ALSO- if you want to win a cheap bet sometime- ask an "expert" who got more career sacks- Charles Haley or Jim Jeffcoat. Odds are he will pick Haley- and he will be wrong: Haley had 100 career sacks- Jeffcoat had 102.
Sacks weren't an "Official" stat and record for many years. Harvey Martin, Deacon Jones, and many other "sack experts" of years past are not properly recognized for what they added.
