    Fitz rushing yards

    Fitz ended the night with 88 yards rushing. He got 76 on the last offensive play. All that time spent in Allen hall tells me he only had 12 yards rushing other than that play. It sure seemed like he had more than 12 yards rushing before that.

    I believe sacks count as negative rushing yards.

    Yes they do, and he had like 25 yards in sacks, maybe more. Seems like I remember one that was 21 yards by itself.

    I knew sacks counted negative but didn't realize there were that many yards in sacks. Makes sense.

    I thought sacks counted as a "team rush".

    No. Against qb rushing. In the pros it counts against pass yards

    I think "team rush " applies only when qb takes a knee at the end of the game.

    No wonder Eli is averaging only 12 yards passing a game**

    NFL sacks have no impact on qb's individual passing yards.

    Correct. I worded it poorly. College it goes on rushing stats. Both team and individual. Pro it only counts on the team stats. Yes
