Deshaun Watson's night started with a pick 6. He and tight end Harrison Bryant weren't on the same page on the Cleveland Browns' first play of Monday night's game, Watson threw wide, it was batted around before Alex Highsmith grabbed it and ran in for a touchdown.
You can't even say that play defined Watson's time with the Browns. Troubling off-field stories, an 11-game suspension and possible regret from a ridiculous fully guaranteed contract are what defines Watson's time with the Browns. But his mediocre play is part of the story too.
The Browns paid Watson $230 million, all guaranteed. They paid him like he would be a franchise savior. He hasn't been that yet. Now the Browns need Watson to carry the offense, and they have no idea if he can.Football-wise, Watson hadn't had to carry the team. The defense looked great in Week 1. Chubb is one of the best running backs in football. Chubb, not Watson, was the focal point of the offense.
Watson didn't do much on Monday night. He did have a couple of 15-yard penalties called against him. On the first one he yanked linebacker Kwon Alexander's facemask as he ran out of bounds, and was given a 15-yard penalty for unnecessary roughness. He was lucky he didn't get another penalty for putting his hands on an official. Later, on a third-and-12, he grabbed the facemask of a Steelers defender in pursuit and it was another 15-yard penalty.
