tackled in the backfield for a loss. I think you are confusing yourself here Fred and me right along with you lol

Actually I think we agreeing about the differences between a "sack" and a "tackle for loss".  I am just pointing out how people use differet terms for the same thing.

For example if "TFL's" were completely different from "Sacks" (which I think they should be) then there should be a term/stat for (TFL + Sacks).

In college they use the term "stuffs" for what we are calling "TFL" then they define "tackles-for-loss" as "sacks plus stuffs".

And as I pointed out earlier, two of the biggest sources of stats (ESPN, ProFootballReference) don't calculate "tackles-for-loss" the same way.

So it is no wonder peolpe are confused.
