Michael Strahan’s single-season sack record has stood for 15 years.
His 22.5-sack output may not be the standard forever, though, if you ask outside linebacker Von Miller.
And if it does fall, Strahan’s mark could be left far behind. Following Wednesday’s practice, Miller entertained the thought that a player could reach 30 sacks, and he broke down the path to that number for a player of his or Oakland’s Khalil Mack’s caliber.
“Thirty? I think it is [attainable],” Miller said. “First off, you’ve got to come out -- let me think about it. You’ve got to get 10 in that first month. You’ve got to get 10 your first month, which is doable. You get two-and-a-half, you get two-and-a-half the next game, two-and-a-half the next game after that. You might miss one game, but then you get two-and-a-half [the next game].
