What Sack Fumbles Lost is

Sack fumbles lost to the defense. The recovery of a loose ball is close to a coin flip, so this is the fumble count filtered by luck — the forced part is the repeatable part.

Lower is better. It is shown per game, so a team's number does not depend on games played. Source: P + N.
