Unbelievable NFL Sack Record: Can Anyone Ever Break This Season’s Crushing Mark?

T-7. 21.0 sacks – Chris Doleman, Minnesota Vikings (1989)
Just three places down from White in the NFL-record rankings for sacks is Chris Doleman (150.5 career sacks, fifth overall), but one season stands out for him. In his first seven seasons with the Vikings, Doleman only once bettered more than 11.0 sacks – in 1989 when he racked up a whopping 21.0.
He would go on to record 14.5 sacks for the Vikings in 1992, and 15 in 1998 with the San Francisco 49ers, but 1989 was his finest showing in a stellar career. Like others in this list, his best showing came in the final week of the regular season as he produced 4.0 sacks against the Cincinnati Bengals.
