If you think it’s pointless,
then why don’t you drop it???

Sacks are important. The end

- jdfitz77

Interceptions are important.

Tre White only got 3.

This means he was bad. Especially for a top 3 paid CB

It does not matter that he had a ton of pass breakups and QB's didn't throw his way, because an interception is better than a pass breakup

**This is how ridiculous you sound

It's the exact same thing.

Pass rushers get sacks

DB's get picks

So you somehow think sacks are more important than getting a turnover

Having your #1 pass rusher provide “average” numbers does blow

If Eichel provided “average” points for all the Centers in the league,
would you be happy with that?
I bet not

Hilariously bad take beady

And those worse players have more goals than are 9m winger. Hey I agree he should be playing with different players. But stop with he hasn't had any chances. If he cashed some of his chances he would have 5 goals by know, Jesus on Saturday he was set up perfectly by Olofsson but he forgot Hockey is played with a stick.
- Buff36


Someone convinced me that if Sam had passed skinner the puck, skimmers hands would have worked.

Basically, its olofsson's fault for passing and not shooting.
Should have expected jeff to not expect a pass from him.

It was 5 x 5, skimmer probably figured olofsson sucks, so I'm not a gonna be ready.

So do Interceptions

Hyde had 1

He blows, right?

Or...maybe more than 1 thing matters, and basing your opinion on a singular statistic like sacks, that if you’re amazing at it you get 10-11 of them during an entire season.

Or you can continue to be stubborn and wrong

Sacks & interceptions are totally different
You say I’m stubborn, yet u refuse to let this invalid comparison go

A pass rusher can get a sack on potentially every pass play
That’s just not the same for a DB with INTs

Pressures are nice, sacks are better
There’s no way to reasonably argue against that

I don't really care how Olofsson gets his points, would we all like more 5 vs 5 points, Sure, but he's helping his team either way.

I agree BOTH are good
I’ve literally said “pressures are nice” about half a dozen times

I just think sacks are important as well
Idk why this is so controversial to want your DEs to get more than 5 sacks a season???

- jdfitz77

team sacks in regular season

bills 38
chiefs 32

Here’s you -

“Jerry Hughes is bad because he doesn’t get sacks”

Therefore sacks are the only thing that matters

So what’s the only thing that matters for DB’s if it’s not interceptions?

Some Richard head on FB is trying to "help me out" by pointing out that Skinner is a liability in overtime, which is why he never sees the ice.

How many overtime goals did that man have for us when Phail was the coach? Isn't that the name of the game? To WIN?

Meanwhile, Eichel gets a pass for every turnover he's made.
