BEREA, Ohio -- Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson stood behind a lectern after the worst statistical game of his career. In a 34-7 home loss to the Dallas Cowboys in Week 1, Watson posted an 8.3 total QBR and averaged 2.6 air yards per attempt, both career-low marks. He was indecisive, his downfield targets were erratic, and he was sacked six times as his offensive line struggled.
In the aftermath, Watson was asked if such a performance could shake his confidence.
"Hell no," Watson answered. "I'll always be Deshaun Watson, regardless of whoever else says otherwise.
