Got JJ?
Like Scooter said, don't think so. Also, I can't see a player from Houston getting an MVP unless they won the Super Bowl and paid off the U.S. debt.

Not that I saw. The rule is no impact to the knees and no contact above the shoulders. I replayed both licks at least three times. The initial contact for both tackles occurred in the thigh area.

Not to mention on one of them the oline was blocking him in the back to the ground that's why he was so low on that one hit.

Yup, both were mid thigh hits.
I generally wait to see if any fines were handed out. Refs making these calls during a game... bound to be a few boo-boos. I'm told they get graded & there jobs depend on that ranking.
If the NFL levies a fine, that tells me it was in fact "illegal" if there is no fine, ref made a mistake.

I haven't read the entire thread. Has anyone pointed out KJ putting his hand behind his head like Dion as Watt crosses the goal line? That's funny.

You know what's gonna happen, right? Ebola in Dallas. Texans and Cowboys play this week. JJ Watt is gonna get ebola. Boom. Career over. SMFH. **** our luck.
Has anyone mentioned the great effort by KJ getting the big block? Great timing on a corner blitz and situational football. KJ did a great job.

JJ gave hime props in an interview after the game on his blocking and said he'd never would have made it if it weren't for KJ

It was actually fortunate because KJ came on a corner blitz and was immediately able to block Manuel.
No.
Ebola is going to come into contact with J.J.Watt's sweat resulting in the complete eradication of the disease in all of Texas plus adjoining parts of Louisiana, Oklahoma, and New Mexico. Ebola will also stay the hell out of Wisconsin, just to be safe.
Yeah, a couple of pages back.
And like Wolf posted, J.J. himself gave K-Jax props in the post game interview.

True enough, but at least 1 time the ball had been released long enough before that JJ could have held up.

Most ridiculous comments of the week came from a member Kastion, from the Cowboys board
So he's saying Watt will get destroyed if he lineup against those two ROOKIES and that Watt is one dimensional and only is a good pass rusher. Delusional Cowboys Fan at its purest.

We're in uncharted territory. That's two agreements in a row.
I'm confused. Did he buy her the SUV or Camp Randall
...or both...

Most of the hardcore and knowledgeable Cowboy fans I know and respect their opinion know what JJ is capable of. But that opinion reeks of somebody who just watches the Cowboys on Sundays and then forgets about the rest of the NFL. These are the same fans who usually hate on Tony Romo for bobbling a FG against the Seahawks years ago or other various reasons that do not make a lot of sense and have a general idea that the Cowboys will contend no matter who the coaches are or the players on the roster. Unfortunately the population of one group is much more significant than the other.
What?English please.
Most cowboy fans know they suck and that JJ is gonna destroy them more than likely

Exact same white Land Rover was curbside in front of my office when I left work yesterday. Right side drive of course. First thought was that JJ bought me one as well...

he sacks the qb
tackles for loss the rb
gets TD with the defense
gets TD with the offense
stops kicks/punts/conversion attempts
maybe he will produce the best antibodies against ebola too...

Can't believe they even FLAGGED Watt on those ***** ass plays, but I can believe they fined him.
SMH. This league sucks. Watt and the Texans are the only thing truly holding my interest.

That's really not the point. I really have a problem with ANY business that fines it's employees. It's like expos factos laws.
The monetary agreement has been breached unilaterally. I really don't want to go down that path. Suspension perhaps, but not continued play at reduced compensation.
Imagine your employer unilaterally decides that their light bill should be distributed among it's employees and just deducts it from your next check. Or that the compensatory sick day you were due will be charged back to you because the Boss was having a bad hair day.
I'll have to go back & watch the second one. The first one, I didn't think it deserved a fine, unless they are saying he had time to pull up, which is arguable.
JJ Watt came to my daughter High School football game last night. It was Dawson vs. Pearland and since he lives in Pearland he came to our game. He's been to several Dawson home games over the last few years. He stood under the north end zone goal post, we figured so as not to takes sides, and stayed til the end. The tv cameras were on him several times and the fans and kids loved it.
Thanks JJ for coming to our game last night, you made a bunch of kids and their parents happy.

Nice rant...
...other than the fact the fines are agreed to by the players.
Yes that is the rule they justified the fines under. But JJ hit him on the thigh pad both times and so should not have drawn a flag for either.
Unless that ref decided that "around the knees" means anywhere below the navel.
