I was told you cant go by sacks. What line of reasoning are we using today? Sacks dont mean much or they do? I cant keep up with the changing talking points
Sacks matter. There are obviously other metrics besides just sacks though. You pointed out sacks to show he wasn't that good and other people pointed out some of the other metrics. I think the simple fact the Bengals did the 1 year extension show there was a solid argument to the metrics that people mentioned. Otherwise the Bengals wouldn't have done anything. Problem is now all the stats are too good to just slap a 1 year deal on it.
