I just wish he won a Super Bowl.
It’s sad he wasted his career on the Texans he was just to loyal
He deserved one
Same
@@chilledvibes7470 maybe
I think everyone has
One of the most fearsome DE in his era. And an even better man in real life.
Watt deserves the HOF and so much more
He’s a first ballot Hall of Famer, no question about it. I also agree, JJ Watt is a great person as well.
Watt did so much for houston, hes a great guy.
The big brother every man deserves
Would you rather have JJ or TJ as a rookie on your team's defensive line!
@@Jay-n262I say JJ & honestly I think JJ is a better overall plyr too! JJ was just a beast yo! He just wrecked games! He was almost unblockable during those 3-4 yrs he had b2b2b where he won two DPOY awards! I think b2b DPOY too if I'm not mistaken..
Bro, I watched this man play his entire career. In his prime, Watt was A PROBLEM. He should have won MVP in 2014.
Definitely should have won MVP. When the race is one defensive player and a qb. They should have picked the defensive player for the fan candy
I think they should’ve too. He deserved it. Plus it would’ve cemented his legacy as the best or easy top 5 defensive players ever
YES. Dude was unreal.
Defenders who wreck games are far more valuable than offensive players who control a game. Watt deserved it over Fraudgers.
Watt is so loved in Houston that he can live here for the rest of his life and not have to spend a single dime. I'm not kidding, we love him and everything he did for our city, even my friends who have no clue about the NFL know him and appreciate him. He's straight up royalty in this city tbh and I love that he has mutual love for the team and the city.
Lmao this guy would let JJ impregnate his wife too
The team is absolute trash. Who would love that franchise? Lol
@@jarlwhiterun7478keep sleeping bud 😈
@@jarlwhiterun7478 JJ Watt clearly does and so does Demeco Ryans? What are you even on.
@@jarlwhiterun7478 keep on hating!!
As a Steelers fan I was ecstatic to see we drafted his brother, this dude was a beast and it makes me sad that he was injured as often as he was.
same bro
Here we go Steelers
Same. Gotta hope this past season was an outlier for TJ and not him following in his brother’s footsteps injury wise
As a Dallas fan, you're welcome. Our dumbass coaches thought a soggy Taco was better than a Watt because of "scheme".
As a packer fan and a wisconsin kid i'm pissed we didn't draft him
Even when he was the enemy on the opposite side of the team, I will always respect JJ Watt. And I will always remember him for his role on the Houston, hurricane relief efforts
She?!?!
Trans icon JJ Watt 🏳️⚧️
She trololol
My bad “he”
People forget his rookie year, when 3 little kids lost their parents and were all hospitalized after an accident. JJ told his people to go take care of their bills while he also visited them and let them know they were not alone. He just said that he heard their story and being new in Houston, he could empathize with being alone. Also swore everyone to secrecy.
If a hospital employee hadn't blabbed, no one would have ever known.
It's a shame injuries played a part in his career. He was a beast on the field and so fun to watch.
First ballot HOF for sure.
his texans days were insane
“Every other year Watt”
Uh, what?
As a little girl growing up in Houston everyone and their mom was obsessed with him
Really? Lol I can actually see that though. Very Americana Macho male vibes
@mankuro the women in my family all swooned over JJ lol
@mankuro he had a crazy low body fat percentage. Usually guys at his position have a belly but he's fucking shredded.
Houston Texans fan here - this man was huge impact against any team. Requiring double teams, TE's to block, taking so much attention to one side no matter what side he lined up on. I forever and always will say that he deserved MVP!
Texan fan here too... today is opening day 2023.....'hey ho let's go '❤😅❤😅
2-2 so far let's keep going
@@Rez12121 Bulls On Parade Baby!!!!
the new age! Loving it even if we have another losing season, progress is being made!@@Rez12121
Man, JJ Watt as a hockey player would’ve been fucking WILD to see in all the best ways possible.
Dude was a beast and had The NFL on notice. Was fun to watch. Great video
Watt being a pizza delivery guy makes his SNL skit a lot funnier lol
Houston Fan here! JJ Watt is the one dude I can think of that signs a $100,000,000 contract and no one thinks that it was an over pay. Saying he is beloved in Houston is a major understatement. On the field and more importantly off the field, he was the absolute best
everyone’s always gonna remember him
JJ’s the reason I started playing football, and I’m so sad he couldn’t get a ring before he went out 😔
8:36 No one, I repeat no one, EVER questioned Watt. Ever. Especially in Houston. He’s a legend and one of the GREATEST defensive players OF ALL TIME.
I moved to Houston a month after hurricane Harvey and lived there til 2020.. I was expecting absolute destruction but they came together and recovered faster and stronger than I ever could have imagined and the biggest contributor to that was JJ Watt and let me tell you that city absolutely loves JJ Watt.. JJ was so loved in Houston he was Houston.. at any given time anywhere in Houston you’ll look and see at least 1 person wearing a 99 jersey.. the city had some of the most spirit for all of their sports teams of any city I’ve ever been too and the people are great and so hospitable..
