Giants vs. Steelers (TJ Watt sack on 3rd play of the game)

[Clove]

I get talent, then worry about what he does after.

 

[CATCH17]

Lol and he looks bigger then he did in college.

Probably hopped on that HGH like his bro.

 

[CATCH17]

Name another 4-3 DE his size.

If you want to argue that we should be running a 3-4 because pass rushing OLBs are easier to find than 4-3 DEs, I'm with you, but arguing we should have drafted Watt for our current defense won't fly.

I agree.

It's like having Clay Matthews and telling him to stick his hand in the dirt for 3 downs... What's the point?

 

[Bizwah]

The Giants OL is one of the worst out there.

 

[LocimusPrime]

Looked like some good power into Flowers' chest.

It was!

 

[CT Dal Fan]

Jason Taylor who was just inducted to HOF played at that weight in 4-3. How did that turn out? I think we need to stop typecasting players and just draft them on their ability to get to QB.

I agree. The Cowboys had Watt rated almost as high as Charlton and went with the guy that they thought could carry more weight and stuff the run better. I understand your point but it's a bit early to start predicting these guys' careers.

 

[gmoney112]

Watt is a 245 pound 3-4 outside linebacker, so he wouldn't hold up in our 4-3.

Well, that and the fact that he's had 4 surgeries, 2 on each knee.

I like Watt but he had risk.

 

[LocimusPrime]

If we had Oliver Vernon via free agency, Landon Collins via draft, and tj watt via draft- we would be Super Bowl bound.

 

[WillieBeamen]

At least the Giants still cant run the ball

 

[LocimusPrime]

Once watt got that special sauce he went up from 245 to 265.

 

[Zordon]

I agree.

It's like having Clay Matthews and telling him to stick his hand in the dirt for 3 downs... What's the point?

Elvis Dumervill was 5'11, 250lbs.

TJ Watt is 6'4.5 250 lbs (plus he looks bigger tonight)....he's not that small.

 

[Hawkeye19]

Remember when people used to debate that Shawn Merriman was the better pick than Ware early in their career?

Lol-- good times

I'd like to see juuuuuust a few more snaps before rendering a judgment on whether TJ Watt was the better pick than Taco

 

[superonyx]

Okay I'll say it, why didn't we draft Watt?

Because we don't run a 3-4 like the steelers. The guy is a speed guy and doesn't show the power and size to stop the run.

I believe the eagles rookie DE had 2 sacks last night?

 

[stiletto]

Too early to really tell but Watt looks like a monster to me....we might regret that pick.

 

[gmoney112]

Because we don't run a 3-4 like the steelers. The guy is a speed guy and doesn't show the power and size to stop the run.

I believe the eagles rookie DE had 2 sacks last night?

Barnett? Now that's a guy I wish we had a chance to get. I'm going to hate seeing him in Philly.

 

[Zordon]

If we had Oliver Vernon via free agency, Landon Collins via draft, and tj watt via draft- we would be Super Bowl bound.

Dude if we just had Ratliff, Ware, Spencer, and Hatcher back we'd AT LEAST made the Super Bowl last year.

 

[wrongway]

Screw it. Let's get all of the bad news out of the way today.

While we're at it eagles added a cornerback.

 

[Clove]

Because we don't run a 3-4 like the steelers. The guy is a speed guy and doesn't show the power and size to stop the run.

I believe the eagles rookie DE had 2 sacks last night?

So he can't add 10 to 15 lbs?

 

[Setackin]

Watt is a 245 pound 3-4 outside linebacker, so he wouldn't hold up in our 4-3.

Gregory was a similar size... TJ Watt is ticker too.

 

[Jake]

Okay I'll say it, why didn't we draft Watt?

He's a 240 pound OLB in a 3-4.
