Sacks are definitely the tell all for a defensive tackle....
Dorsey was the best defensive tackle we have had in a long time...heck maybe ever, but using sacks as an indicator for a defensive tackle makes me think you know nothing about football.

I know there is more to playing defensive tackle than sack's and tackles for loss. Taking on double teams, maintaining leverage, and gap control to stuff a hole is key. Spilling the play outside for the linebacker or plugging a hole in hopes that the play is a loss even if you don't make the tackle. That's all fine and dandy. But Dorsey was all over the field. He did all that and STILL was a freak individually. He wreaked havoc. We just haven't had a force like that since he left. That's all im saying.

It Is a good example of how dominant and disruptive he was though. I used to just watch him at the snap play after play because he just blew guys off the line like rag dolls. That line was nasty. As a unit I think 2011 was just as good.
