Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the hey, DeShawn Watson really is going to get traded spectacular. And now your host, the man who will struggle to employ even this slightest bit of objectivity in this discussion.

The old Zuser himself dead and zoos.

Everybody how you doing today, the old Zuser here joined in a virtual room filled with heroes Mark Cessler Greg Rosenfall.

Yes, it is indeed the hey, the Shawn Watson really is going to get traded spectacular. And we cannot wait to dig into all of the madness surrounding one of the great.

The great talents in football, the report came out this morning, ESPN's Adam Schefter that Watson requested a trade from the Texans officially.

The Watts Watson made the request to the team weeks ago, sources told ESPN in Rapp report had some similar reporting later today.

And now here we are boys in a place that we've really been or never been before.

We've never tread in this territory, Greg a quarterback at this level. J cutler is an example of far distant cousin when he was a hot shot in the league, but he was never truly a superstar.

DeShawn Watson is and it looks like he's on the move. Are you buying now? Is he definitely going?

No, I don't want to ruin like the theme of the show, but the fact that you know a contrarian to the bitter end, Rosenfall.

Well, here's the thing. Yes, I if I had to guess more likely than not, but number one, you just said that the trade request came weeks ago.

And that was before the Texans hired David Colley, which you know we can mention he used the receivers coach in Baltimore before the Texans decided to keep their offensive coordinator Tim Lewis, who Watson's a huge fan of.

I do think the fact of reports are coming out today indicates that Watson's camp is the one putting out there and they don't really care about all that coaching mumbo jumbo and they still absolutely won out, but I'm doing this like piece next week of like what you know what each team can do to make you know next year Super Bowl.

And my thing for the Texans is like don't trade DeShawn Watson. It's still not over. He's still on your roster.

I'm not finding a guy this good for 30 or 40 years exhaust every possible avenue to make it not happen and maybe they're too dumb to do that, but I'm still I'm still leaving that little door open little crack.

I just fair to question if they're if they're if they have the wherewithal to make the intelligent choices.

I think it's just legit that the relationship is broken and it's broken from the highest order in Houston and you know David Colley I think in another scenario would be a celebrated hire for the kind of career he's had to some degree what he's gone through to be he's going to be the oldest head coach on the day that he starts but I don't know why I'm not going to be a little bit more honest.
