GBU: Fried Seachicken Tastes Good

Jamo calling his shot “I’m taking this to the crib”.

Aiden was credited with 10 pressures in this game, though he had no tackles or sacks.....What exactly is a "pressure"? within 5 feet of the QB when he throws the ball?

[Blue Lagoon58]

Nope.

[CGVT]

What counts as an NFL pressure?
A Quarterback Pressure is awarded to a defender who either forces the QB to move off his initial drop back point to avoid contact, contacts the QB in the act of throwing or has the QB in his grasp at the time an Intentional Grounding penalty is called. Only one QB Pressure per play may be awarded to the defence.

PFF has pressures as sacks, hits/knockdowns and hurries, with hurries fitting the definition above from CGVT. So depending upon what resource you’re using the numbers can be a bit different and there is at least some component of judgment.

The “only one pressure per play” thing seems odd, as you’ll often see multiple guys pushing the pocket or converging on the QB at the same time.

I think it's more that they only award the first pressure, presumably the logic being that once the QB is taken out of sequence, he is "under pressure" from that point on.
