Rivalries generally extend past the field... Or faced with Brady and Watson in the NFC South, Blank cant stomach where he knows the Falcons will sit at the end of the season.

Dont sleep on why Blank did this himself instead of sending Fontenot or Smith either, Watson had issues with the Texans ownership not keeping their word and he wants to show Watson that he is different. This also keeps his pitch Falcons vs Texans not Falcons vs Saints.

I can see that as well but Blank will have to overhaul that team. There’s no receivers, no running game, a bad o-line and a below average defense. He’ll have to sell Watson on a long term plan. Cause if they land him they still aren’t winning anything no time soon

Actually he wouldn’t have to sell Watson on a long term plan, it’s much easier than that. Watson was sideways with Texans ownership because they promised him a seat at the table in certain team decisions and reneged on that promise. All Blank has to say is “we are rebuilding and you will have a word in the decisions” and Watson will eat that **** up. He follows that with, “ I am here because I’m the only one that can promise you that seat”… Done deal.
