Week 13’s matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals is beginning to look like a layup for T.J. Watt to stage a bounce-back game after his poor performance last Thursday against the Cleveland Browns in Week 12.
While 2024 has highlighted Watt’s ability to defy the hands of time, the 30-year-old edge rusher is coming off his worst statistical game of the season. In Week 12 against Cleveland, Watt failed to record a single QB hit or sack and managed to hurry Browns QB Jameis Winston on just two occasions.
However, Watt’s proven track record against the Cincinnati Bengals should excite fans for what the former 2021 Defensive Player of the Year has in store for Week 13.
Watt is averaging nearly one sack per game against the Bengals and has recorded at least half a sack in every matchup with Cincinnati since 2021.
The 8-3 Pittsburgh Steelers will heavily depend on Watt’s elite pass-rushing abilities to pressure Cincinnati’s outstanding offense, led by prolific QB Joe Burrow. Fans can look forward to the action in Week 13, on December 1st at 1:00 PM EST.
