Despite Quiet Week 12, T.J. Watt Remains Clear Favorite To Win DPOY

It was Myles Garrett, not T.J. Watt, who stole the show last Thursday night. Garrett posted three first-half sacks to lead the Cleveland Browns to a 24-19 upset over the Pittsburgh Steelers. On the other end, Watt had one of his quietest pass rushing performances of his career. No quarterback hits, no sacks, maybe one pressure (though we officially charted him with zero), and being schooled by Browns RT Jack Conklin in their baker’s dozen of one-on-one matchups. Garrett is closer to the top of the sack leaderboard than Watt. But Watt remains at the top of the DPOY oddsmaker’s list, still the favorite heading into Week 13.
