    Just double digit sacks is very likely, 20 is probably out of the question though.

    If he gets 10 sacks this season its a great season for JJ.

    I would argue if he DOESN'T get 10 sacks the season is a failure for him.....unless he's disruptive and the sacks are just going to Clowney and Mercilus instead.

    JJ just loves showing off his muscles. Hope he proves his strength on the field this year without breaking down like an old jalopy like he did the past 2 years.

    I keep becoming more and more optimistic that JJ is about to have a really good year for us. He’s definitely never looked more jacked than he does right now if that means anything lol. I just wouldn’t bet against the guy

    60-75% JJ Watt was still elite, as far as NFL DE and DT goes... having 100% Watt = the greatest defensive player that ever lived, which is quite the standard.

    10-12 sacks from JJ is the ceiling IMO

    He didn't have a single sack through 4+ games last year. Not that he was necessarily 110% or whatever, but he played.

    14-15 sacks would be an amazing year.

    If anyone can come back from injuries and become a monster again, it is Jesus James (JJ) Watt!

    Yeah but last year he clearly rushed back before he was 100% and was still facing double teams all the time so he still made the line better just being out there unable to really do much himself. If he's back to 100% or as close to it as he can get, I think the sacks will come.
