J.J. Watt has practice dancing, as his third TD ties the Fridge
Posted by Darin Gantt on October 10, 2014, 5:27 AM EDT
As if J.J. Watt wasn’t already a legend for his dancing skills, he’s now equaled one of the all-timers.
His 45-yard fumble recovery for a touchdown in last night’s near-miss against the Colts was his third touchdown of the year.
The last defensive lineman to score three in a season was William “The Refrigerator” Perry in 1985.
“Big play, but at the end of the day, not enough,” Watt said, via Tania Ganguli of ESPN.com. “Gotta find a way to do more.”
That hardly seems possible, as good as it was at his day job.
He also sacked Colts quarterback Andrew Luck twice and batted down three passes, sparking a furious comeback from what appeared to be just another Thursday night seal-beating.
That they lost 33-28 to fall to 3-3 was almost a subplot, as the Texans showed they were a legitimate team in the process of coming back, able to make plays on offense occasionally too.
“It is a tough loss; it is frustrating,” Watt said “But I really don’t think that it’s — it’s definitely not time to panic. There is no doubt about that. It’s not time to panic. The way this team fights, and the way that these guys battle, and the way we go out there and we give what we have. We just can’t give team 24 points to start a game.”
While Watt’s playing MVP-caliber football, mistakes by the offense doomed the Texans last night, and some day they’ll regret not doing more to find a quarterback this offseason, since the other parts are well in place.
