TJ Watt is on pace to break the single season sack record

He has 8.5 sacks through 6 games. (8.5/6)x16 = on pace for 22.67 sacks. (He was out for 1 game so he's only played 6 games).
The official record is 22.5 (Strahan, 2001). The unofficial record is 23.0 (Al Baker, 1978).
TJ Watt has 24 Pressures. This puts him on pace for 64 pressures by season's end. The highest PFR has ever recorded was Aaron Donald in 2018 at 70. (Side note: PFR pressures only go back to 2018) (Extra side note: Harold Landry also has an unbelievable 33 pressures so far this year.)
Another fun fact about TJ Watt's: he also leads the NFL in FF since being drafted with a total of 20 in 68 games. Meaning he roughly forces a fumble once every 3 and half games.

Gonna get snubbed for DPOY again?
 
Well he is going to have to get out in front of Miles Garrett in sacks if he is going to break the single season sack record.

As for DPOY, he's been arguable snubbed twice so a third wouldn't surprise anyone. What would be surprising is if he actually won it, not in his abilitly but just the fact the rog allowed it to be awarded to him.

Where did the article come from? It looks copied and paste but who wrote it and when ?

There's a link in my post. It was a reddit post, basically the same as someone here making a thread.


(I actually requested that we change the hyperlink display color to make it apparent when links are posted years ago and for this reason. Hard to see unless you hover over it with your mouse)
 
Probably get 2nd to the new poster boy of the NFL ........Myles Garrett ........ TJs turn to get ***** slapped by the NFL ....... fined for punching ..... he is now evil
Maybe TJ should change his wardrobe when he arrives to the stadium...
 
TJ is earning that money. He wont be snubbed this year
 
In the last few games as soon as he is close, when he does get a sack there will be a penalty against the defense nullifying his sack. There will be no special Brett Favre giving up a sack for Strahan.
