Watt Poised to Lead NFL in That Category Again"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p>When it comes to sacks there\u2019s only been one player who\u2019s dominated that category over the<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>last four seasons, T.J. Watt. The Steelers edge has led the league three times, and the one<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>season he didn\u2019t, he missed seven games because of an injury. He should be in contention<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>again for the title, but there are a couple of others who could take top spot, with better odds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>T.J.Watt PIT +400<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since 2020, T.J. Watt has racked up 63.5 sacks and there\u2019s no reason he\u2019ll slow down next<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>season. Watt could see more opportunities to deliver if the Steelers are playing with a lead, and<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>that&#8217;s something that could be different with Russell Wilson or Justin Fields at the helm. Watt<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>played 930 snaps last year and recorded 19 sacks. Despite his numbers, there could be better<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>value elsewhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Micah Parsons DAL +450<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Micah Parsons is turning into one of the best defensive players in the game. Last year, he<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>recorded 14 sacks including at least one in ten games. Since coming into the NFL Parsons has<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>40.5 sacks over three seasons. With more experience, he could reach newer heights in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Parsons led the league in pressures with 103 and should get more chances to sack the<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>quarterbacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Maxx Crosby &#8211; Raiders +550<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maxx Crosby has been incredible for the Raiders. Last season he posted 14.5 sacks on a team<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>that wasn\u2019t very good. Las Vegas will likely have enough touch seasons meaning the<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>opponents will run more often, which will give Crosby fewer chances for sacks. He\u2019ll get<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>pressure on the quarterback but not sure he\u2019ll be near the top of the standings in this category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Josh Hines-Allen Jaguars +1000<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maybe a name change is what Josh Hines-Allen needs to finish with most sacks. Hines-Allen<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>had 27.5 sacks over 57 games in his first three years in the league. Last season, he finished<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>with a career-best 17.5. That puts him in the conversation as his sacks come in bunches, two<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>or more in five games, and three, three times during the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Odds For Most Regular Season Defensive Sacks<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>T.J.Watt PIT +400<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Micah Parsons DAL +450<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Myles Garrett CLE +500<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maxx Crosby LV +550<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nick Bosa SF +900<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Josh Allen JAC +1000<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trey Hendrickson CIN +1000<br>Aiden Hutchinson DET +1200<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When it comes to sacks there\u2019s only been one player who\u2019s dominated that category over the last four seasons, T.J&#8230;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":25258,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[129],"tags":[146],"class_list":["post-25257","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nfl","tag-nfl"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25257","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25257"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25257\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":25259,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25257\/revisions\/25259"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/25258"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25257"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=25257"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=25257"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