As a texans fan I miss JJ so much!!!
I am confident that there are a few qbs and offensive coordinators who were very happy with his announcement of retirement. I imaged getting hit by him and all I can think of was a quick and very painful trip to the emergency room. The man was a beast. HOF first ballot for sure.
If his body didn’t start giving out on him, he’d probably be a top 3-4 defensive player ever. 3 defensive poy awards is crazy and that was just the start of his career.
An absolute game breaking cheat code in Madden for like 4 years
First ballot HOFer for sure. Just wish he would have won a Super Bowl. He is more than deserving of one.
Even though he slowed down a lot and became injured, he still always got double teamed making a pretty damn big impact on the game. I feel bad he got non-stop injuries, but I'm glad I got to witness him.
Great player, great human being.
JJ Watt is a dominant defensive lineman in the NFL who has been in the league for a long time. He’s a future hall of famer at that. He was big and strong athletic player who never won a Super Bowl.
He was the most beloved player in Houston besides Andre Johnson who also played for the Texans. I hope the Texans will retire his number someday. He retired at the top of his game as a result of being so good at his position.
True legend and sportsmen.
It was an honor to watch his last game
Keep up your fantastic videos, God bless you
I fuckin' love me some JJ Watt. An amazing football player and an amazing person.
To anyone doubting JJ Watt, beyond all the sacks, go look at the all time TFL in a season leaders. JJ has like 4 of top 5 ALL TIME. Dude was setting records for sacks, tfl, and on top of that was batting and intercepting balls. What a game wrecker. 😊
Amazing vid
TJ and JJ are definitely a top 5 sibling duo of all time
Imagine if he went to the Steelers instead of the Cards. The Watt bros and Cam would’ve murdered every team’s QB
@@dafuzzbear7711 whose cam?
@@TheRealMcWafflecam heyward
@@dafuzzbear7711 Problem would have been the salary cap, cause there is no way JJ Watt would have taken a pay cut to just play with his siblings. Considering the reason JJ retired was partially due to health concerns, and partially due to his newborn child, unless the Steelers can match Watt's contract demands, there is no way he is coming to Pittsburgh on the cheap (Steelers also only had $11M of free cap space, Watt's contract with the Cardinals was $14M on average).
Man, the image at 1:46 took me back. I met JJ Watt at some private event by an oilfield company in Midland, Texas in 2012. We had a chance to ask him some questions so I asked why he wore 99. He said it was because he wore 9 in high school, and when he wasn't able to wear that number anymore, he decided to double it up and go with 99. It was a much more interesting answer than I expected honestly, I thought it was just because it was the biggest number but apparently there was more to it than that. This may not be the most interesting fact in the world but it's a special one to me.
JJ is who you want kids to pick as a role model. Works hard, gives it his all, and never gave up. Both on and off the field he was a positive impact for many. Stand up guy.
Even with his injuries, he came back and made plays even in his last game. What a great player.
I still try and model myself after JJ. Great football player, unbelievable work ethic, even better man
He made watching exciting just watching him play. He was fabulous.
As a Texans fan that watched every game I can confidently say JJ was the best player I have ever seen play… I’m not old enough to have seen LT play but JJ was a special player and was robbed of an MVP award.
JJ Watt, a true legend. HOF. Inspirational. He's most def the best Texan ever
Truly one of finest human beings in the world of sports.
I remember watching the first game he came back after wearing that club. When he got his first sack he hopped up and start opening and shutting that hand like a claw at the camera. Everyone in the room and the crowd went wild for that lmaoo
JJ Watt is the best Texan ever. He was a beast in his prime. Thank you for the memories.
His last few years he was hindered by Injuries but he was well on his way to HOF and I do believe his outstanding work for his community is what set him apart
Jj is just a menace
Fr
Do one on Dan Marino the most under appreciated QB ever
He should've been the 2014 MVP
The very definition of a man who gave his body to the sport.
As a Houstonian, we love JJ. Man deserved a Super Bowl. Wish it would’ve been with Houston but just in general he should’ve gotten a win or even a game
Man he’s the beast he deserves a Super Bowl ring.
An all time great!!!!
Imagine if he stayed healthy most of his career he would have had way more than 114 sacks
JJ is a legend and a good dude 👍🏽
That 2011 draft was nuts for edge rushers.
