Watson now suspended 11 games/$5 million fine-update

[Johnny Cupcakes]

So instead of him playing against the Bengals in his second game back, he gets to play the Bengals in his second game back?

I still hope that we end his career. I hope it’s ugly. Something that they try not to show the replay of.

So I saw.  Mark my words.  He won't play against the Texans.

You all need to quit thinking of numbers less than 12 games.  12 is the minimum, period.

Well stewy you blew this one.. I was spot on except fine was lower, told you no way it would go from 6 to 17..

Ummm i said 12.....and have been saying minimum 12 for a long time.  You have reading comprehension issues.  You even quoted me as saying 12.  lol @ you

I still say he won't see the field week 13 against the Browns.

You mean like we were all supposed to "mark your words", that the suspension would be nothing less than 12 games?

You did say minimum correct but also no way be less and play against texans and he can play against texans, I was off on fine thought they would increase it.

Well this is much better than 6 that is all I can say. The NFL saved SOME face here.

I did not know for sure.  That is why I never told anyone to "mark my words".

They're already hyping the game as Watson's return to Houston.

Never good juju wishing career ending injury on a player, regardless of why. Doubly so against a team that Burrow and the Bengals will have to continue to face 2+ times per year, every year.
