Lawrence, Watson, and Nurse. 3 worst contracts in sports?

Isn’t Lawrence on his rookie deal ?

Watson is the worse because of what they paid to trade for him.

He signed for 5 years 275 million in the offseason.

Watson is still worse. But Lawrence is top 3 at this point.

That’s terrible. How does someone earn a contract like that with his performance so far.

Daniel’s is going to better than Williams by a lot.

Yeah very impressive. I can't remember the last time a rookie made that type of throw.

Daniels putting up Nix-like numbers. He’s pretty good

Dolphins vs Titans next Monday. Guess we won’t have a problem picking a game.

Well yeah, Levis is about as a must see as it gets, can't wait to see what comedic gold he's got in store for us.

Wow. If so. That'll be close to a career ender. He's going to be 29 next year. He's rarely played a full season. A lot of what ifs for his career. But at the end of the day. Attrition and durability are #1 when evaluating running backs.

Trevor Lawrence is hilarious to watch. The spin moves with no defender close. Or air mailing the dump off. But really. The dude is missing wide open throws. And they're not even close.

You have to wonder if maybe Lawrence just doesn't have it. He's probably going to get another coach as Pederson will walk the plank for this season but the next guy has a lot of work to do to get this guy trending back up.

If I'm the Bengals, I'm doing onside kicks as soon as I can in the 4th quarter. They need to steal a possession if they want a chance at winning the game.

Trevor is the QB desperation conundrum summed up. While he's never lived up to the "prince that was promised" hype, he's also not been truly horrible enough to walk away from. Was he worth the second contract? Nope...but if he got to market he would have got the same contract, or even more. And if you do walk away from him maybe you find a good rookie, or maybe you get a reclamation project like Baker or Geno who works into a quality starter...or maybe you spend 5-10 years looking for someone as good as Trevor was. And when you're the current coach or GM the risk of maybe getting someone better isn't going to be worth it to them, and you won't be around to clean up any mess that a bad contract will leave, so here the Jags are.

This has been the best game so far this season. Who would have thought.
