Yes he gets credit for actually doing it, it shows up in the box score. I am simply adding more nuance to it. He is more talented than other 4th pass rushers and he takes advantage of being the forgotten man. If he were counted on to be one of the keyed upon pass rushers like he was drafted to be we would be calling him a big disappointment still.

Also, I was never one that called him a bust nor would I now. Just pointing out that the box score can lie, especially when it comes to sacks, and in Dante's case it is fibbing at least. He's doing fine for what his role is, but I've seen plenty of people saying he should get pro bowl consideration and gtfo with that nonsense.
