Damn that sucks. I almost had him as my only QB in Fantasy but the guy declined my trade (Wilson for Hunt).

Over half the people I’m starting in Fantasy this week are Seahawks or former Seahawks because of bye weeks. I’m tempted to have all of my starters this week be one except for Fournette.

Not only was he great for the Texans, he was great for the NFL. Super tough loss for the NFL as well. This kid was going to make the ratings go through the roof. IMHO opinion, he was really a lot of fun to watch and he was in line to break many rookie QB records.

We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

As much this news sucks, the Astros winning far outweighs the loss of Watson...clearly.

I just hope it doesn't derail his obviously promising career moving forward even if this season is toast.

Man, just when we had something to be excited about offensively with the Texans.

I disagree. Football far outweighs this baseball you speak of...

You also have a very good basketball team this year. That's something to look forward to !!

I’ve lost Dalvin Cook, and Charles Clay. Then starting this week I’m likely losing Zeke. I’m sitting at 7-1 though. I was lucky enough to be able to pick up McKinnon and drafted Wentz. I’m praying the Cowboys are as high on Rod Smith as I’m hearing. Going to give him 1 week before I start him though.

I really hope he comes back stronger. The kid is a stud. To me he looks like if you took all of Dak’s best attributes and made him more athletic and with a bigger arm you’d have Watson. He’s a winner and he clearly studies his ass off. The difference is Dak is bigger and will be able to take the punishment a little better.

I still have doubts that Chris Paul and Harden are a good fit. Beverly was a perfect fit next to Harden.
