i hate our tackles as much as the next guy, but the pressures allowed as a raw number is so stupid. the chiefs are a passing team. mahomes threw it 650 times. both tackles played every game.

a handful of teams threw fewer than 500 times. more than 1/3rd of the league had 110 fewer pass attempts.

it should be pressures allowed divided by pass attempts. i guarantee both tackles, as much as i hate them, would come out looking better than they do.
