What is a "sack"?
A sack in football happens when the quarterback, the player who throws the ball, is tackled behind the line of scrimmage before they has a chance to throw the ball. This usually happens when the defense breaks through the offensive line and catches the quarterback. A sack can result in a loss of yards for the team with the ball, making it harder for them to score. Sacks are an important part of the game because they stop the quarterback from passing and can give the defending team a better chance to take control of the game.
Example
The defensive end made a crucial sack in the final minutes of the game.
The linebacker burst through the offensive line to sack the quarterback.
