However, I think stats can be skewed. Situations affect them. There is a difference between a sack when a team needs a stop and a sack when a team is winning and the competition is weak. Based solely on my memory it feels like he has a habit of not showing up in big spots, or simply disappearing for long stretches.
Anyway I really am not a RK hater. I do appreciate him. I just wish he was more of a "difference maker". Lord knows we need one. Hope he goes on a tear and I have a crow overdose. I really do.
Didnt mean for my overrated comment to cause such a stir. I blame Chico for pointing out that Murph has been picking up for his poor play. It set me off. Lol.

By that same token he can be gameplanned out of making an impact for a long stretch. When your defense can't muster another consistent pass rushing threat it becomes easy to slide protection to Kerrigan's side, chip him with a back, add TE help, or run fakes at him that force him to stay home.
If you saw a Khalil Mack lined up opposite Kerrigan he would look completely different.
