16 sacks for a bad team, or more than all our defense ends combined. (Or any
combination of defensive line starters)
Wasn't Derricks fault the team stunk anymore then it was Kearses fault (at
600k per sack) that we stunk. That production was needed here. The Simon
thing is easier to understand, he wanted to be overpaid so despite his
better fit in our system (and more productivity) it wasn't worth it. Our
defense was awful for a good stretch.
