In general, the Seattle scoring team is a joke, but I was okmwith this one, and wondering which player would get the sack. Thought the split was fair.
Avril hits Taylor around the ankles and trips him up...Taylor is already stumbling away when Clark comes in and finishes bringing him down. Avril's hit effectively created Clark's opportunity. If there was such a thing as a sack and an assisted sack, this play would define it. Closest they have is splitting.
Bigger issue is how, without warning, six to eight stat crews have decided to switch from "award a tackle and an assist" to "award two assists and no tackles" in cases where multiple players are involved. At least Avril and Clark GOT half-sacks. If the play had been a tackle, neither of them would have gotten one in Seattle.
