(S22) - PT1 - Runnin’ Down a Dream

[MrStennett]

This is absolutely the case for Thorian Skarsgard. He is chasing something that isn't a league record, or even a team record. He's hunting down a personal milestone, but it definitely has a place in league history. As we stand right now, three games into the season, Skarsgard is seven sacks away from 100 for his career. There are currently only four players in league history that have achieved this prestigious feat, and Skarsgard is looking to put his name fifth. The problem is that he only has one sack through three games this season, putting him on pace for possibly five sacks. That would leave him at 97, three short of what he's shooting for. He was hoping to hang up his cleats at the end of the season, seeing as how he's currently 36, but if he doesn't get the 100 sacks he's searching for, he can't allow himself to quit. He's absolutely hellbent on hitting that number. It's not just a personal goal for him, but a marker for his career. As someone who didn't even put on football pads until he got to college, it would prove that he was truly one of the best defensive linemen to ever gear up in the NSFL and that is exactly what he's trying to prove.
