The Houston Texans needed their defense to come up big Monday night and they certainly did just that holding the Bengals to just six points and Andy Dalton to less than 200 yards passing. Of course when you talk about the Texans playing big on defense you inevitably end up talking about J.J. Watt. he had a good game overall, but his biggest play came late in the game when he whipped Eric Winston and sacked Andy Dalton.
Watt was given full credit for the sack even though Whitney Mercilus was in on the hit as well. Heck--it actually looks like Mercilus knocked Watt flat on this back. Anyway...Watt got the credit and with it moved in front of Derrick Thomas for the second most sacks in a player's first five seasons (behind only the late great Reggie White).
