We can debate until the cows come home as to why #SackCity has become #OneSackCity, but I was curious as to how big of an impact sacks actually play for our D.
Last season we faced 171 drives, allowing 39 TDs and 18 FGs.
We sacked the QB on 49 of those drives allowing 3 TDs and 7 FGs on those 49 drives.
We didn't sack the QB on 122 drives, allowing 36 TDs and 11 FGs on those drives.
In essence on drives where we got to the QB we gave up 0.86 points per drive (assuming 7 for a TD, 3 for a FG (ignoring 2 PAT)), when we didn't we gave up 2.34 points per drive.
This season our none sack drive D has been only slightly worse, 2.40 point per drive.
What that means is the difference between #SackCity and #OneSackCity keeping all other things the same is the difference between the 13th scoring D (where we were last year) and the 27th scoring D.
Sorry I was bored :coffee:.
