My Primary Complaint: Defensive stat redundancy

A big defensive play is a big deal. But keep in mind, a sack is a tackle for a loss and a quarterback hit, so a defender who gets to the quarterback gets a three for one. And an interception is a pass defensed.



Previous complaints:

Too polite hype.

Quick rematches.

Award campaigning.
