Steelers' TJ Watt Has Major Flaw In His Game According To Browns Rookie Tackle

[SteelerNation.com News]

The Pittsburgh Steelers 2023 season did not get off to a good start after a blowout loss at the hands of the San Francisco 49ers. With a final score of 30-7, it was immediately realized by the fan base that the preseason hype may have been too much after all. Week 2 will bring another home game and this time, it will be Monday Night Football. The Cleveland Browns will come to town after an impressive Week 1 win against the Cincinnati Bengals. Pittsburgh will have a tough hole to dig out of if they begin the season 0-2, making Monday night's matchup pivotal.

"Major Flaw," that was kind of click bait. Appreciate the articles but the kid pointed out he may be able to use his long arms to his advantage and called Watt a great player. I wish when some of our players discuss the upcoming opposition with the media, they could be this diplomatic.

I hear ya..
But remember those comments were from an Offensive Linemen.....they seem to be a lot less braggadocios, reactionary. and overly emotional as some other position players..

Meh, the Knock on Dawand was slow feet… so of course he is going to emphasize his length.

Just reminded me of the old saying there always is a plan until you get knocked in the mouth. ( or something along these lines).

I fixed it for ya man..

Mike Tyson agrees with that message.

The only flaw I see in TJ's pass rush is I worry he's going to pull a groin with his celebration kick. But he's had so much practice doing it, he's used to it by now.

Get ready for Sunday rook

DeShawn probably chyt his self after reading the rook's comments...

Exactly and the word I'd use as well. Trench Workers seem to be more down to home and mentally fit then some of the other positions.


Salute the nation

Yeah, calling what the guy said "bulletin board material" is a bit of a stretch, as well.

He’s not playing this weekend but he’s starting on Monday night.

 

[SteelerSask2]

At least their guys are talking dumb **** this weekend instead of the Steelers.

I really liked Dawand coming out of Ohio State. He doesn't have a great work ethic but you can't deny the size and skills. I hope TJ has a huge game because we need it. But it also wouldn't surprise me if Jones holds his own on Monday. Can't teach 6-8 375lbs with 36"+ arms and nearly 12" hands. Dude is a mountain.

Yep. Despite the limitations on the work aspect, his size and raw talent alone provide huge upside as a very good tackle for a long time.

Watt is looking at 3 or 4 sacks in this game. Write it down.

He's so flawed he shares the ALL Time NFL single season sack record.

Nobody is perfect,but you can be really damn good.
