Stat clarification

“Broncos tied with the Titans for an NFL best 12-sacks allowed. " To what does this refer? Some time period, or series?

Denver gave up twelve sacks during the 2008 NFL season.

some interesting stats. Pretty impressive that Palmer is 3rd in the AFC in touchdown passes since 2005 considering he missed pretty much a whole year.

One stat that always bothers me is “when the rb gets 20+ carries….” That’s always a useless stat. If a RB gets 20 carries, it’s almost always because his team is nursing a lead and is eating up the clock. It has nothing to do with the effectiveness of the RB. The reason it bothers me so much is because idiot announcers like Kornheiser and Theisman love to say “If they want to win, they’ve got to feed this guy the ball!” That’s like saying “If you want to eat 10 pounds of cheese and bratwurst every day, you need a big gut!” If they’ve got a big lead, he’ll get the carries, not the other way around.
