    Clowney finished the season with 52 tackles and only six sacks, but was quite a disruption during their playoff loss to the Patriots.

    Mercilus’ stats were up there with Clowney as he had 53 tackles and 7.5 sacks.

    You have to figure with all of the pass rushing weapons the Texans have, one person isn’t going to be able to get the majority of the sacks.
