I believe he and Mike Vrabel are the only guys in the BB era with the Pats to record double digit sacks in a season.

You are correct Mayoclinic. Vrabel did it once in 2007. ( Before that you would have to go back to McGinest, who did it once in 1995, and Tippet in 1987 ! ).

Not quite sure of the relavance of his 10 sacks, If memory serves me correct most of these sacks came in bunches in games we had in hand.

He was pretty un remakable for the entire season. Pats need some serious help at OLB, Banta Cain is a situational player at best.

Try a month ago. I think it was the day before or the day after the Texans game.

If nothing else, it just feels like a nice milestone. At least it is a milestone that's harder to obtain than a 1,000 yards rushing or receiving in a season.

He was the only player creating consistent pressure from the pass rush for the Patriots. Whilst acknowledging a need to upgrade the linebackers on the whole, to call a 10 sack season unremarkable is ridiculous.

Imagine what having a Seymour in front of him could have done for both the pass and run defenses. TBC is definitely a keeper.

And to call a 10 sack performance unremarkable with Burgess as the passrushing DE is beyond ridiculous.
