I watched TJ terrorize my Buckeyes for years when he played for Wisconsin. He started at Wisconsin as a TE until two knee surgeries. He was not sure if he was going to be able to play football at all until talking to JJ about it. This is why he can catch the way he does.
TJ should have a case for MVP. He is the primary reason the Steelers are 7-7 instead of something like 2-12 right now. Unfortunately the rest of the team is either injured to hell or complete dogshit, so we're staring at our first losing season since 2003. It has been a miserable year for Pittsburgh sports.
He started dabbling with psychedelics and they over took him it seemed like. He seem like that weird guy that talks about going out in a forest and talk to plants and animals and shit lmao, but he was an amazing receiver up until then
He is the best WR to ever do it imo. He doesn't have the career stats but he easily is the best WR of all time when you watch him play. No one comes close.
@@raymondsantiago2411 it would make sense given that he’s single handedly won browns games before while getting triple teamed and held basically every single down
10:00 the consensus currently is that JJ is better, but JJ is also retired (we have his full body of work), while TJ probably has a good 6-8 years left health pending. I and many others believe he will be the better player when he retires and his full body of work can be put on display. As a steelers fan, I have never seen someone change games the way he does from a position other than QB.
He'll probably be the best Defensive player in decades, if not all time, when he's done. There are only a couple players in talks with him for the best and they're done playing.
JJ says definitely at this point that TJ is better. TJ claim his brother was his inspiration. They are an extremely supportive family of each other. And yes they have a 3rd (middle) brother - Derek- played in the NFL.
JJ says little brother TJ is better. The 3rd brother, Derek, was a fullback with the Steelers for a 3 seasons. No one picked him up when he became a free agent.
Another great video, extra special to me since it’s Steelers. Agree with one of the commenters here that the Steelers could have their own wing in the Hall of Fame - from the Steel Curtain to Blitzburgh, they have been known for their defense. Joey Porter is the name you missed. His son now plays for them. My favorite is Hines Ward, best blocking receiver, who redefined the roll of wide receiver to add blocking to their skill set.
Just to add some context to a few of the clips: #15 and #14 were his first game of his rookie year. He had an incredible game. #7 was in overtime of that game. Very dramatic game that the Steelers won because of this play #5 was initially counted at a sack for Watt, which would have broken the single season sack record. It ended up not counting as a sack, but still noteworthy. Love your channel guys!
@@tud21TJ did it in 15. Your point is irrelevant. Doesn’t matter if Strahan played the whole season, he had 16 games to break the sack record, and TJ did it in 15. If TJ did play the whole season, we wouldn’t even be talking about Strahan. But since you want to play that game, by your own logic, neither TJ or Strahan should be above Deacon Jones, because Deacon got 22 sacks in a 14 game season, while it took TJ and Strahan extra games. So Deacon Jones is Number 1.
me and my dad always say that we're not sure exactly what it is about T.J. He doesn't exactly stick out in terms of physique, (compared to other football players obviously) and I wouldn't exactly describe him as the fastest edge rusher I've ever seen. He's just a beast, a force of nature, and every snap he's putting the fear of God into the offensive line in front of him. He only has eyes for the sack.
I'm not a Steelers fan,, but I've always had a respect for the Steelers and the way they play. So many legendary defensive players have been career Steelers. Fun Fact: current head coach Mike Tomlin is only the 3rd different Steelers head coach since 1969!!
TJ Watt is listed as a LB, but that is just how the Steelers do it. OLB typically play what most of the league calls Defensive End. Most of the time TJ will rush the passer, but also drops into coverage from time to time
You need to do one more steeler video before moving on...its called "A steelers Story: Renegade". It is a guarentee chill up the spine video. This is something i know you both will really enjoy.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE find a full vid of “Renegade” Steelers unofficial theme song, played at every game. EVERY player in the league knows of this!!! It’s awesome to watch and being in the stadium is even better. When Steelers need a jolt-play Renegade!!
T J Watt is a menace of a player. He did surpass his brother this year with first 100 games sacks. 2021 he tied the nfl record of 22.5 sacks in a single season. TJ Watt is leading the nfl so far this season with most sack (16). He was on track with hitting the nfl record of most sacks in first 100 games (Reggie White got 105 sacks) But unfortunately TJ got injured and missed most of last year's season. Tj is currently at 93.5 in 101 games. He is for sure a DPOY runner up if not just going to win it. Many teams and coaches have talked about him being a game wrecker. The offense often has to make him a serious priority if not build the game plan around avoiding him.
