some QBs like aaron rodgers will take a sack instead of throwing the ball away. rodgers had a 50 sack season twice in his career and has a sack career of 6.96. this is reflected on his interception rate (which is the best in the nfl). he just prefers to take a sack to attempt a pass that could be intercepted -- and everybody looks at those int/td numbers and don't look a lot at sack numbers (because sacks are usually not the qb fault).
