Ken's Verdict on Deshaun Watson: This Weekend Is His Two-Week Audition

0:00I Saw a video of Dustin on the internet on Their show over there and like I'm like boy. He's he's got a Dave Wonstadt thing He does not now like Dave Wonstadt's gray like Dustin isn't gray yet, but I'm like man That's that's bears Dave Wonstadt right there man looking good Looking tough like he's in better shape than he was when he played for a house that mustash There is some strong Maches mode of that. I'm glad that the mustaches back. I can't grow one But I'm glad that the mustaches back my dad has never not had a mustache as long as I'm known 40 years. He's always had a mustache. I think he shaved it once Sense he could grow one and dad's always had a mustache since He's a great responsible man, and so he's growing a mustache Todd Munkin was with us yesterday. I Think this is a nice way to think I I just don't think that this is the truth. I think it was Lyma who asked him his reaction to Watson's issue with the fans after the bills game

1:07this was Todd Munkin's initial response I Looked at it more along the lines of a speed bump and just a blip on the radar more than the norm of what I had seen over the course of the five months being here terms of his confidence How hard he's worked to get back to where he's at today? And any did he he came to me right after that him and I had a good conversation He said I'm not sure I handled that the right way, but I did have things that were on my heart All right, that's the first response This is continued about that he thinks that Dishon Watson can get past his comments about the fans I needed to get this off my chest. It's over. I just want to go out there and play great football I've worked off. It's hard to get back and I believe I believe in the only way you're gonna get the best out of your players Is to have a verbal contract that says I've got your back. I've got your back I got you and that's what we've done with the Sean and we look forward to playing this weekend All right, you got to say those things, but when Zach Jackson joins us and

2:08Well, he has this to say about Dishon Watson It doesn't give me a whole lot of hope Zach we did kind of catch win towards the end of the available Practices for media that the RPO stuff was a little more of an emphasis You weren't gonna really do that with It's comical because he's not even fasting where he doesn't have one skill that challenges NSL defense But yeah, you're right. That's probably what they're gonna do and really tied hinted throughout the whole spring The experience and mobility had given lots in the edge He he outright said that a couple of times He danced around it a few other times So we probably are gonna see that but that to me is just comical So if it doesn't go and when he says 10 and a half quarters It's like these two weeks are an audition for him to come home and play in front of the bronze fans Especially with week two. I mean we just we've spent two statements talking about the guy who used to be here and the contract He just signed like this is an audition to be able to play back in front of the home fans After what was said After what happened after what transpired?

3:09And I mean there are some people who are in Dishon Watson's corner surprisingly. I have received those emails but I think the vast majority of bronze fans would rather be done with this the only thing that will dig you out of this Because I don't think anybody believes the words and I think they're waiting for the other shoot to drop again If there's any more shoes to drop the only thing that's gonna dig you out of this whole is good play That's the only thing I I don't know if you even had you know could they lose games and have him still play relatively well Yeah, I mean they could you you've seen good quarterback performances with a quarterback who hadn't played that great We've we've talked about him before or we've seen I should say good Performances from a quarterback to a team that hasn't won we've talked about those before I I do believe that this is And so many ways for him and the fans these two weeks and our audition to be able to come back and play at home Do you agree with that you seem to yeah? Yeah? Because do you think that now this is a question with Todd Munking because I know we asked him should the fans

4:12Be involved in any of this should he care about the fans reactions to any of this and I don't think he's really should But I also think what do we got to do? What's right for a football team because if he's gonna react to the fans? This is where you do have to in a round of outweigh consider the fans If I think my quarterback isn't gonna be able to handle the fan reaction then I got to rethink my quarterback And I don't know if he's gonna be able to handle the fan reaction So the fans do dictate what I'm going to do at my quarterback position And I have to hope that should or Sanders is ready to go because if he goes out there And he plays poorly on Sunday and then place poorly the next Sunday We got to rip the court on this thing. We got to move on. I can't have I think it's gonna be a rough year I hope you're right about that. Yeah, I don't I think it's gonna be still probably be a rough year I don't need to be even rougher and if Watson looks like one of the other fans struck through the mud If he looks like one of the worst quarterbacks in football for two weeks. He's gonna get benched I don't think there's any question about that. See you say that But if you if you don't think that should or Sanders is ready, what are you going to do?

5:12See this is why you just got a lot of Guys get played all the time that aren't ready to play in the NFL should or last year was not ready to play in the NFL What I'm not sure that's true and they just said hey, let's let's see some games Let's see him play and now this coach doesn't think he's ready So maybe he'll be ready by week three maybe he'll be ready by week seven I hope so because I'd like to be able to break glass if needed on should or Sanders and And because of this I do think the fans have I think the fans have power here Because if he goes out and he plays poorly and you come off this season 0 and 2 Especially if you just lost to Baker Mayfield and I'm sure he's gonna let you know about it because he lets everybody know about it You need to make a serious you have to have a serious conversation about replacing him because It's it is about the fans, but it is about football as well And if I really think he's gonna be rattled by the own home his own hometown fans because he's playing at home I have to move on to somebody else because they're not gonna help my team win So as much as we can say hey, this is until further notice. It's a multi-week thing

6:16No, I think he's on a two-week trial basis He can go out there and play poorly in Jacksonville and then come back and play well and and Tampa Bay and maybe that'll save him because I don't know how great the years gonna be I'm saying five wins you said four wins. I don't need the fans being drug into it either That's the last thing I need thanks to everybody who joined us today Zach Jackson was wonderful We went around the F's you know with Ken Wyman was excellent Moeager was great Chris Mueller very good as well and Dr. John Steinbrunner It's time-breaker talking tough, huh? It's you like Dr. John? Absolutely love it Saying the things that that Western Michigan deserves especially at the end of the season if there is consideration And you're Michigan you're lucky. He's not going through the courts because the courts would rule with him Because he and Cevillais basically did rule with him here that on 92 3 the fan dot com have a wonderful day in my friends go guardian But you clap hey Sounds good cool again on the left. Oh