As an avid steeler fan and frequent game attendee. (I live 45 mins from Pittsburgh) he single handily puts the whole team on his back and makes watching the last two years bearable. A complete beast.
TJ is not overly big, but super athletic and has great instincts for the game. Most of those big lineman just aren't quick enough to keep him out of the back field play after play.
The 3rd brother-Derek also played for the Steelers for several years with TJ. Fullback or Halfback. The Joey they mentioned was Joey Porter- One of the toughest on D on any team. His son JP Jr. is currently on Steelers. Drafted out of Penn State.
Steelers have the best uniforms, and best logo in the NFL, as well as 6 super bowl wins. Pittsburgh is by no means a huge city like like NY or LA or Chicago, but it has the biggest heart and fans. Anyone that goes to Pittsburgh will find the kindest, big-hearted people. If you ask directions, they will not tell you , they will say just follow me and I'll take you there.
Too busy talking youse guys missed I think his best play number 2. Not sure youse realized how incredible of a play that was in real time. None the less cheers mates..Here We Go Steelers!
In many schemes (usually 3-4 schemes) the Sam linebacker's role is closer to that of a traditional defensive end. The end comes down and the Sam LB is on the line in a 3 pt or 2 pt stance, rushing from the edge.
I have to say the availability to play is the only thing that gives TJ the edge on his brother. They both have suffered their fair share of injuries but TJ has played more and has a much bigger impact because of it. They have a 3rd Watt brother Derek Watt he plays fullback and played for the Steelers with TJ up until the end of the 2022 season.
Why does dude on the right look so much like a British Big Ben?! 😂 huge Steelers fan here, you guys are doing awesome stuff!! I have a few legends you should look into from Pitt, Hines ward, Jerome bettis aka the bus, leveon bell. For awhile they consider Ben, Antonio brown, and leveon bell, the 3 B’s. Ben,brown,bell. They were putting up shows.
FYI T.J. has another brother, Derek, who was a fullback for the Steelers for a few years, who ended up being replaced by Cam Heyward's son who was switched over to a tight end position.
You basically have to block him with a really good offensive tackle + giving some blocking help with a tight end in order to limit him. Dude is super athletic and fast, straight game wrecker.
TJ Watt is one of the most dominant defensive players in the league for a team that has had some damn dominant defensive players. He may end up the best defensive player of all time.
Not sure who you have seen or not for the Steelers. I'm new to your videos but I seen Watt & Palumalu reviewed. I strongly recommend QB Big Ben Roethlisberger and be prepared to see a strong, keeping plays alive, gun slinger & Tough as nails unique type of QB! And also Antonio Brown and no comment needed! I really like your guys content and straight forward approach with a good feeling genuine vibe. Keep up the good work! Ok I'm back to seeing more of your videos! Thank You, Shane Vonderstrasse
To be fair, TJ has greatly benefited from the addition of Alex Highsmith as the other OLB. Who do you double team? Each play now requires a double team on one side and a chip on the other.
Opponents have to scheme their whole offense to even hope he dosen't wreck the game. Teams that have success against a LB of that talent (TJ is not the only one, but a prime example)adjust their blocking scheme, the QB stays in the pocket no deep drops (far to fast for that) and double team him and try to block him around a corner... easier said than done as you can see.
The Pittsburgh Steelers rejected the "America's Team" branding because their owner, Art Rooney, believed that the team's primary loyalty should be to the city of Pittsburgh, not a broader national identity; essentially saying, "We are not America's team, we are the Pittsburgh Steelers.".
The Watt brothers all have a J name for their middle initial though the middle brother doesn't go by a two letter nickname. JJ Watt is Justin James Watt. Derek John Watt is the middle brother. He was a FB in NFL for a decent time with Chargers and a few with Steelers. TJ Watt is Trent Jordan Watt. Crazy thing is good as JJ and TJ are in the NFL neither were heavily recruited coming out of high school. They are from Wisconsin. JJ only scholarship was to Central Michigan as a TE. After his freshman year he chose to walk-on at the University of Wisconsin as a Defensive End. He became a 1st round pick, multiple DPoY and future HOF. TJ Watt did get a scholarship to Wisconsin since his brother had a relationship with the head coach. He was also a TE. He went to Wisconsin in 2012 but due to injury and being a TE didn't play at all. In summer of 2015 he ask to switch to defense. 2016 he was a 1st team All-American and then drafted by Steelers in 1st round of 2017. Honestly it is the Watt's work ethic that makes them so damn good. TJ was really raw from technique aspect in his first year on defense at Wisconsin but he worked a lot with JJ in the off-seasons. TJ will likely also be a HOFer by end of his career. They are the only brothers to have both won a Defensive Player of the Year Award.
