Nothing they can do at this point but double down. Such a terrible decision. I get it, he is a top 10 QB and still in his prime, but its just not worth the drama. I still think they would have been a playoff team with a healthy Baker

I agree! I still think Watson is going to be a distraction. Him sitting for 11 games, is going to be a challenge. I believe he already has rust from his previous long term absence.
Now that Baker is healthy, I believe the Browns made a huge mistake.

Goodell: Fans seem upset we only gave Watson a 11 game suspension. What do we do now?
NFL Lawyer: Jon Gruden's emails?
Goodell: Perfect distraction.
At this point, Gruden's emails being released seem to be a cover up for something else. First time was to cover up all the disgusting things Dan Snyder was doing and now to distract from Watson's slap on the wrist suspension.

I mean... the problem is I think you're in the minority with people thinking it was a "slap of the wrist" suspension. Most people are already over the whole process entirely, because it took so long. Like I said they would. They simply found whatever tomorrow's topic for outrage is.Goodell: Fans seem upset we only gave Watson a 11 game suspension. What do we do now?

It's the general public. They have the attention span of a 2 year old. Just let them throw their tantrum, tire out, put them down for a nap, and move on with life. It's pretty simple.

Well, technically, Gronk himself confirmed it.

Don't quote me but I believe Watson playing for 6 games accrues a full season which may hurt the Browns capwise next year. The NFL could be royally fucking them on that guaranteed contract.Goodell: Fans seem upset we only gave Watson a 11 game suspension. What do we do now?

Tentatively yes, but it doesn't matter. There is no scenario where he plays 2023 under a $55M cap hit. He has $46M base salaries each year from 23-26. For at least 2023 and probably 2024, they will take a good chunk of that, convert it to a bonus, and prorate.
My bet would be that his 2023 cap hit will be somewhere in the neighborhood of $25M. They could probably go a little higher if they want to, but I would bet it's less than $35M.

I am still surprised by this. He must be looking for a huge contract. I don’t believe it is because of his stance on player safety at all.

Losing your LT is rough, and that is a serious injury. He is done for the year. Only thing that would have made that worse would be if he signed a big contract two days ago.

Wanted to go out on his terms while semi healthy maybe? He seems like a fairly intelligent guy, I'm sure he'll land another gig if he has not already

Civil lawsuit though? Obviously, she deserves to be heard. But I wonder why a civil lawsuit compared to a criminal one if a felony was committed. And I say felony because I don't know where anywhere in the States where rape is NOT a felony, but I could be wrong.
