  • Burgh radio didnt sound confident on watt

  • Cheap shot Watt needs to honor his contract. 

    If the Steelers cave (unlikely), he should pay Bud Dupree. Dupree is more valuable than Watt.

    Stop it. Cheap shot watt? Based on what? Beyond that and really the most absurd. Dupree is more valuable than Watt? On what planet? Watt is one of the best players in the league. Dupree is good but he isn’t watt, not right now at least and likely never. 
    He also practiced in full today.

    Don’t listen to burgh radio. It’s horrific almost entirely across the board.

    He's one of the worst in the United States unless he's talking about the pens. He stirs the shit.  I can't stand him and never could. He loathes a lot more than that. He epitomizes the worst of the Pittsburgh fan base. A shock jock. 

    And TJ just signed a mega deal soooooo

    Sooooo you and many Steeler fans are happy, yay.

    Bud Dupree did the dirty work, TJ got paid. Funny thing is Dupree had to flee to get paid, while Watt demanded dough while under contract (I know, he's nowhere near the 1st player to do this). 

    Crazy world we live in.

    Come on man. I love Bud and hated to see him go but to imply bud did the dirty work and watt just benefitted is asinine. Absolutely they helped one a other just like every other outside backer tandem in the league. Watt is a generational talent, he's on a ridiculous pace too and he got paid for that production. You act like he forced the contract talks. It was always the plan to resign him now. Minkah next season. I enjoy it here, truly but this take is a bad one and why I don't take a bunch of you seriously.

    You have your opinion , I have mine.

    Dupree played well for 6 years in Pittsburgh, honored his contract, and had to flee to get paid.

    TJ Watt played 4 years (very well), doesn't honor a contract, and gets ultra paid on a cave-in (surprisingly, given the employer). 

    That's stupid.

    I love Bud, I said this already. He didn't turn it on and truly put it together until the final two years on the team. He was raw coming out and it took him a while. Injuries didn't help. He then priced himself out of playing on the steelers with his play BECAUSE the steelers need to sign watt and Fitzpatrick. If the steelers didnt have Watt, Dupree would have been paid. You all are going to start to feel that soon too as your current roster can't be paid long term which is why it's important for teams to draft well.  You have a window now so get ready to see some of this on your own team. You will then reload via the draft instead of FA. 

    I'm used to it as the steelers have been doing it a long time. ??

    it's what steelers do. cheapshot. Pollymalu was a cheap shot artist in college. They took out Palmer's knee on the first drive in a playoff game years ago. Harrison.....Hines ward.....

    Yep. The 31 other teams have been implementing/dealing with salary cap issues as well.

    Basically 5 or 6 guys take up most of every team's cap. You know this. 

    Great for Watt,bad for business.

    Myles Garrett is on a inexpensive contract, aye? Or you are against that too?

    TJ was on the 5th year option his rookie deal and wanted to secure a guaranteed long term future. The kid has contended for DPOY and MVP, he provides a pass rush and TFL threat Dupree could never match.  You're free to cross reference tape, stats, grades and NFL 100 ranking.   The overwhelming majority of players in his position hold-out in his case.  He didn't and negotiated a deal in good faith.  It's about as honorable as you can get.    Incredibly similar to how Myles did it.

    Ignorance and short sightedness is not as valuable as someone else's knowledge or naunced insight.   So, no... Your take is demonstratably garbage.   

    If you shout that the earth is flat then you have that right.  But others have the right to tell you that you're a fucking Retard as well.

    Good faith? Riding a bike at practice, while your team mates are busting their butts during training camp. Under contract & wanting more $$. That's not good faith to me, but yeah,  I'm a "Retard."

    Myles & the Browns reached an agreement ( last year, I think) on an extension. He agreed to the terms, never threatened to hold out, etc. So no, I've got no gripes there at all.

    He was compensated well. Of course, other players at that position will look at the deal and use it as a comparison to get paid. That's how things roll in just about any sport.

    Participant in team workouts, position and 1 on 1 drills, walkthroughs, team meetings but held out on full contact.    A decision likely endorsed by the coaches.  And zero issue being that he knows the defense and is a proven player.  Really no different than veteran rest days.

    Maybe you don't get it, when people say dumb shit, it should bother EVERYBODY.
