No you didn't. You've mentioned it a hundred times in this thread. Actually, you said, originally, that he "tore" his MCL. When called out, it changed to a sprain.
Regardless, nobody is saying that sacks are the end-all be-all in defense. You're cherry picking that argument. People are pointing out that pressure % between the two teams is fairly comparable. Combine that with a home game for KC, the increase in actual sacks, and the fact that NE has been below average on the road against far lesser teams...we tend to think that we have an advantage.
