You hit basically on the bolded point I was making - Dunlap needs to "get home" more.
Edit - You mention JJ Watt with batted passes. He actually has fewer than Dunlap (55 v 59). However, Watt has 16.5 more sacks than Dunlap in 36 fewer games played.
One is not related to the other, he could not get home and then not bat balls I guess. Your first post made it seem as if his inability to get home was tied to his skill of batting balls in your mind but in reality they aren't related in any way. If he could just magically get better at winning pass-rushing reps he would have cost a lot more lol.
Yea, I was using a per game stat for his batted balls to keep it a fair comparison since he had played more games. Either way, no one is saying he is JJ Watt just that one guy gets a ton of praise for doing it (JJ SWATT) versus another guy who it appears is being criticized for it.
