PodcastBain of Terror: Preseason Week 2 RecapAugust 25, 2026

From the episode

He's only thrown completed rather one pass over 10 air yards watching him. I see a quarterback who has completely lost conviction in his ability to throw downfield.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Watson is no longer a viable starter and struggles with downfield accuracy and pressure

Deshaun Watson has been objectively bad in the preseason, showing a lack of conviction in downfield throws and struggling significantly against pressure. He has completed only one pass over 10 air yards, and his mobility appears zapped. Mina Kimes notes that he is no longer a viable starting quarterback, and his poor performance is compounded by mental factors and a lack of arm talent compared to his earlier career.