Steelers run a 3-4 defense. This means 3 defensive linemen and 4 linebackers. The 2 outside linebackers lineup on the line of scrimmage and can rush the quarterback or drop into pass coverage.
I have to be honest: I would shit myself if I were a QB lining up and saw TJ Watt across the line from me. I'd just lay down and give up right there. Please don't paste me, sir, you can have the ball. Russell Wilson and Justin Fields have to be so happy they no longer have to play against him, but with him now haha.
TJ is Trent Jordan, JJ is Justin James, and there is a third brother, Derek John Watt who is a fullback who has played for the Charges and Steelers. Problem is, he goes by Derek and not DJ but that's not as much to buck the trend of his brothers but because DJ Tanner of Full House.
There’s no question, it’s JJ Watt. JJ should have won MVP in 2014, JJ was also voted #1 in the top 100 of 2015. He won 3 DPOY in 4 years. I feel like yall need to watch a better JJ Watt video than the one you reacted to. For some perspective JJ Watts double-team percentage is twice of TJs. The other brother is named Derek, he was a fullback but not sure he’s in the league still. Should have named him DJ Watt.
He had an interception this year against the Rams that is easily better than 20 or so of these plays. He also had a great interception against the Lions a couple years ago. Check those out.
watt got fined for the shooting guns thing forget how much tho. he is for sure a monster but if they double him we have great players on the other side that just are game wreckers too. we are called blitzburg for a reason
I hate to recommend another steeler but LeVeon Bell had his own run style no other runningback would stop moving like he did also just a recommendation but you guys should start looking at players career stats at the end of every video
TJ is the better brother JJ was also incredibly athletic but was a lineman. TJ drops back into coverage a LOT. Maybe not as much now that they sured up their ilb and secondary situation. But hes great in coverage unlike most pass rushers He is also insane against the run. His brother was also, but more as a brick wall than a backfield penetration/yards lost run defender. TJ is also a better strip sack specialist

Fun Fact: TJ Watt holds the record for the Pittsburgh Steelers individual player most amount of sacks before he turned 29.
TJ’s emotion and attitude on and off the field makes him even more valuable. He’s the heart beat of that Steeler defense
I watched TJ terrorize my Buckeyes for years when he played for Wisconsin. He started at Wisconsin as a TE until two knee surgeries. He was not sure if he was going to be able to play football at all until talking to JJ about it. This is why he can catch the way he does.
O one better to terrorize than THE Ohio State University!!!!😂😂 I’m a Penn State fan- WE ARE-PENN STATE❣️❣️
TJ has such great hands because he originally recruited by the University of Wisconsin as a tight end. He switched to linebacker in college.
TJ should have a case for MVP. He is the primary reason the Steelers are 7-7 instead of something like 2-12 right now. Unfortunately the rest of the team is either injured to hell or complete dogshit, so we're staring at our first losing season since 2003. It has been a miserable year for Pittsburgh sports.
Seems like a good season for non QBs to feature as part of the MVP discussion. Appreciate the comment!
No, that award is for quarterbacks these days.
@@tedbenveniste412 The only qbs that even have a shot rn are Dak and Stroud. Mccaffrey, Hill, and Watt are the others that may have a shot.
@@mrfrostwing I honestly don’t care at all
I warned Steeler nation about Mitch Trubisky, but...noooo all y'all thought I didn't know s**t.
He's a bad man.
So hard to block.
Shakes the line off like fleas.
Savage.
Antonio Brown should come at some point guys!! He was arguably the best receiver in the 2010s
Definitely a top-tier receiver until he started acting goofy.
He got cancelled when he turned psycho
He started dabbling with psychedelics and they over took him it seemed like. He seem like that weird guy that talks about going out in a forest and talk to plants and animals and shit lmao, but he was an amazing receiver up until then
He is the best WR to ever do it imo. He doesn't have the career stats but he easily is the best WR of all time when you watch him play. No one comes close.
