Insane Aaron Donald stat proves he's been best pass rusher since 2015

There was some controversy earlier this month when Aaron Donald was named 2020 Defensive Player of the Year. There was a contingent of fans who felt T.J. Watt was more deserving of the award, which was backed by J.J. Watt tweeting that his brother should’ve won it.

But there’s no doubt Donald has been the best pass rusher in the league for the last six years. Pro Football Focus shared an unbelievable stat that proves just how dominant Donald has been since 2015.

He owns the five highest pass-rush grades in the NFL since 2015. His grades ranged from 93.1 to 94.2, all of which are higher than any other player in the league in the last six seasons.

Donald leads the NFL with 76.5 sacks, 113 tackles for loss and 188 QB hits since 2015. He has 20 more tackles for loss and 47 more QB hits than any other player, and Chandler Jones ranks second in sacks with 73.5.

The craziest part is he’s the only interior defensive lineman with at least 49 sacks in that span. The other 12 players in the top 13 are all edge rushers, with Calais Campbell ranking 14th in sacks (48.5) since 2015.

When TJ Watt gets QUADRUPLE TEAMED... then he can use raw stats...

Also, Aaron Donald's win rate is what? like 3rd all time and insane for an inside defender.

2019 was a grade of 92.8. Was curious since wasn't on the list. What a drop off year that was... Didn't look who had the grade a hair higher to knock this one off the list.

what % of time was he double teamed? triple teamed?
No idea - plus he’s an EDGE rusher - no he’s going to get cleaner shots at the QB. I was poking fun at the Steelers fans who were convinced they beat AD99 for DPOY. No chance, I say!

I don’t think anyone disagrees; TJ Watt had a great season.

He just happens to have a career that overlaps Donald’s.

Sucks for TJ. :p

He did....but the Stillers homers refuse to recognize the difficulty of getting sacks from the inside. There is no stat for when AD pushes 3 offensive linemen into the grill of the opposing QB. He only gets credited by those who understand the game instead of just being guided by statistics, that DE/OLB’s get twice as good sack numbers because of the disruption that he causes all game.

Thanks Elm and No B.S..

With all you been thru, I look up to you Bro.

Yeah the migraines suck, but there's others that have had it much worse, that still push forwards and give me hope.

Your 1 of them.

And ah No imho Rams ain't gonna tag JJ3, but they might rework ADs contract.

We need Cap lol.

I guess JJ Watt's comments means he is not joining the Rams anytime soon.
