Wouldn't It Be Nice?

[Stout]

Wouldn't it be nice if JJ Watt could manage a whole season next year? Man, what a boon that would be to our defense. I have to at least try to be positive about something ATM with this team, because it's so easy to doom and gloom in our awful situation. And, hey, maybe Keim will somehow become a draft guru this year

Yes Stout… it would be nice. But if it walks like a duck and talks like a duck…well, ducks don’t talk. Lol

It would be nice.

I don’t count on Watt at all. Yes it would be nice but just setting yourself up for another let down. He will tear or pull something scratching his ass in pre-season.

He played a whole season the year before last.

 

[GatorAZ]

We should put him on the Kawhi-plan and never have him play b2b games.

 

[PACardsFan]

This team so needs a stud defensive tackle, with or without a healthy Watt. The interior of both lines needs major physicality upgrades.

 

[Totally_Red]

It would be nice. Defense went into a nosedive after his injury.

Again, we are depending on older players and praying “ one more year”. Hey we own him for 2022. I hope I’m totally wrong. I’m not praying for failure.

I pointed this out in another thread recently. Football Outsiders crunched the numbers on age vs injury and found little difference.

The odds of missing 1 week for a 25 year old was 36%. For a 31 year old it was 39%. Not much difference.

For 4+ weeks for the same ages it was 16% vs 19%.

The risk is overstated.

I wonder how that study plays out for oft injured players.

The gloom and doom on this board doesn’t even bother me anymore. It’s just funny now.

Did they crunch the number for dudes who have missed 42 games in the past 6 years like JJ?
