Myles Garrett Closes In on Sack Record Against BillsJosh Allen

Buffalo enters with playoff stakes, with expectations of a quick-game plan to blunt his rush.

Overview

  • Myles Garrett has 21.5 sacks and needs 1.5 to surpass the single-season mark of 22.5 held by Michael Strahan and T.J. Watt, with a sack in eight straight games.
  • Josh Allen said he hasn’t considered being the quarterback for a record-setting sack and noted he doesn’t like being on other players’ highlight tapes.
  • Reporters anticipate Buffalo will lean on runs, quick releases, double-teams and chip help to limit Garrett, as tackles Dion Dawkins and Spencer Brown discussed preparing for him.
  • The Bills are 10-4 with division positioning on the line and rank second in rushing at 158.5 yards per game, a profile that could cut down Garrett’s pass-rush opportunities.
  • Garrett said it would mean more to notch the milestone against Allen and wants it to come in a Browns win during a 3-11 season with Cleveland already eliminated from playoff contention.
