Steve Spagnuolo explains the stat that motivates the Chiefs’ defense

There's probably no one answer to this, but what are you seeing as the difference between being able to generate considerable pressure at times and not quite getting home? What's that step in between? It's a step away, right? It's a half a second to get off. It's a quicker counter move. I mean, if you really want to get down to the detail, because our guys have been there. Would we like to have more sacks? Yes. But I still like the fact that we get the quarterback off the spot. We make them throw off time or off balance. And if we can keep doing that, that's a good thing. I mean, our guys got a lot of pride. But we do talk about we stay away from the S-words, stats and standings, and try to deal in the W-words, trying to get wins. And hopefully, if the guys continue to do it, hopefully those will come. But you don't stay away from the S-word of sack, I guess, do you? Well, when I say that, we all want them. But it's a stat. You know the stat I like? The stat that we harp on is the one stat that helps our football team win the game. That's points allowed. And on offense, the one stat for them is points scored. You know, and then special teams both. But I'm being honest when I say that. Like, I don't get – I never put up what we're ranked in this. I don't do that. I mean, I just go on to the next team. I don't always put up points allowed, though. And just one other quick thing is this. I mean, George was pretty responsible for creating that interception on the last play. At the end. Is that a good illustration of why that's? That's a great illustration of being a relentless pass rusher. I mean, we covered a lot of people, obviously. They had to throw the sideline. And that's him. You know, most of his pressures and his success comes because he is relentless. He did that way back when he was in college. Yeah, let's keep doing that and get some of those.
