Last year there were 17 defensive ends and outside linebackers that had at least 8 sacks, 1 tackle for loss, 1 pass defensed, 1 forcred fumble and 1 combined tackle(s).

Trey was 1st in sacks.
Trey was 2nd in tackles for loss.
Trey was 10th in total tackles.
Trey was 1st in quarterback hits.
Trey was (T) for 2nd in passes defensed. 
Trey was (T) for 3rd in forced fumbles.

Here's one more quick reality. The Bengals made the Super Bowl and back to back AFCCGs with Tee Higgins and Trey on the team, so i'm not sure how your sarcastic '9-8 team' is even remotely relevant.

the team has gone 9-8 the past two seasons ....lol@ "sarcastic."..dude.. our father was one of the team physicians in the 70s and 80aside from  two games that I can think of we have attended almost every home game the past 40 years..and one Superbowl..We love our bengals..The reality is this team has not done well the past two years..Its not sarcastic ..its not a  personal attack ..its fact....And with all of Treys sacks..how did the defense do?  And I think this is where your frustration with me comes into play..Football is a team sport and there has been something amiss with our team the past two years.... and aside from Burrow and Chase...I don't think that anyone on the team is beyond reproach....I get that some on here love certain players and herein lies another difference..These players are going to be multimillionaires wherever they play,  they are going to continue to be friends with one another, they are going to have vacation homes in Miami Beach or France, they will be driving 500k cars...their kids and their grandkids will never have to work again..they will be fine even if they dont play for  our team..And I feel that some on this Board feel that if players leave our organization they will be relegated to Siberia and digging ditches in minus twenty degree weather..And finally, we as human beings have different opinions on everything..Heres a take..I hope that my opinion on retaining Higgins and Trey is absolutely incorrect and this team goes to the Superbowl this year..And if so..I will apologize to certain members on this Board..with great joy..Have a great day
