The main point here (in my mind) is that Watson is no longer good at playing football. We've seen plenty of players with spotty histories get cheered and get respectful send offs when they get injured. We've seen people buy pink jerseys for their daughters with the names of players who physically or sexually abuse women on them.
If Watson got the Browns to the AFC Championship game last year and they were 4-2 when his achilles blew up that place would have been quiet and the fans would have been upset and respectful, but he's been the worst move by a franchise famous for worst moves AND he's a total creep, so they weren't.
My ol' man once told me that you can be bad at you job OR you can be a bastard. You can't be both.
