I think the problem for a DE type player is that the more hype he gets the more teams will scheme for him and the more his stats will suffer because of how good he is. You can double DEs and run away from them, which teams will surely do. Now this might be good for SC's defense as a whole because when offenses have to scheme against one player it creates problems for them elsewhere. But it might keep Clowney from having the kind of stats a defensive player would need to win what's basically an offensive award.

So you're saying that our opponents didn't scheme against Clowney much last season??
