I think the sack numbers were somewhat flukey. Sack totals fluctuate wildly for even some of the best pash rushers.
You also have to consider that the pass rush got much stronger after adding Ingram and moving Jones back inside. If they'd started the year with that, I'd imagine the sack total would have been much better and the pressure rate would have been through the roof.
I'd still like to see a little more pressure without needing to blitz, but this narrative of a dogshit DL just isn't true.
