Sack Record falling in 2023

[6Lombardis]

This may have been noted last year or recently, but 2023 will likely be the year both Cam and TJ pass Debo for the Steeler career sack record. Their totals are below, but consider the amazing pace for Watt. I've included Highsmith for additional context:

Player #Games. #Sacks
Harrison 177 80.5
Heyward 183 78.5
Watt 87 77.5
Highsmith 49 22.5

TJ has amazing stats.....and are there any other interior DL, close to Cam? I guess Aaron Donald would be, but there cannot be many.

Crazy to think Watt would already be in the mid 80s if he was healthy all year.

Aaron Smith has 44 sacks in 159 games

Aaron Donald has 103 sacks. Suh has 71.5 sacks. Fletcher Cox has played on less year and has 65 sacks. Chris Jones also has 65 sacks, but in just 7 seasons.

So the present player list is Donald, Heyward, Jones and then the rest. Those would be close to HoF stats, i'd think.

Jarvis ?

Wrong thread, you'll find him top of the most games per sack list.

Also crazy to think how many James would’ve had if the league hadn’t turned a blind eye to holding him…easily over 100

Can’t tell Roger how it is and not face the backlash

Jarvis ?

He was never used properly, obviously

THIS, a new form of blocking illegally was perfected and approved against JAMES HARRISON. At the time of his play, it was only allowed against him for several years.

Today it is a common practice allowed.
