Aaron Donald and J.J. Watt are such dominant defenders that the league’s defensive player of the year award feels like it could go to one or both of them every year.This year PFT’s selection is Donald
Senio Kelemete Jersey , who led the NFL in sacks from the defensive tackle position and was a disruptive force for the Rams as they earned a first-round bye in the NFC playoffs. The Rams’ defense as a whole struggled at times, particularly against the run, but Donald absolutely dominates the man in front of him — and often dominates two men in front of him when he’s double-teamed.Watt returned from missing most of the last two seasons and picked up right where he left off, finishing second only to Donald in sacks this season and playing very well against the run. Watt has already won the defensive player of the year award three times, and he easily could have won it a fourth time this year. He’s that good.But we’re choosing Donald
Black Tytus Howard Jersey , last year’s winner, to repeat. The Rams gave Donald an enormous contract this year, but he showed no signs that the money is going to make him satisfied. He wants to be the very best defensive player in football, and for the second consecutive year, he is. As the Texans prepare to face the Colts for the third time this season in today’s first wild card game
White Tytus Howard Jersey , there’s one area in particular where they can feel very good: Their defensive line got the better of the Colts’ offensive line in both regular-season games.Although the Colts’ offensive line was much improved this season, thanks in large part to the arrival of the great rookie guard Quenton Nelson, they struggled against the Texans’ defensive front. In the first game against the Texans, Colts quarterback Andrew Luck was sacked a season-high four times, with J.J. Watt and Jadeveon Clowney getting two sacks each. In the second matchup
Youth Tytus Howard Jersey , Luck was sacked twice. Luck was only sacked 18 times all year, the fewest sacks in the NFL, but one-third of those sacks came courtesy of the Texans.Running the ball, the Colts consistently struggled to create holes against the Texans’ defense. The Colts managed just 91 yards on 40 carries in two games against the Texans, an average of just 2.28 yards per carry. The Colts’ two worst games this season
Tytus Howard Jersey 2019 , in terms of average yards per carry, were in Week 14 against the Texans, when they averaged 2.2 yards per carry, and Week 4 against the Texans, when they averaged 2.4 yards per carry.The Colts still matched up well with the Texans overall
Tytus Howard Houston Texans Jersey , beating them in Week 14 and taking them deep into overtime before losing in Week 4. But if the Colts can improve anything, it would be better blocking against Watt, Clowney and the rest of the Houston front.
