NET: Pass sacked perc (Off − Def)
P + N
About this stat ↓What Pass sacked perc (Off − Def) is
Sack rate taken minus sack rate forced. Lower is better — the rate version, less swayed by how often each side threw.
Lower is better. It is a rate, so a team's number does not grow with games played. Source: P + N.
In 2018 the Steelers led at -4.35; the league average was 0.13.
