If these QB's were sacked 9 times, and had 3rd and 20"s, then they'd have the yards too. I don't think you can put everything on the yards. Most were shocked he was able to amass 300+ yards given the score and beating he took, but not many really paid attention to how. Much of that was makeup yardage from the sacks. Didn't really lead to much else tho but stats. Which shouldn't be considered Championship ball.
Taking a beating but still fighting and in the end managing to have more points on the board is as accurate a description of a champion as you're gonna find bud.
You're literally saying overcoming a good opponent is somehow bad. Or you expect domination of any opponent to be impressed maybe?
What if he only ran the balll after he got sacked, cuz statistically, the sack yardage counts against his rushing total. Or it used to anyway.
If the sacks were not mostly jail breaks, I'd be more mad about them and I'd see your point.
He wasn't taking indecisive fat ben sacks, he was getting murdered at the snap.
Being a Bengals fan is like being in love with a narcissist. It's a brutal, emotionally abusive relationship but I never leave and just keep making excuses for them.