Till the hit heard round the world. CTE should officially be able to be diagnosed while still alive, he's the perfect example of it.
tj is probably going to go down as the best edge rusher ever. the amount of sacks and forced fumbles he gets is insane
would be true if Myles Garret didnt exist
@@spiderboyneverbrokeagain4742 both great but Watt literally has better stats in every category
@@spiderboyneverbrokeagain4742 As Isaiah said, "EVERY CATEGORY."
@@spiderboyneverbrokeagain4742imagine putting Myles Garrett in the same league or eschelon as TJ Watt.
@@raymondsantiago2411 it would make sense given that he’s single handedly won browns games before while getting triple teamed and held basically every single down
He either gets held or double teamed about every play and he’s still putting up insane numbers. He’s a bad man
The entire family ( J.J., Derek and T.J) are all pro players. T.J. stands for Trent Jordon. Both brothers are awesome in their own way.
It’s rough being a Steelers fan right now but at least we have TJ 😂🙏🏽
For real though lol. He's all we got right now.
Yes. Watching your favorite team going through the rebuilding process and not having a top QB is tough but it happens to all teams
rudolph gave us a good christmas present
What about Mr. Unlimited? Russ is going to give us the ultimate Christmas gift!
I bet you’re happy now! I know I am!
Steelers could have their own wing in the Pro Football Hall of Fame building.
So true!
For sure
They virtually do!!
Yeah and there's still ones that ain't in because of the Steelers bias imo. LC greenwood Hines gary Anderson just to name a few.
15:56 Pittsburgh Sandwich you say? Boy, do I have a sandwich for you if you go to Primanti Bros while visiting 😂
10:00 the consensus currently is that JJ is better, but JJ is also retired (we have his full body of work), while TJ probably has a good 6-8 years left health pending. I and many others believe he will be the better player when he retires and his full body of work can be put on display. As a steelers fan, I have never seen someone change games the way he does from a position other than QB.
TJ watt will go down as one of the greatest edge rushers of all time. Top five easily
Love this!
Things like this are literally the ONLY thing us Steelers fans have to keep us going these days.
Merry Christmas lads!
Glad you enjoyed! Merry Christmas Sean!
He'll probably be the best Defensive player in decades, if not all time, when he's done. There are only a couple players in talks with him for the best and they're done playing.
JJ says definitely at this point that TJ is better. TJ claim his brother was his inspiration. They are an extremely supportive family of each other. And yes they have a 3rd (middle) brother - Derek- played in the NFL.
Or even Leveon bell such a unique running style, patient he literally stops behind the o line and just explodes as soon as a hole opens
His highlight tape is insane
JJ says little brother TJ is better. The 3rd brother, Derek, was a fullback with the Steelers for a 3 seasons. No one picked him up when he became a free agent.
TJ's speed, power and balance to bend around defenders and get to the QB is ridiculous.

u guys earned a new subscriber. great video and love the way u guys break down the plays
Welcome aboard! Awesome 🔥🔥
The league will probably give DPOY (defensive player of the year) honors to Myles Garrett, even if Watt’s stats are better.
Another Steelers player to check out, if you haven't yet, is James Harrison. Phenomenal linebacker. Played the same time as Troy Polamalu.
TJ Watt is listed as a LB, but that is just how the Steelers do it. OLB typically play what most of the league calls Defensive End. Most of the time TJ will rush the passer, but also drops into coverage from time to time

super bowl 43 boys i’m telling you 🔥🖤💛
British guys be honest..is the polamalu vid your favorite..u guys laughed a lot and were perplexed by what the almighty 43 could do
Let’s gooooooooo
If you wona see some crazy hits from the next best Steelers line backer please watch James Harrison, it will not disappoint
Don't worry Nick I also guessed that his name was Tommy John 😆🤣
🤣🤣
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE find a full vid of “Renegade” Steelers unofficial theme song, played at every game. EVERY player in the league knows of this!!! It’s awesome to watch and being in the stadium is even better. When Steelers need a jolt-play Renegade!!
Listen to this guy. Absolutely 100% correct! Nothing like it and so disruptive & intimidating to the other teams! Game Changer!!
Oh yea they ready to become steeler nation 🙏🏻👏
This is a good time to mention that OLB isn't always an indicator of where they line up. He's more EDGE which rushes almost every play
How many INTs does the typical Edge Rusher have, compared to TJ?
