans need to keep in mind, Watson is a sociopath.  In Watson's mind, he got traded to Cleveland while dealing with some bullshit some whores brought up unfairly trying to shake him down for money.  The team sucked, but he went out there and balled but got hurt.  That happens.  Then he got hurt again and those asshole fans cheered.  He dug in, did all that rehab and none of you sons of bitches appreciate the work he did to bring his considerable talents back out on the field.  "I thought being away for two years and working myself back from two Achilles injuries and putting the time in and being around the facility, being around the city, doing charity work in the city, supporting the Cleveland Browns, hanging out with fans whenever I do see them, being honest, being the type of person that I know I am and the character would help," he said. "And I guess it hasn't. So that's why I say it's personal. So it is what it is. People have their own opinions."

Watson has absolutely no self awareness.  None.  The shorthand on his time in Cleveland goes like this.  The Browns took on this deal with the devil despite knowing that they'd have to weather the storm as Watson settled 24 civil lawsuits for sexual assault.  Let's not forget, he was 100% guilty as charged.  Watson showed no remorse for his crimes and only addressed it with a very carefully crafted interview on Browns controlled media with the lawyer speak "I want to say that I'm truly sorry to all of the women that I have impacted in this situation. The decisions that I made in my life that put me in this position I would definitely like to have back.".  That was it.  He clearly only cared that he had been inconvenienced.  He never brought it up again.  He then went out and absolutely sucked on the field while simultaneously posting videos of himself in diamond shoes, fur pants and leather shirts with designer logos.  He got married to his insufferable wife who doubled down on the conspicuous consumption social media posts with designer bags and massive jewelry.  When he tore his achilles after another terrible run of play, Browns fans were relieved to be rid of having to look at him.  His return is like some sort of slasher film villain rising from the dead.  I think the overall attitude from the fans is "What?  This fucking guy again?  I hate this guy.".

Watson noting his "charity work" around the city is interesting because I could only find evidence of four events in five years.  Even his "Deshaun Watson Foundation" Instagram page is meager.  The last post is from his Salvation Army turkey giveaway last Thanksgiving and then the previous post to that is a 2023 photo op Xmas event for 250 kids at the Marriott downtown.  Do yourself a favor and look at the post where his wife features their ostentatiously decked out mini van with big screen TV and leather seats as she preens in a mink coat as they go to give hungry people food at a Salvation Army.  It's unbelievable the level of tone deafness.  It's "let them eat cake" stuff.  It does serve as an example of how deluded Watson is though.  He really thinks because he spent an hour taking photos giving away "DW4" branded food boxes as an aside to his wife's "luxury lifestyle influencer" post that he'd done "charity work in the community".  I mean, maybe he's out there being a mentor to a bunch of kids, but there's no evidence.  It seems weird that a guy that hires professional video crews to show him shopping for watches wouldn't shoot content to rehab his image.  It's also weird that there aren't any photos of him in Cleveland doing anything.  I have sat in restaurants next to Baker and Tim Couch by chance, but I've never even heard of anyone that had a friend of a friend that saw Watson doing anything in town.  

Watson stopped serious NFL development the second the first Browns check hit his bank.  Most players will post off season workout videos.  For example, I bet Tyrod Taylor is sweating his ass off doing some ungodly workout RIGHT NOW.  Watson had a few videos of him half assed peddling a stationary bike while his wife showed her ass on their rented yacht, but that was about it for the offseason conditioning in 2022-2025.  That changed this year though when I think his agent finally got through to him that his football career was going to be o-v-e-r if he didn't show up in 2026 and put up some stats.  Watson put in real work this year, the kind of work he hasn't done since 2020 I'll bet.  In his mind, he figures "I put the work in this year, so what's with the attitude from the fans?  Where's my payoff?".  Watson feels like he is owed respect because he put in a lot of effort to get ready for this season, the amount of work that he hasn't done in years.  Why is the fan base not appreciative?  He doesn't get it. 

I think the mainstream media has completely missed the story on Watson.  It's not that he hasn't played well because of scheme or coaching.  Watson hasn't played well up tho this point because he has put in minimal effort because he gave zero fucks.  He got the guaranteed contract and said, "Thank you very much.  My work here is done.".  As the Toolmaster once said, "Deshaun Watson has the same attitude about playing an NFL game that you do on cleaning your bathroom.  You don't want to do it, but you have to every Sunday.".  That is on the nose.  Watson now is desperately trying to flip the switch back on because he needs another contract.  I have said it before, and I will say it again.  Watson is going to go broke.  He has spent money like he thinks "rich people" do, as a show of luxury goods, automobiles and jewelry.  He has more bling than Jeff Bezos, but Watson's revenue stream is about to shut off.  His kharmic payback is upon him.  He's in big trouble but he earned it.  Seriously, fuck that guy.  

The only reason the Browns don't just roll with Sanders and Gabriel is that Mr. Jimmy has publicly watched his $250M go towards yellow sports cars, $5M rings, fur coats, and private jets.  He wants that asshole to give him something back for that fortune.  Sorry Mr. Jimmy.  You got taken.  You get NOTHING.  The Browns are going to suck this year no matter what.  It shows how disconnected from the fanbase the Haslam Crew is in that they won't provide a likeable QB to lose with as opposed to one the people loathe.  If you are trying to gin up enthusiasm to have people spend thousands of dollars to watch your new shit team lose the way your old shit team did in the new Grift Dome, at least give them something to be emotionally attached to while they consider Dawg Pound Klub Box Field Experience PSL rights.  Let's be honest.  They want to lose in 2026 so they can try to get a QB in 2027.  They'll lose with Watson or Sanders.  Might as well be Sanders.  Don't forget this key fact...  They are the Browns and thus will always be the Browns.  They are going to toss Watson out there to make sure he sucks, and only then do fans get to watch Sanders suck.  Not only will the Browns lose games, but fans will hate the team as they watch them lose.  Buckle up.  The 2026 Browns season is going to suck.

Go Browns.
