    That is why Bruce Smith's 200 and Reggie Whites 198 seem out of this world considering TJ has probably played more than half his career already and sits at only 77.5 sacks after 87 games played.

    Bruce Smith played in 279 games to record his 200 sacks. I don't see TJ making it to 200 games played in his career. JJ played 151 games and recorded 114.5 sacks, I would bet TJ will beat his brother's 114.5 sacks and play around 12 years just like his brother did.

    Reggie White, and Bruce Smith played in a different system.....they never dropped into coverage....big difference.

    Are you saying that Watt is getting injured by having to drop back into coverage?

    Seems like he would have a better chance for injury when he was battling with lineman rushing the QB, than dropping back into coverage.

    No .....I'm saying He doesn't get to rush the passer every play like White, and Smith did. That's all.

    OK. I thought you were commenting on Bruce Smith's 279 games played vs Watts 87.

    Watt and Heyward both need to step up their game in the playoffs, both of them only have one career sack :rolleyes:.
