We’ve written in the past that the measuring point of a decent season of sackage is 40 and for the first time since 2007 the Pats hit the mark this year.
According to official NFL gamebooks, opposing quarterbacks had 620 dropbacks against the Patriots this season, and were hit by New England defenders a total of 88 times, to go along with 40 sacks (14th in the league) for 274 yards.
