Dawgs By Nature on Deshaun Watson
From the article
The last time Deshaun Watson played in front of the Browns fans, he was booed... How does Watson prepare to play in front of a fanbase that doesn't particularly care for him? How will he look if the team goes 3-and-out on their first drive?... Watson played well last week against the Buccaneers, but the Panthers defense will provide a different challenge. For Watson, he just has to block out the noise and play efficient football.
STACKED’s take
Watson faces hostile home crowd and must manage fan reception while playing efficient football.
Watson faces a challenging Week 2 home opener against the Panthers with significant fan reception concerns. The source notes Watson was booed in a preseason game and was visibly affected by it; the question is how he'll respond if the Browns go 3-and-out early in front of a fanbase that doesn't particularly care for him. While Watson played well against Tampa Bay, the Panthers defense presents a different challenge. The source emphasizes Watson must block out the noise and play efficient football—described as a tall task given his inconsistency in doing so historically—but he has an opportunity to redeem himself by playing competent football for another week.
