Myles Garrett Enters Bills Matchup One-and-a-Half Sacks From NFL Record

Buffalo signals a quick-release, run-heavy plan to reduce his opportunities.

Overview

  • Garrett has 21.5 sacks and needs 1.5 to surpass the single-season mark of 22.5 shared by Michael Strahan and T.J. Watt.
  • Josh Allen acknowledged the storyline, saying he enjoys highlight tapes but not being part of someone else's, and he has been sacked 33 times this season.
  • Left tackle Dion Dawkins said the Bills have a specific plan to slow Garrett, while team observers outlined tactics of chips, double teams, fast throws and more rushing.
  • Next Gen Stats notes Garrett has converted 33.6% of his pressures into sacks, among the best rates since 2018, and he has recorded a sack in eight straight games.
  • Buffalo is 10-4 and jockeying for playoff position as Cleveland sits 3-11, and Garrett says he hopes to reach the milestone at home in a Browns win.
