A list of puns related to "Mike Reid"
Deacon Jones is 3rd all-time in unofficial sacks. He played in the 14-game era, so he and many others are at a disadvantage when compared to players in the league from 1978+, who played two extra games per season (+14%) over their careers. But Deacon Jones was a holy terror. In his prime years from 1964-1970, he had 22.0, 19.0, 16.0, 21.5, 22.0, 15.0, and 12.0 sacks...all in 14 game seasons. Although he's third in career sacks based on volume, he is head-and-shoulders above everyone else using my metric, the Sack Index. His sack index of 37.2% is more than two points higher than the 2nd best all-time, Reggie White (35.0%).
Recently I wrote about the Sack Index, which I created to compare players across eras. In my first post, I calculated the sack index for the top 50 in all time sacks. Now I extended it out to the top 400 all time (40+ career sacks). You can read more about the reason and methodology for this metric here. But essentially what Iβm doing is taking a playerβs career sacks per game and normalizing to the era they played in.
An example where this made a significant difference is with DeMarcus Ware and Mark Gastineau. Both players averaged 0.78 sacks per game. However, over the course of Wareβs career (2005-2016), the league averaged only 2.26 sacks per game, giving him a sack index of 34.4% (0.78/2.26). Over Gastineauβs career, the league averaged 2.56 sacks per game, so his sack index is 30.7% (0.78 / 2.56). Both players have the same sacks per game, but when normalized to their era, Ware is ranked 4th all time, and Gastineau is ranked 19th all time.
It's important to note that this is unofficial sack leaders; the NFL recognizes sacks starting in 1982. But thanks to the work of John Turney and Nick Webster, we now have sack data going back to 1960.
This first chart shows the 30 percenters. Only 21 players in history, with 40+ sacks have a Sack Index of 30% or above. Some players on this list who have n
