JJ Watt is an absolute animal....

[Robocop]

that dude is worth every penny. I was hoping for something like this from Quinn this year...

 

[rdlkgliders]

As much of a homer as I am JJ is the best DL in football and I bet Quinn would agree

 

[rhinobean]

He's battling, that's for sure! Clowney's got a lot to live up to!

 

[A55VA6]

May as well just give him the MVP now. Too damn good. Another TD.

 

[Faceplant]

Just signed in to start a JJ thread, but you beat me to it! Dude is pure football. They don't make em like that very often....wow.

 

[TexasRam]

Unmatched motor.

Every snap he plays possessed.

He must be drinking the same stuff Cushing was drinking.

 

[Athos]

Freak of nature...And you don't see him really get called for a lot of penalties either. And he's a pro at tipping passes.

If Quinn can't fight through the holds, etc, maybe work at tipping passes at the line then?

 

[PowayRamFan]

He was flat exhausted towards the end of that game, yet still found a little extra to make plays.

 

[Blue and Gold]

Yeah. love watching him play. He willed the Texans back into the game after a 24-0 1st Q . . .

 

[Elmgrovegnome]

Damnit I turned the game on to specifically watch Watt nd fell asleep after the first quarter. I Hate EST!!!

You think they don't try and hold JJ?
He still overcomes that crap and performs.

That's what I don't get about those that say Quinn isn't performing because of all the holds. If he's truly that great he'd find a way to overcome it and succeed, Plain and Simple.

This is a one to one comparison. JJ watt vs. Tyron Smith, the guy credited with cancelling out Robert Quinn when we played the Cowboys.

 

[Rynie]

He didn't do shit against us though. :banana:

Same Here I think thats the one aspect Quinn can improve, he lets the lineman get their hands on him needs to work on his hand fighting.

Weird though, I didn't see J.J. get held that often. He got double teamed, but I only saw him get held, one or two times. Quinn gets held on every other play, and they are blatant holds.

Watt is one of the best players that I've ever seen play.

I'd wager on that too.

It's not that Robert Quinn needs to overcome it. It's those holds are so blatantly obvious yet they don't get called. Besides, physically they are 2 different types of players. JJ Watt can impose his physical will, Robert Quinn is a speed/finesse guy.

If they are so blatantly obvious why don't they get called?
Answer is they are not. Unless they rip off his jersey or facmask apparently they aren't going to call shit on him....

 

[Thordaddy]

He's a bigger faster Chris Long, and FWIW our defense will be far better once we get CL back, the excellent play of some of our replacements notwithstanding CL is our JJ.
Watt also reminds me of Jack Youngblood just bigger.
