By far, the New York Jets‘ largest advantage over the Buffalo Bills heading into Monday night was their defensive front against Buffalo’s offensive front. And, boy, did the Jets take advantage.
Not only did the Jets sack Allen five times, but more importantly, they applied constant pressure on him throughout the game. New York’s defensive linemen combined for 29 pressures, per PFF, ranking as the third-most among all DL units in Week 1. Their 14.0% pressure rate ranked fifth-best.
Quinnen Williams wasted no time proving that he deserves his $96 million contract.
