Richard Dent has long been on record saying that an NFL team needs to have three great pass rushers for that defense to be a truly dominant unit.
The Bears legend and Pro Football Hall of Famer was a part of a “Rule of Three” unit in his day, teaming with Dan Hampton and Steve McMichael to form a dangerous trio that was a driving force behind their Super Bowl victory after the 1985 season.
We see many teams applying this approach today, and Dent’s old team is certainly one of them. But where do the Bears stand among the rest of the league in terms of three-headed pass-rushing units?
