Your info is incorrect. The official all-time career sack leader is Tedy Bruschi and the single season sack leader is Terrell Suggs. Everyone knows and understands why this is, but let's not pretend that it isn't so because we might not like it.

I'd be remiss if I didn't take this opportunity to point out that Billy Jackson was a beast. That guy rarely gets mentioned in these discussions about sacks, but he was crazy good. Penalized in notoriety because he played in Starkville, I suppose.
