You'd think Texans fans would show a little patience with Clowney after they went through the same experience with Mario Williams. Dude wasn't healthy last season and is just coming back from an ACL. He's shown flashes and the athleticism that made him a #1 pick is definitely still there. If the Texans could ever get a lead where teams actually had to throw to catch up, he'd have a real chance to shine.

Oh I do have patience. I want to see more of him and stuff. Yes, I wasn't happy with the selection, but it's what we got for now. Having gone through Mario Williams, I want to see Clowney perform more this year. Again, it's amazing that he even came back when he was supposed to be back next year. All the other motherfuckers here just want to instantly say he's a bust when he's not one, at least not yet.

Fisher is more of a bust, and fuck BigAT.

Texans defense has 6 sacks in 5 games, 4 of which are Watt, teams are holding 7 back sometimes chipping, doubling or tripling watt, and sometimes doubling and chipping clowney, but clowney sure must be a bust. Despite playing in year where literally no one expected him to even play until 2016. Also he's a beast against the run, look it up. Yea he hasn't gotten to the QB yet, and if he keeps getting hurt then that's going to suck but he ain't a bust, yet. And this is coming from someone on the record saying I didn't want him, didn't want to draft any defensive player first overall.

notice who's actually criticizing him, non Texans fans. He's like Dwight Howard or Cam Newton, doesn't matter what he does people are going to hate.

Lucky for you Eagles O Line has been shit this year. They've been getting (marginally) better, and the pass protection has actually been pretty good. But you should be able to get to Bradford without a whole lot of trouble

Hey man, it's not my fault your #1 overall pick (on a team that still doesn't have a quarterback) has 0 sacks through 9 games and has missed 13 games due to injury already. It's not a good look.

Yes, people. I'm absolutely sure Clowney is a total bust, even though he affected some passes like in the Bucs game.

Clowney is a total bust for turning the ball over deep inside the own 10 yard line.

And Clowney is a total bust for shit Special Teams and the secondary not covering shit.

Fucking happy now, all of you?

Yeah, and Mario Williams wasn't injured for most of the 1st and 2nd year also. Okay.

Keep telling yourself that.

Lol come on. Clowney is fucking trash for a #1 pick so far. If he was a 7th rounder fine. But for a #1 pick he is in the running for biggest bust ever. Luckily for him he has time to turn his career around

Hence why I'm not ready to call him a fucking bust yet. Unlike you people, I would wait a LITTLE BIT LONGER before bailing.

Uh...Clowney missed 9 more games in his first year alone than Williams did his first five years in the league combined. How are they even remotely comparable?

Clowney has missed one less game so far than Williams has in nine years combined.

Sting then comes down and saves the day and then wipes his ass with the terrible towel and drops it on The Rapist's head.

That's the true ending of the ppv.

How is it trolling? I don't know how you can possibly call Clowney's career up to this point anything but a failure. He would kill for the "slow start" that Mario Williams had in a similar position.

You cant be serious with saying that people are trolling Clowney. He has done nothing when he has been on the field so far in his career. Still lots of time for him to turn it around though.

Actually, they are pretty fair. Seth Payne and Ted Johnson, the two I respect the most for actual player evals on the team say he is very good against the run but obviously he needs to get to the QB.

failure and nothing so far in his career? Interesting. Perhaps you guys should watch him play, or stop commenting on shit you don't know anything about.

yea yea PFF who gives a shit about their scores, I read what they write, on occaision.
the Texans’ game against the Colts, J.J. Watt was largely invisible. One reason is because Indianapolis rarely ran to Watt’s side. Only six of the Colts 26 carries went to the right of the RG, and Indy only averaged 3.5 yards on those carries. This meant a lot more runs to the left, but they weren’t much more successful there. When running outside of the left guard, the Colts only averaged 3.5 yards per carry. A big reason for that was Jadeveon Clowney. When he was on the field and the Colts ran outside of the left guard, they only averaged 2.9 yards per carry.

For being the first overall pick of the 2014 NFL draft, it seems to many people that Clowney hasn’t lived up to expectations. He’s only played 380 snaps in his career to this point, and has yet to record his first NFL sack.

In reality, however, he has been playing very well in the NFL, especially against the run.

In all nine of his NFL games, he’s posted a minimum PFF run defense grade of +0.4. His cumulative run defense grade of +9.8 this year is tied for the best among all edge defenders. His run stop percentage of 10.0 percent is the fourth-best for all 3-4 outside linebackers. Last night, he had his best game yet in the pros.

When the Colts ran to the left, Clowney had one tackle for a loss and two for no gain, although one was called back due to someone else’s penalty. Twice the Colts tried to do a cut block with a pulling tight end, but neither worked well, and RB Frank Gore was forced to make a cut to avoid Clowney. On another run to the left, Clowney was able to push the tight end back to squeeze the running lane. On those five runs where Clowney was involved (outside of the one called back by penalty), the Colts averaged 1 yard per play. All of this came on just 17 snaps against the run. This led to a +4.2 run defense grade for Clowney, the second-best for an edge defender in a game this season.

As a pass rusher this season, although Clowney doesn’t have a sack, he does have two hits and 12 hurries. His pass rushing productivity of 9.4 is average for a 3-4 outside linebacker, and a big step up from his 2.4 pass rushing productivity last year.

Teams can’t run to the right against the Texans, and thanks to Clowney’s play, they can’t run to the left, either. With a little better play from the inside linebackers, the Texans could have the best run defense in the league, and Clowney is a big reason why. If he can continue his stellar run-game performance and become a more consistent pass rusher, he could become the player we all thought he would be coming out of college.

Give what more time? I'm not saying what will happen in the future but to THIS POINT in his career (meaning today!) he is looking like one of the worst #1 picks of all time. Not sure why you want to debate that. Admitting he is currently on pace to be one of the worst ever doesn't mean he will for sure end up there.

And even if he ends up very good, he still has to be so good that it makes up for such little production over his first 21 games. I don't see how people don't get how this affects O'Brien. First overall pick in a loaded draft is a huge asset, and he has gotten very little from it. Same with STL and Robinson at 2. Texans compounded it by missing in round 2

Coulda woulda shoulda hot take blah blah blah; coaches and GMs get paid to be right, and fired when wrong. He could have had Mack and Carr. Zero sum league. He's on the wrong side of it
