NFL Honors 2016: Will J.J. Watt Win His Third NFL Defensive Player Of The Year Award Tonight?

The NFL's version of the Oscars comes to your living room tonight, complete with a horrible red carpet show before the ceremony. Normally, I'd eschew paying the slightest bit of attention to the manufactured festivities, but your Houston Texans have a certain individual up for a certain award that merits our attention.

J.J. Watt has already been named Defensive Player of the Year by the Sporting News and by the Pro Football Writers of America for his performance during the 2015 season. He should be a lock to win his third Associated Press Defensive Player of the Year award tonight, but it's possible voter fatigue rears its ignorant head after Watt won for what he did in 2012 and 2014. It happened to Michael Jordan in the NBA MVP race, so it can certainly happen to J.J. Watt in the NFL DPOY race.

I am admittedly chock full of bias on the topic of whether J.J. should walk away with yet another trophy this evening; indeed, I'm still hacked off he didn't win NFL MVP last year. Expect a rousing post one way or the other after the award is announced tonight.

An open thread for you to talk about the show as it airs and who won what will post at 7:45 p.m. CST. Until then, make your case for or against J.J. Watt as 2015 NFL Defensive Player of the Year, as well as any other thoughts on who should win various honors, below.
