Bills Mailbag: What’s been key to the defense’s early-season success?

‘The biggest factor in the Bills’ defensive success is they league the lead in sacks with 16, but have only had to blitz 17.3% of the time, according to News charting, which is the lowest rate in the league. If a team can get sufficient pressure with just four rushers, it can cover with seven defenders. That explains how the Bills were able to keep Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle from going off, and sack Tua Tagovailoa four times (for context, he had been sacked just once in three games coming into Week 4). McDermott has clearly found his rhythm as a defensive play-caller, knowing when to dial up the pressure, but not overdoing it.’
