As has been mentioned by others, pressures are a subjective stat, so different sources will award them differently. And Switzer's staff (the source for your Haley stats) awarded them generously. Chad Hennings was even credited with 30 "pressures" in a season when he had only 4.5 sacks.

In 1996, they credited Tolbert with 37 pressures to go with his 12 sacks. That's 49 "sacks/pressures," right?

So by your own definition, Tolbert was a better pass-rusher in 1996 than DeMarcus Ware was in his best season.

Crazy post of the month - really? Half the posters in the thread probably never saw a live game with Haley and Lett together. If you are under 25, you are disqualified from this thread...

I'm still unsure of where this notion comes from that yelling+screaming+getting in someone's face = championship.

All time greats don't disappear for four straight games.

I guess you missed the seasons where Haley managed 6 sacks (92) and 4 1/2 sacks (93) here.

Landry, Gibbs, Walsh, Dungy used to do that all the time didnt they?

Haley also cussed at his coaches and said he wanted to quit after a regular season game against the Packers in 1995. How is that for leadership?

Jimmy also threatened to cut Haley too in 1992, I think it was halftime of the Denver game that yr when he just ripped him a new one.

I liked Lett, but you could not trust the guy. He was too fragile of a mind to rely on while in Dallas. There was a reason he was not the starter for most of those years in Dallas. He was best coming off the bench because that eased the pressure on him. He was very talented.

If he didnt have a 10 cent head, Lett could have been one of the greats.
