The Broncos pass rush was pretty weak after the trade of Von Miller in 2021. The team still finished 8th in pressure rate on opposing QBs according to pro-football-reference.com, but much of that came from bringing an extra pass rusher, i.e. blitzing. Rare was it when the Broncos were able to drop seven (or eight) into coverage and get pressure on the opposing quarterback. Elite pass rushers generate pressure on about fourteen percent of their pass rush snaps. There were only sixteen players in the NFL above fourteen percent last season and Von Miller was not one of them.
