Cam Heyward Sends Message to Worried Fans About TJ Watt's Argument With DC

Week 4 was emotional for the Pittsburgh Steelers when they took on the Cleveland Browns. 

Whenever the Browns and Steelers meet, it's typically one of the most action-packed games of any NFL week. 

They're arguably the league's biggest rivals, and because of that, we can see different things happen compared to other games. 

As for what happened in this game, a video showed T.J. Watt taking one of his coaches' headsets to yell at his defensive coordinator. 

That went viral instantly on social media, which wasn't a surprise. Reports then indicated the Steelers' locker room wasn't together, with head coach Mike McCarthy even saying things had to change inside it.

As for how other veterans feel, star defensive tackle Cam Heyward had a lot to say. 

Heyward has been around the Steelers organization for quite some time now and understands what it takes to win in Pittsburgh.

“We’ve always had emotion,” Heyward said this week, via the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. “I don’t think that’s anything to shy away from. I’ve always been someone who tends to get a little feisty on the sideline. I’m not going to apologize for that. That’s part of the game. We hold ourselves to a high standard. We expect a lot out of our group. When we don’t, we’re pissed off because of it.”

“There was a lot bothering me in that game,” Heyward said. “I just didn’t like the way the game was trending. There was a multitude of things. You can go back to any team and see there are times when it takes some of your leaders just getting a little more pissed off, and we shouldn’t apologize for that. We should embrace it in our game and we should move on and find how we can get better.”

It's impossible to disagree with what Heyward is saying here because he lives in the moment. 

For a guy who understands what it takes to win at this level and what Pittsburgh needs to get to, I have no problem with him being emotional. 

I said the same about Watt, because I believe both guys are just trying to keep others accountable. If we have a problem with that, the Steelers' season won't be anywhere near what anyone expected entering the season.
