JJ Watt reinjured his back, out for a while; possibly the season.

Nobody used to have a bad back. This will be an issue for the rest of his career.

Sucks he got injured, but the Texans defense is better without him, imo. The way he's given free reign to choose what position he plays (based on wanting to line up against the weakest blocker) makes their defense overall worse while he racks up statistics.

god yes. jj watt is annoying and his cult of personality has led to a massive overrating of his actual skills. he's a top five defensive player in the leauge and i'd jizz my pants if we got him, but a more traditional scheme might actually help them be harder to scheme against.

that said, this is a huge loss for them and this is going to be the jags best chance to finally win that division, if they can pop their heads out of their asses and finish a damn game.

That is horrible.  Classless.  You should find another team. 

Oh you know me, I say things sometimes just to get a reaction. You know, like Donald Trump.

That sucks. I swear once you legitimately injury your back, it never heals to pre injury form.

I hope this doesn't develop into a chronic issue for him.

Sucks for JJ. Feel bad for him.

On the other hand, this substantially increases Luke's shot at another DPOY win. Frankly there isn't much competition at this point.

Just win.

Man that does suck.  He's on of those NFL stars you hate to hear talk or hear about them outside of the game, but on game day, he's so good.  He's such an amazing player.  I hate it for him.

fug did we sign JJ Watt or something? or am I in the NFL news forum? 

You fail, nobody cares.

As someone that has had my share of back issues over the last 10 years, I feel really bad for him.

Like someone else said earlier, "you never hear of someone that had back problems".
