Munchak on J.J. Watt

“I think he takes advantage of your reaction to a play. He reminds me of Ray Childress when he played back in my era with that quickness. He’s heavier than Ray, about the same height, but he’s very active to where he can cut a corner or run around the block and cut the corner and make the tackle for a two-yard loss.

“He reacts quickly to what you do, and I think that’s when he’s at his best. If you overset one, he takes advantage. If you cut him off but you go too far, he can backdoor you. A lot of guys can’t make the play when you do those things, but he can. Your technique has to be very, very sound when you play against a good football player like him. That’s the challenge.”
