I would expect TJ Watt to return soon after four weeks of being on IR

    The guy is a machine.
    I still wouldn't rush him back though. This season may already be a wash.

    I wonder does he have a snap bonus or playoff bonus as well .. I say he should say F the playoff bonus and only play the snaps if and when you ready.. Something to follow this season I would say...

    Men built like TJ (mentally) don't have mindsets like this. People with this mindset don't typically tend to succeed in anything that they do.

    Agree. Watt needs to go on permanent IR if Steelers are 2-6 or 1-7 at the bye.

    That guy is a game wrecker to offenses.
    He makes every defensive down interesting the way Barry Sanders did on offense.

    i'm pretty sure it's "okay to say that" even if you weren't a girl. unless you're some backwoods twit that doesn't know how to live in the modern world.

    Guess we’ll see when he reaches out to grab someone and it pulls on that pec.

    I am with @HeinzMustard to an extent.


    Hold off on TJ Watt as long as one can. He will be needed no doubt but losing him again is not ideal. Highsmith has come on for certain but TJ Watt is the engine of the defense; a team and never mind defense that misses him dearly.

    I'm sure we all would love to have TJ back on the field. I think its premature to think 4 weeks though. The initial was 6 weeks. This would bring him back against Tampa if he is cleared.

    no offense but the modern world is pretty gay… like in 80s terms when it wasnt offensive to say that because it really meant lame before that term became a fad. I digress.

    He's a beast..... now get him a QB that makes the degenerative bit have to work so hard to win a game.

    Well in the NFL they better because they are just a piece of meat so they better protect themselves is all I am saying ..Don't let the staff rush you back nor rush himself back , he is to good to shorten his career by playing hurt..
