Peko was 7th in the league in tackles among DT/NTs.

How is that not a fact?
Another fact is that DTs that get blocked don't make tackles. Shedding blockers and getting to the ball carrier is a very important skill for DTs, and Peko is still among the best in the league at this.
Total tackles is not the only way to grade DTs, but it also can not be ignored. DTs that constantly get blown up and blocked off the ball don't make tackles.
