[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 507118"] One would assume those are "hits", otherwise I wouldn't know what a "hit" that isn't a "sack" would look like. I suppose you could "hit" a QB, he bounces off of it, then throws a TD or runs to daylight, but I sure wouldn't count it. If the result is not factored in I don't see the point...it's just business as usual. I would say over the years there have been enough inconsequential hits on Roethlisberger to make the point. The worst thing a defense could do against Favre is hit him in the first series...all that accomplished was jarring loose his gyroscope. I'd be disinclined to score a hit unless it was particularly violent or the QB is visibly rattled. I'm reminded of the QB (I wish I could remember who it was) who wandered into the defenses huddle after getting drilled. I want to say Rivers but that could be wrong. Now that's a hit. If the intended direction of the pass is not altered in some obvious way or the QB is not taken hard to the ground, I wouldn't call it a hit. But what does PFF count, and do they do it consistently from analyst to analyst? Who knows? What do the purveyors of these stats say it is? A shove, a glancing blow, an arm tackle resulting in a flop? That's just business as usual. Guys who are affected by that are on the bench or out of the league in short order. Correct that...they get cut in college. The point is, we don't know what they count. [/QUOTE]
