Did we like lose all game footage prior to 1982 or something? Is there a reason we can’t retroactively calculate sack statistics for older games?

Also, per Wikipedia: “Prior to “sack”, the term “dump” was often used, as the NFL’s statistical office recorded all sacks under “dumping the passer”.”

Bring back Quarterback Dumps!!!
