Why betting on two-time reigning sacks champion T.J. Watt to repeat is actually a bad idea

Pittsburgh Steelers edge rusher T.J. Watt is the betting favorite to lead the NFL in sacks in 2022 with 5-1 odds at Tipico Sportsbook, and why wouldn’t he be?

Not only is Watt the reigning Defensive Player of the Year, but he tied Michael Strahan’s single-season sack record last season with 22.5.
