Demarcus ware had 117 sacks with the boys so your list is clearly edited from reality

 

[DarkVader33]

Martin-Andrie
Lilly-White

How dare you leave Micah off.

You didn't see my note explaining that DeMarcus Ware was an OLB in the 3-4.

The OP clearly stated that we were to pick two DEs and two DTs.

That is the reality.

You have to adjust that it's a 3-4 and count them as edge and interior DLs.

Really?

Which OLB or do 3-4 defenses automatically send in 5 pass rushers?

Overall it would not be a fair comparison because OLBs have more complex duties. Sometimes, they pass rush. Sometimes they pass defend.

No, you don’t.

OP created the rules and they weren’t scheme or DC specific

 

[Whirlwin]

Charles Haley, my opinion, there’s no question about it, and we’ve had some great ones

 

[Whirlwin]

Charles Haley recorded 34.0 sacks in 63 games for Dallas,
ranking 9th on the franchise's all-time list. While players like DeMarcus Ware (117.0 sacks)
Micah Parsons have higher raw numbers,
Haley's true impact came from his relentless pressure, versatility, and the attitude he brought to the defense

Compare that to how many games they played,

I would argue Haley's attitude was the number one factor
he scared the crap out of his own team mates
you did not DARE dog it with him around

 

[speedkilz88]

No, you don’t.

The OP has Ware on his first team.

Lol

Well screw me then

Nailed it, brother!

 

[SFloridaCowboy]

After all the postings, it is a fact that Harvey Martin in 1977 had the best defensive pass rushing season in Cowboys' history, 23 sacks in 14 games, NFL defensive MVP. That team won the Super Bowl, with Staubach, Tony Dorsett, Drew Pearson leading the offense.

Where is Ware?

Edit: I'm guessing he's LB not DLine.