From 2012-2015 he was the most dominant player I’ve ever seen play, regardless of position, on tv or in person…Texans season tix holder
As a Texan fan he was fun to watch I still have his jersey in my closet in mint condition. Just wish we had better coaches back then he deserves to be in the Hall of Fame 🤘🏼🏈💯. Not only he help during hurricane Harvey he paid for someone funeral expenses
you should do one of these for myles garrett, ed reed, ronnie lott or stefon diggs
@KipstersYT i mean like videos on their journey to the league and how their doing in it so far for current players like he did with dk metcalf
Never forget that he played in a 3 defensive linemen scheme which makes it even more insane
The move to Arizona was odd, they weren’t a contender and he wasn’t overpaid, shame he didn’t go elsewhere
He is a freak of nature 😮
The best because he played for my team at his position and what he did for us enough for even my Mom to know about him even though she’s not a sports fan at all like I am.
Good Video 😁💞💗👍
The fucking GOAT!!! MY hero and my idol
Personally I think he was very good at tackling people
That's up for debate😂😂
The fact some teams had to dedicate three players to stop him is crazy
To be fair, offensive tackle is a lot closer to d-lineman than tight end. He easily could have asked to play the position at his original school and see what the coaches say, considering he is a physical freak of nature, I'm sure they would have considered it
Definitely one of the best D.E’s and T.E’s I’ve ever seen
This man transcended from athlete to saint in Houston. You would be hard pressed to find ANY city that loves ANY athlete more than Houston loves JJ
I know Will Anderson will be great, but even if JJ Watt passes some of his knowledge to Will, it’ll be scary 🔥🔥
A behemoth on the field, a gentleman off it
It is scary to think how good he really was. He was a HOFer as is. He would’ve SHATTERED records if he would’ve stayed healthy.
He is still the BEST even though he's retired. But he's still the BEST Defensive Player in my book.
Picking a player that retired a couple years ago for this type of video is insane 😂 everyone remembers how good he was it was less than a decade ago
In my mind watts 2014 season will go down as the greatest season a non QB has ever had, it was the most deserving of the MVP award that any defensive player ever achieved. Had a Hall of Fame career and one of the biggest what ifs, had he not been riddled with injuries he might have given Bruce Smith a run for his sack record.
The big brother every man deserves
Too early for this bro 😅😅
Can you do a series about how good were coaches actually?
He's a beast injuries snuck up on him , he deserved a Ring 💍 nonetheless a first ballot Hof
Easily one of my favourite players ever, period.
He is up there with LT and Reggie. Only player to have 20+ sacks in multiple seasons. Health hurt his career, but still an all time great.
Can you please do how good was tony parker nba spurs player?
👍🏽
He should go into the hall of fame definitely my favourite nfl player
Starting to feel old seeing additions to this series be about players I watched play haha
imagine JJ in hockey 💀
I'd love to see him become a defensive coordinator for the Texans, That would be the ultimate finish to his legacy with the franchise.
He is the greatest defensive player I have ever seen and to me with all these reporters comparing all these new linemen to Lawrence Taylor or being like LT. JJ Watt is the ONLY defensive linemen that had the legitimacy numbers wise and eye test wise to ACTUALLY be compared to Lawrence Taylor and have actual validity
As a a grown man seeing history from my childhood house to support Houston Texans. I was so upses with JJ’s dominants. I was 8 years old at the time when I hear him was drafted and see his dominants in 2012 all the way to 2019. That’s how good he was. Until the younger manager drop JJ and D. Hopkins. And that’s another down fall for the Texans. Two good players at the time for the Texans were A. Foster (runner back) and a Wide receiver, Andre Johnson, before Hopkins comes in after Watt was chosen for the Texans.
He was the best defensive player I’ve ever seen growing up but man Donald so damn good now he the best
Hey I love your channel but I think you should do more baseball content
As a perpetually disappointed Texans fan JJ was the only reason for me to watch a Texans game. Soon as he was done I was done with the franchise. I refuse to give time, money or energy to such a poorly run organization that wasted the talent of so many amazing players. If he had a training staff that would've kept him from doing crossfit bro style workouts he never would have gotten that completely preventable back injury. Thats something they left out. He like so many other players was injured by lifting weights.
He was a beast
If it wasn’t for injuries he would have been as dominant for as long as Aaron Donald has been but he’s still a first ballot HOFer without a doubt
The best part is that if people stay retired then it’s going to be Brady, JJ, and Green all in one class
Aj green not going to be a first ballot
His injuries were such a shame because in terms of peak performance he is right up there with Reggie white and Aaron Donald as the greatest defensive linemen to ever play
He was built different
What up my homie
Watt was so good not one of his 2 teams led him to a super bowl I feel so bad he should be at
Least in a Superbowl bc of his skill
It bugs me how ppl forget how dominant jj was because he had injuries at the end of his career. Recency bias is a btch. One of the most dominant defensive players in the history of the NFL in his prime. Thank god for wade phillips for insisting on that draft pick. Also bugged me how he raised all that money for houston after it was devistated by a hurricane and ppl baselessly accused him of stealing the money even though he made all of where it was going transparent throughout the whole process. They were looking for a reason to hate him then.
The greatest.
jj watt really is him
