The NFL record for sacks in a game is 12, which has been done three times - in each case the quarterback under centre for the opposing team lost.
However at least two quarterbacks have been sacked 11 times in a game and still won (there may be others further back in history, but it is hard to tell because the NFL did not keep sack statistics that far back):
Since 1970, three QBs have been sacked a record of 12 times in a single game:2007 Week 4 - Donovan McNabb1985 Week 4 - Warren Moon1980 Week 8 - Bert Jones

Through 14 games of the 2009 season, for QBs that have started the entire season that is Peyton Manning of the Indianapolis Colts who has been sacked 10 times. Tom Brady of the Patriots is next with 15 sacks and Drew Brees of the Saints is third with 19 sacks.
Johnny Unitas
David Carr of the Houston Texans, was sacked 68 times during the season. He was sacked about 4.5 times a game.
Gabriel
John Elway was sacked a career-high 12 times in a single game during a matchup against the New York Jets on October 25, 1992. This record for the most sacks in a game is notable in NFL history and highlights the challenges he faced as a quarterback. Despite this, Elway continued to have a successful career, leading the Denver Broncos to two Super Bowl victories.