No they do like to drop him in coverage more than a typical edge rusher. He's a true 3-4 olb, which do edge rush much more often than 4-3 olbs.
@deaj8450 this is a better way to put it

For the guys, the Killer Bees were Ben Roethlisberger (QB), LeVeon Bell (RB), and Antonio Brown (WR)

In many schemes (usually 3-4 schemes) the Sam linebacker's role is closer to that of a traditional defensive end. The end comes down and the Sam LB is on the line in a 3 pt or 2 pt stance, rushing from the edge.
This is career highlights including this season he won dpoy 2021
If he wouldn't be getting double teamed every play these days...single coverage = sack.
Next time u do a basketball highlights video you should do the 10 minutes of Paul George one

there's 4 boys... Derek Watt was a FB for teh Steelers as well for a spell. And there was a youngest just coming out of college.
Outside linebackers in a 3-4 defense are akin to Defensive ends in a 4-3 defense, both are usually edge rushers.

Play #1 and #2 was versus Joe Burrow and the bengals. Both plays happened the same year too.✨
Damo & Nick fun fact in a clip or two you see Steelers fullback Derek Watt celebrating with his brother TJ.
Love this fact! Wasn’t even aware of a 3rd brother Derek.
Steelers run a 3-4 defense. This means 3 defensive linemen and 4 linebackers. The 2 outside linebackers lineup on the line of scrimmage and can rush the quarterback or drop into pass coverage.
I have to be honest: I would shit myself if I were a QB lining up and saw TJ Watt across the line from me. I'd just lay down and give up right there. Please don't paste me, sir, you can have the ball. Russell Wilson and Justin Fields have to be so happy they no longer have to play against him, but with him now haha.

Lucky #7!
his brother legend jj watt played for houston and arizona who retired now , has a stake in Burnley lol
That’s crazy, thanks for the info!
Talk about the brothers thing is there is a third brother he plays fullback for Steelers too
TJ is Trent Jordan, JJ is Justin James, and there is a third brother, Derek John Watt who is a fullback who has played for the Charges and Steelers. Problem is, he goes by Derek and not DJ but that's not as much to buck the trend of his brothers but because DJ Tanner of Full House.
We're not there yet to officially know who's better because JJ's older and already retired. If TJ continues on this trajectory, it'll be hard to say.
There’s no question, it’s JJ Watt. JJ should have won MVP in 2014, JJ was also voted #1 in the top 100 of 2015. He won 3 DPOY in 4 years. I feel like yall need to watch a better JJ Watt video than the one you reacted to. For some perspective JJ Watts double-team percentage is twice of TJs.
The other brother is named Derek, he was a fullback but not sure he’s in the league still. Should have named him DJ Watt.
He had an interception this year against the Rams that is easily better than 20 or so of these plays. He also had a great interception against the Lions a couple years ago. Check those out.
He's HIM.
If I'm not mistaken Derek Watt plays offense on the Steelers
Greatest defense player on the planet
Leveon Bell,Hines Ward,Antonio Brown etc
There is a third brother, Derek. He is merely really good. :)
watt got fined for the shooting guns thing forget how much tho. he is for sure a monster but if they double him we have great players on the other side that just are game wreckers too. we are called blitzburg for a reason
Do a von miller reaction. That’s a wow factor unlike I’ve ever seen off the edge
Appreciate the suggestion 👍
Should DEF do Joey porter especially now that Joey porter jr plays for us now too! Dude is a legend and his kid is doing damn good too
Ways to stop TJ Watt
1. Hold him (and have refs not call it like usual)
2. Double team him (maybe)
3. Use TE or RB to chip him really hard ( maybe)
I hate to recommend another steeler but LeVeon Bell had his own run style no other runningback would stop moving like he did also just a recommendation but you guys should start looking at players career stats at the end of every video
Appreciate the suggestion, think we’ve got him on the list but I’ll add again just to be sure 👍
TJ is the better brother
JJ was also incredibly athletic but was a lineman.
TJ drops back into coverage a LOT. Maybe not as much now that they sured up their ilb and secondary situation. But hes great in coverage unlike most pass rushers
He is also insane against the run. His brother was also, but more as a brick wall than a backfield penetration/yards lost run defender.
TJ is also a better strip sack specialist
You should check out polamalu swan and most of the 1970 seasons of the steelers
TJ has passed his Brother now
