    I was looking over some defensive statistics today and it got me thinking about how they record defensive statistics. Please correct me if I'm wrong:

    The "tackles" statistic includes tackles for loss and sacks in the total number.

    "Tackles for loss" also includes sacks in the total number.

    That's correct, isn't it?
