1. In order to be sacked over 500 times, one must be a damned good quarterback.

Longevity is the key to this stat. Roethlisberger often stands in the pocket too long because he is so big and strong. Brady isn't a mobile quarterback and that lends itself to more sacks.
Yeah, it's probably an unwanted record, but they will not be remembered for that one stat. They will be remembered as The Goat and a Hall of Fame, Super Bowl winning quarterback.
