its because he white/non black and managed to do exceptionally well in a black dominated sport, they gotta put the extras on it.
see jeremy lin circa 2012 -

-

They got to grab on to something.

watt is that dude...
mayock aint racist and knows his football
BUT
this post is exactly right -
Meh what he saying is true but I don't take American Football sports writers nor some fans that seriously cause they pretty much say the dumbest ? !!!
-
dude had a great year and is good. but Sapp changed Tampas defense himself... they never blitzed and he was getting big sack numbers from the interior.... Randall was a beast in Minn... Anyway Im not gonna hate on Watt cuz he is ballin...

I am not the most knowledgeable about football before 2001 (did not even know the sport existed). But before we jump to RACISM, post the STATS of the interior DLs who had better seasons.
Mayock is not dumb, he did not say Watt is the best interior DL ever, he did not say WATT is the best defensive player ever. He made sure to protect himself with 2 phrases, "SINGLE SEASON" and "INTERIOR DL".
But, what do i know, shouting RACISM is easier....
THAT MFER IS RACIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -

although it is a racial issue, in my opinion... i aint callin racism at all. its the exact opposite. i respect mayock opinion on football matters. and like i said watt has played exceptionally well, but its a case of "the great white hype".
aint no different than black folks and and the williams sisters and tiger woods before he disowned us lol
-
i'd call this a rash comment before i call racism
-
they did the same thing with clay matthews a few years back (and yall know how much i ? wit my former trojans)
after 1 season they had that fool rated as a top 5 player in the league. c'mon now -

All I need to know. lol -
lmao i knew the race issue would be brought up before i even clicked the thread
with that said i don't agree with the statement but thats his opinion and mayock ain't one these flash of the pan ass media dudes, he knows his ? so i respect it. but like almighty said it do seem rash, so I'll take it for just that..and jj been nice since his rookie year and college, so this not a cat who just came out of nowhere....

Fact
-
So I guess Aldon Smith and dude from Denver are having 2 of the greatest seasons eva from de/olb pass rushers as well
-
Reggie White........ The best damn DL I have ever seen.
-
Mayock have said some dumb ? so I'm not surprised he said this

I forgot about Jerome Brown as well.... I will charge the announcers exaggeration to prisoner of the moment/hyperbole
and the fact Watt swats down a lot of passes -

pretty much. just because he's wrong, if he is wrong, doesn't make him a racist. he's been a big fan of Watt before he was ever drafted. -
Ya'll are overreacting. Dude pushed the single season sack record, got a ton of tackles, forced 4 fumbles, and defended 16 passes. If you think it's such a crazy comment post the season of people you think did better. Stop just sayin names of great linemen. Dudes in here soundin dumb.
Mayock's probably right -
