There was a stretch where Watt wasn’t just the best defender. He was one of the best players in football, period. Three Defensive Player of the Year awards. Multiple 20-sack seasons. Swatting passes at the line, blowing up screens, living in the backfield. Offenses had to build the entire protection plan around 99. Power through double teams. Hands that shed blocks instantly. Motor that never cut off. For a few years in Houston, every snap felt like pressure. Was peak JJ Watt the most dominant defensive prime of the 2010s? 👇 #JJWatt #Texans #NFL #DefensivePlayerOfTheYear #PassRush #NFLHistory #FootballEdit (via htiime on TT)
