NFL 2024

Because the Browns paid a fortune's fortune on Watson. It was a bad gamble to start with, as he was coming off a significant injury, and mobile QBs usually have unpredictable expiration dates on them. It was never a good idea, but let's be clear, the Browns offensive line is about as good as the Patriots... and the Patriots weren't looking to go the Super Bowl this year.
Yes, but they had Flacco as Watson's backup, he got them to the playoffs when Watson was taking them to oblivion, and then they didn't bother to try to keep him. Their paying a fortune for Watson doesn't stop them from paying a few million for a competent backup. They're swimming in cap space after restructuring Watson.
 
After last year's playoff debacle, Jerry Jones repeatedly declared that he was "All in" with the Cowboys and determined to take them to the Super Bowl this year. At 2 and 2, they look average at best. At long last the fans are beginning to seriously grumble. However the smart money says that Jerry will die before hiring a real General Manager.

Cowboys fans, after watching Derrick Henry posterize their defense: "Why didn't you sign him? He wanted to be here!"

Jones: "We couldn't afford him because we had to overpay our underperforming players."

Fans: "Oh, right, that's what we do. Never mind."
 
You could never trust Sports Illustrated to break this scandal.
