Title: Cameron Wake is a beast!! Post by: CF DolFan on July 23, 2012, 09:06:40 am Interesting stat I saw this morning in Peter King's MMQB column.
Miami's Cameron Wake led the league, drawing 13 offensive holding calls last year. Nobody else had more than seven.

Doubled? This is the NFL. I would think anytime you double the stats of the next best guy in anything positive it's pretty amazing!! Title: Re: Cameron Wake is a beast!!

To be held that many times and still get the number of sacks he gets is pretty impressive.

I haven't picked it up and turned it a bunch of different way to analyze it, but at first glance, it certainly does seem to be a good indicator of just how effective of a pass rusher Wake is. Net yardage loss is a good thing for a defense, whether it comes in the form of a sack or a penalty against the offense.

That stat has existed since January. Need something to talk about until the games start in Sept. Title: Re: Cameron Wake is a beast!!
