He was dominant in Houston. Too bad with the injuries and never having a good QB.Most dominant player I've ever seen at his peak. Could do basically everything and even managed to surprise you in other ways.
Yeah at his best he was pretty much unblockable. He and Aaron Donald.Most dominant player I've ever seen at his peak. Could do basically everything and even managed to surprise you in other ways.
Unfortunately he didn’t play with a good QB until Watson arrived and Watson suffered an acl tear while Watt had his own injuries to deal with. No high end QB during his prime. Elite non QBs should not be judged on whether they win a ring or not. Not much Watt can do with a lousy QB.Well earned retirement, he was one of the big reasons I got into football in the first place. One of, if not the most dominant players I've ever watched when he was in his prime. It's really a shame he couldn't go out with a ring.
QB has more direct impact on the results of the team. But also the QB needs to organization to be well run.This also shows the difference between how players at every position get evaluated vs QBs.
Any other position gets evaluated by how they played compared to their peers, yet with QB, it all comes down to Super Bowls. Watt was amazing. He's going to walk into the Hall of Fame without a single person doubting his resume, yet had he been a QB who collected the same kind of awards and accolades minus a Super Bowl win, much of football media would act like he's not deserving of the Hall of Fame.
This SB or loser mentality is obviously most prevalent in the empty yelling hot take shows, but sadly, those garbage shows drive way too much sports media conversations.
Trent Dilfer was better than Marino, you are wrong.This also shows the difference between how players at every position get evaluated vs QBs.
