Question. If a DT makes a sack does that also count as a tackle in the game or is it a seperate stat?

Though I will say on both my teams the strong safety is easily the leader in tackles. Is that reflective of "real" football. I'm not even sure and am too lazy too do a deep research. It also seems that DT's seem to be a little light on the number of tackles that they make during the season. My tackles seem to have mid 20's for tackles or are on pass for similar numbers. Seems to be a bit light there but that may reflect the pass happy offenses that seem to dominate these leagues I guess.Question. If a DT makes a sack does that also count as a tackle in the game or is it a seperate stat?

I'd be curious to see the league leaders in tackles to see what positions are leading here in the test leagues. I've noticed my safeties with a large number of tackles as well.

In my days of playing fantasy football in a league where we had individual defensive players instead of team defense I recall there were some strong safeties that really racked up the tackles. But generally speaking it's gonna be the linebackers that dominate the leaderboard.I'd be curious to see the league leaders in tackles to see what positions are leading here in the test leagues.

Both safety positions seem to be credited with tackles at a rate that is 2-3X's higher than linebackers which seems to be pretty high. Zeta teams only passed just over 25% more than they ran so it's not like teams were throwing the ball all over the field to account for that type of discrepancy.

How far away is this from coming to the main football site?

am I missing something? I see the tkl numbers on the individual cards but a can't find them on the league stat pages.

Regarding the safeties getting credit for so many tackles, should we infer that this means their role is more critical than we may have realized and that linebackers may not be as critical given the discrepancy in tackle totals for the two positions?

Nope, you're not missing anything. Not added yet.Regarding the safeties getting credit for so many tackles, should we infer that this means their role is more critical than we may have realized and that linebackers may not be as critical given the discrepancy in tackle totals for the two positions?

ETA- FS stats. the safeties do seem to be making the majority of the tackles.

my top three tacklers are my FF (155 in 16 games), SS (96 in 11) and my SOLB (105 in 13). the two DT are at 32 and 29, respectively, and the guy who starts at ILB in the 3-4 but doesn't start in the 4-3 had 1 in 16 games, which seems weird to me. I guess we didn't play much 3-4?ETA- FS stats. the safeties do seem to be making the majority of the tackles.

I've always felt FS was one of the important positions, didn't realize that SS was as well!

I'd felt like my teams were better when I had a top flight ss but of course never had any real stats to back it up. If these tackles are a true representation of what's going on then I might need to tinker with my draft settings a bit.

I've already adjusted my depth charts. :lol:
I've always prioritized SS but I have often tended to fill FS with the worst of my 'cover' guys. looks like that needs to change.

Those just seem wrong to me.

My starting safeties are both averaging 10+ tackles a game in BPFL and last year in the ZFL my SS had 174 and my FS 131.Those just seem wrong to me.

I would think that the top tacklers should be LB, but I have nothing to back that up. i'd think that SS would be up there somewhere though.

My Defensive linemen are getting nothing. 33 of the top 40 tacklers in the NFL last year were LB, including 29 of the top 30, the rest were safeties.[Edited on 5-7-2014 by tworoosters]

yeah, my d-ine is getting about the same as my corners, which also seems off to me.

Right now they are helping to show me where problems in the system may be.
