Michael Bennett says that sacking Cam Newton is like having an orgasm
Being a pass rusher in the NFL must be a frustrating existence. All game you try your hardest to get to the quarterback and come up with the sack, but even the best usually only manage to make it happen a few times per game. With that in mind, the gratification that comes with successfully taking down the QB must feel awesome, and even more so if that QB is a bona fide superstar.
That was confirmed by Seahawks defensive end Michael Bennett in an interview this week. When Bennett was asked what it was like to sack a guy such as Cam Newton, the veteran compared the experience to having sex.
It may be ill-advised to declare an "NFL quote of the year" before preseason has even gotten underway, but it's tough to imagine anything being said that tops that. I think it's also probably safe to assume that it'll be the only comment followed by bizarre sex sounds. Hopefully.
With that in mind, Bennett got to NFL quarterbacks a career-high 10 times last season, so I guess you could say that a belated "congrats on the sacks" is in order.
