Buckweath Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 (edited) I would have thought this was clear but Rams fans are pushing me. Well, let's see. Two amazing players for sure. Edited December 4, 2018 by Buckweath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammymvpknight Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 both are among the best I’ve ever seen. White and Taylor are the only two in their class in my opinion (out of the guys I’ve seen). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calvert28 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Don't get me wrong I love Donald. But there hasn't been a DLineman as dominant as a prime Watt other then The Minister of Defense himself. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TXsteeler Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 People were calling Prime Watt a possible contender for the greatest football player of all time, and that was a pretty widespread opinion. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrOaktown_56 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Donald. It's not a popular opinion, but I've watched them both play and I'm comfortable saying that. I don't even know that we've seen Donald's peak yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peterson had one of the GOAT seasons and essentially carried his team to the playoffs.* Not that Watt didn't also contribute greatly to a playoff berth, I just think Peterson was slightly more valuable that year. Quote both are among the best I’ve ever seen. White and Taylor are the only two in their class in my opinion (out of the guys I’ve seen) I agree with this.

Destructo Spin Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 If we were just going on pass rush alone, I'd say it's close. Donald getting sacks from the inside is probably slightly more valuable than Watt getting sacks from the edge, interior pass rushers being a harder thing to find than edge guys. However, it's not just pass rush, Watt in his prime racked so many passes defensed you'd think you were looking at a cornerback's stat column. And I believe he had 40 TFL's in a year when the next closest player had like 20. Watt, not close. And that's not me trying to take anything away from Donald who is a fantastic player. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ET80 Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Prime Watt. No disrespect to Donald, but Prime Watt was like nothing I've seen before on a football field. He was a rare player, a non-QB who elevated his entire unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntonChigurh Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Donald is better inside, Watt is better outside, both can switch positions. Depends what you want. If You need to attack the inside and swallow up the run generating pressure upfront, I am taking Donald all the way, If you need to stop outside plays and get a dominate outside Pass rush, I am taking Watt all the way.

El Ramster Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 (edited) Why not enjoy both. Why does one have to be better than the other. We’re witnessing greatness at a record breaking pace. Edited December 4, 2018 by El ramster 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
