Using QB pressures as a measure of pass rushing ability is like using pass rating to judge a QB. All it means is that he didn't get to the QB in time. What constitutes a QB 'pressure' anyway? He was around the guy when he passed the ball?
He's a top rusher, I'll give him that. I honestly didn't think he'd be what he's become. but he hasn't turned a game around or dominated a game defensively like other top pass rushers in the league. Most feared pass rusher in the league? I doubt that.

It's not that he just gets alot of pressures. He gets a ridiculous amount of heat and hits on the QB. Boss Chiefs post from earlier says it best....
according to that site (from a well respected source), Hali has a higher combined number of sacks, pressures and hits on qbs than any teams top DUO of pass rushers in the NFL.
If that doesn't get one in the discussion for top pass rusher. I don't know what else will.
