    Statistical Error propagation (2006 Ravens sack totals)

    This is something I've recently run into off and on. A bunch of New Englanders were trying to tell me that the Ravens would be really hurting without AD, just the normal trash...until they talk about the team losing its sack leader,

    I about flipped out, then they went and showed me the patriots site and the cbs site.

    http://commissioner.netscape.com/nfl...yerpage/187661
    http://www.patriots.com/team/index.c...rbio&bio=30839

    Both state that Thomas was the sack leader.

    So then I have to log on to NFL.com and show that, no no, Trevor Pryce had 13. 13 > 11.
    Trevor Pryce had 13: http://www.nfl.com/players/playerpage/4123

    At any rate, I expect a lot more out of....heck an NFL team's official website?

    Kudos to Tony, Aaron, and everyone else writing on this site and others that actually checks on their facts.

    in the little season overview paragraph it does state the was the sack leader but if you look Trevor Pryce on cbs site i shows he has 13 sacks 2 more than Thomas. it has to be a typo maybe they meant lead all line backers since the next paragraph mentions him against linebackers in the league?
    Section 536
    Since 2002

    Losing AD is a big loss but we have enough to keep our defense in the top 5.

    The offense is the side of the ball we need to worry about.

    top 5 we should be in the top 3 still if not number 1, rex ryan will make sure of that, just remember one player does not make a team and this defense creates stars. How man years did it take for AD to become the talent that he is now?

    I think this goes to show how quiet a huge season Pryce had for us last year. 13 sacks, didn't make the Pro Bowl, and no one is talking about him. It's really ridiculous that this guy isn't getting more credit for what he did...he's a major reason our D was better last year than in '05.
